View Kevin Nutt's profile |
Scratchy vanity 45s, pilfered field recordings, muddy off-the-radio sounds, homemade congregational tapes and vintage commercial gospel throw-downs; a little preachin', a little salvation, a little audio tomfoolery.
Also available as an MP3 podcast. More info at our Podcast Central page.

"It's a disturbing kind of joy they dispense. It can hardly be tagged as entertainment, though it's often more entertaining than blues or soul or jazz or R&B or any of the other music with which it overlaps. Gospel is altogether more extreme in its depths and in its heights ... always at its best when at its most emotive and cathartic. This is after all, a religious expression about life and death, invariably made under extreme circumstances. Few performers have had it quite so tough as gospel singers and it shows in the way they commit themselves within a song: diamond hard voices from low down on the human scale, rising up against all the odds to transcend the evil days and proclaim a special kind of victory.
"It's not necessarily a pleasurable experience for the uninitiated. Even a childhood steeped in the rites of the gospel church won't always prepare you for the upset created by a certain song or a certain singer at an uncertain moment. For an outsider coming upon the dramatic fervor of gospel unprepared, the disturbance can be utterly overwhelming. Repellent even. 'There's something about the gospel blues,' said Sister Rosetta Tharpe to author Tony Heilbut, 'that's so deep the world can't stand it.'"

At least I didn't take if badly like my friend Bob Youngman did, who took his religion seriously and thought Mr. Nutt was making fun of it. But then, it wouldn't be the only time Bob either perceived irony where none was or missed it where it was. I know our DJ loooves this stuff.
