Mighty Clouds Of Joy - Its Time (1974) | Philly Soul Meets Gospel
Музыка
It's Time [Dunhill, 1974]
You'd figure the showiest of all gospel groups would sell out with some flair, but the vocal transfigurations--that old Wilson Pickett (and Julius Cheeks) unhh born again--aren't the only reason this is one of the best LPs ever to come out of Philadelphia. For once, the songs--many of them from producer Dave Crawford, whose spirit must have been moved--include virtually no filler, not even (especially not even) the one that takes off from the group's name. Nicest conceit: how hard it is to be soft in a "Stoned World." A- - Robert Christgau

This album is excellent
I have loved this album since it was released. Every song touched me. Though some criticized it because of the production, they failed to feel the content. Shallow people, I think.
whenever I hear Mr Ligon's voice, I think of FIRE comin out of his mouth...his voice was just pure FIRE...he is an irreplaceable legend. RIP, Mr Ligon.
The first album that was done on the ABC Dunhill label was the very best of the clouds without a doubt..
CLASSIC!!!!!!!!!
Thanks CLassicaL.
Introduced to these cats in the late 70s. Solid gold.
TIME SLOW DOWN MOVING REACHING OUT TO TOUCH SOME
Norf Philly in the house.

ON THE SONG YOU THINK, Johnny Martin and Joe Ligon was doing the lead vocal, but its hard to pick up on it because they both sound alike

From the pompadours of the 60s to thr fros. Definitely a departure from their quartet sound. A funk album. You can hear the struggle pushing thru some of the tracks.
