I’m blogging so much about Andrae Crouch of late because I owe the man a huge debt of gratitude for all he did in developing my love for gospel music. I remember hearing this song when I was a very small boy. My mum used to tape things openly and when she did you could […]
Read More DMCD Songs: If Heaven Was Never Promised – Andrae CrouchOh so you thought I was over the Andrae thing. You thought wrong – again. It’s all good, because it is all good. This Andrae deal is brilliant and when you hear his enthusiasm at the beginning of the track it makes me think about the energy of youth and the feeling you can do […]
Read More CD Songs: He Looked Beyond My Faults – Andrae CrouchSo I’m on a little bit of an Andrae kick at the moment, and I’m not sorry about it. He is a pioneer that has blazed a trail to allow so many to share the gift of their brand of gospel music with many. One of those beneficiaries has been Israel Houghton who himself has […]
Read More DMCD Songs: I Didn’t Think It Could Be – Andrae and IsraelAndrae came out with some classics and this is one of them. I learnt some biblical literacy that way and remember scripture through what these singers put into song. As my youngest born hits number one, I am reminded that her name means life and this Sunday I was reminded that real life is the […]
Read More CD Songs – I Come That You Might Have Life – Andrae CrouchI heard this song when I was growing up and as with many songs of those childhood days, I’d hear them, like them, not know who did them and have them lurk in the background for years. Of course then I get all grown up and I know me John P Kee, Kirk Franklin, Vanessa […]
Read More DMCD Songs – I’m Goin’ Up YonderOne of my favourite female vocalists – whatever genre. Gifted is an understatement. So to put that good use in this scenario is just the ticket. Also the song reminds me of the old days back in Wellingborough. It’s a song that would come from my dad’s lips on a Sunday afternoon as he comes […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Because He Lives – Kim BurrellIt’s all well and good enjoying a good spiritual time, but the drive of faith is to motivate us on the same mission as our Lord and Saviour and this song reminds us of that in a vivid lyrical call from the God of Justice. Good stuff from Mr. Keyes. For His Name’s Sake Shalom […]
Read More DMCD Songs: God Of Justice – Aaron KeyesJust the smallest stir took place when Chaka Khan gave this rendition of her R’n’B hit at a Celebration of Gospel. It opens up a lot of interesting questions about what are songs that glorify God? Gotta tell you, there’s a slice of me (rather than a part for a change) that is old school. […]
Read More What Is Gospel Music? Through The Fire?The Clark Sisters paying tribute to Commissioned. Did I read that right? This is one of the beautiful things about gospel music where greats acknowledge greats and that’s all … great. For His Name’s Sake Shalom dmcd
Read More DMCD Songs: I’m Going On – Clark Sisters Tribute To CommissionedA few months ago I posted the song by Aaron Keyes about not being guilty anymore, but these talented guys have put a great video to that which is worth watching and taking on board and sharing. For His Name’s Sake Shalom dmcd
