Sunday Gospel [07]
This week’s gospel set centers on cuts from the late eighties. A bit of an acquired taste, but some bright moments shine through the dated production, cheap keyboards and emphatic vocal deliveries.

Slowing things down a bit for our second post in this series. Here are four soul tracks to close out your weekend. A falsetto driven opener from The Gospel Stylistics, the wailing lead vocals of James Sanders with Raleigh NC’s Gospel Legends, the moody title cut from The Church of Jesus Young Adult Choir LP and a closer written, arranged and sung by Georgia’s June Bonner.

We’re starting a new mix series here on Let’s Get Serious where every Sunday we’ll post a short set of gospel music. Light on editing and mixing, it’ll be a chance to showcase full songs many of them with some crossover appeal. We’ll switch it up a bit each week and plan on having guest posts from many of the DJs we’ve featured on A Downtown Affair.
For the first post, I’ve decided to include five dance tracks. Obscure modern soul leaning cuts alongside a Grammy nominated producer and a Clark sister on the Westbound subsidiary, S.O.G.

WFMU Marathon
A little late with this, but I got a reminder email last night from Bennett4Senate about this year’s pledge drive. The Marathon continues until the 13th, so there’s plenty of time to help the station reach its goal. Take this opportunity to support adventurous listener supported radio!
