Music reviews of The Gospel Spirit
Music Review: rare Conway country gospel
Rating: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful gospel album from Conway Twitty released at a time when he was on his red-hot streak of enormous hit singles. This CD contains 11 songs recorded in the early 1970's from Conway's only gospel project, WHO WILL PRAY FOR ME/STEAL AWAY. This CD came along in 2004...a cassette copy was in print 11 years prior in 1993 under the original album title of WHO WILL PRAY FOR ME but missing the song "Steal Away". For whatever reasons, this 2004 re-issue is called THE GOSPEL SPIRIT even though it is released on MCA. Each and every song is filled with the right arrangements, of course, to give the album it's gospel over-tones but i'll point out the music is country gospel, the steel guitar being prominent in a lot of the tracks will show a listener this right away. My favorites are "Clinging To a Saving Hand", "Suppertime", "Me and My Neighbors", the sermonizing "Steal Away" which will make one think back to the Hank Williams/Luke the Drifter recordings and then there's the great "The Third Man"; "Lead Us Back To Love" and basically the entire album are great. Oh, i love "Jesus Is a Soul Man" too. The opening song was recorded in 1971 and the remaining tracks, 1972. The album came along in 1973 showing that the album had been in the planning stages for awhile before it's release. This is Conway Twitty gospel country and the reason why it works, in my opinion, is because 90% the music is all arranged like a typical Conway Twitty album of that time period yet with religious lyrics being sung as the only difference. The CD re-issue features a few pictures on a fold-out cover but doesn't tell much at all of the album's original release in 1973.
