Last week I put up a track of Donnie McClurkin paying tribute to Stevie Wonder with a track that does what all good tracks do – mix a great melody and great music with insightful lyrics that take you out of the comfort of your surroundings to the harsh social responsibilities people have. I should […]
Read More Jesus Children of AmericaIt’s not that long before a very key date in my calendar and so in the run-up to it, I feel it’s only fitting to pull out some of the big hitters from what I enjoy and I don’t think it gets too much better than this. Karen Clark-Sheard ably accompanied by Mary Mary putting […]
Read More We Are Not Ashamed – Karen Clark-SheardYou’ve probably heard the phrase if you don’t stand for something you’ll fall for anything. Some of those quips contain depths of truth that we barely take the time to discover until life hits us in the face and we are challenged to see where we stand on crucial matters of belief. JPK’s song puts […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Stand – John P KeeWhether you know the story of the prodigal son or not – and I’m glad that there are other perspectives that suggest it’s probably more the story of the prodigal father – it is a gift to be able to express the word in a way that embeds itself in your heart. Sermons (where did […]
Read More The Prodigal Son Suite – Keith GreenJon Gibson. Why I like the guy is not because of his singing. It’s not because of the fact that he’s linked to my man Stevie Wonder. It’s that just like a lot of me favourites, he creates the whole package – the tune, the words, the melody, the feeling, the whole greater than its […]
Read More Friend In You – Jon GibsonLately I’ve been digging through the corners of my mind. (Not that my mind has corners, I’d like to think my mind works in the round, but I’m taking literary liberties for the purposes of this here statement) So while I was digging I came across me old favourite Andrae Crouch. You know he’s probably […]
Read More CD Songs – Save The People – Andrae CrouchI could have put this in The Other Place, but when you add a number of factors it fits this place better. Stevie is a much admired contributor to the music scene over the last 40 plus years – almost the entire lifetime of Donnie himself. So it’s fitting that the brother who is not […]
Read More CD Songs: Donnie Sings StevieSo following the article on Thursday and my thoughts on that there were the services going on today. My friend Rob Simmonite also had this to blog on the situation. On the one hand it’s a time to be grateful for the sacrifices of those brave officers etc. It’s also, however, a chance to consider […]
Read More War – What Is It Good For?Yeah, I haven’t been representing Bro. Fred on this here blog that often – what’s up with that? This is the song to represent though it really puts us in mind of not letting the past or present circumstances be an obstacle to being all that Christ called us to be. Might as well […]
Read More I Want My Destiny – Fred HammondFor the reason why I’m posting this particular track today, you’ll need to read yesterday’s post which explains it. Sadly there is no uploaded version of Always Remember from Andrae Crouch. However there is this version which isn’t a bad effort in my humble opinion. For His Name’s Sake Shalom dmcd
