Religious music?

bergroot

Hey, I never post here, but I have a question for you guys.I've been collecting music for a while and I'm into things with a good groove and all that. But what I wanna hear is some nice, 70s religious/christian music. I just came across mp3s of something (as far as I know) rare. A religious bluesy rock folkish album by the group "Candida Pax" called "Free".Basicly, I wanna know some good albums with religious content. Both groovy stuff and mellow ish...SO, any progg, funk, psych, rock, blues etc to recommend?And yes, I'm a religious dude...

Give me one of those Adam. OK thanks.

You need a book called Archivist by Ken Scott -- do a google and report back in a year and tell me if you're still diggin the music. I am down with Search Party (the clear and obvious best xian LP ever), Marj Snyder, some God Unlimited, Caedmon, Ljubimo, early Larry Norman, a couple of other things. There are a lot of fuzz psych records that are worth $500 and for the most part they wouldn't be very interesting if they didn't have the exoticism of being heavy fuzz records about Jesus, most are str8 garbage. I got burnt out on trying to like this music and am blowing out a lot of my records soon.

i just finished a comp of this stuff, pm me if you want to order. It has 21 tracks and is $8. It'll be up your alley.

some groups not mentioned that I like:

agape
window
dust

that being said I find one track albums all over the place here in texas.

but you would serve yourself to get the book D recommends. Not comprehensive, but a good starter.

Cool... but I have no idea what that sounds like, will add the images to my memory so I can look for them while digging. Got any mp3s of it?
I've added it to my wishlist on slsk.

I mean... come on, this is amazing.



Just found out it was only pressed in 500 copies.. If someone have the possibility to rip this I would be VERY happy. Azitis - Help, from 1971

search party freaks me out!

there is a cool canadian xian record called "soul survivor" ... some relaxed groovy shit at times.

is bakery - rock mass for love religious enough? or is it more of a hippy thing.





i like religious records that sound eerie and cultish. that might be my reflective of my feelings about religion in general

"I like religious records that sound eerie and cultish"

Word. Hit me up with the info!
And yea... no "we are all made of love and clouds" hippy stuff.

The Sac

The New Creation is a CD-only (for you) xian item that is aptly compared to The Shaggs and strongly recommended after the first two songs. See companionrecords.com

gambit

Cop Sister Janet Mead - "The Lord's Prayer" b/w "Brother Sun and Sister Moon" on 45.
The recording of "The Lord's Prayer" is pretty , IMO.

awall

here's some gospel records i like

Have a Talk with God
funky. vicious snyth lines and shit. on the excellent birthright label.

Goodbye Lonliness
hot buttery feelgood gospel. my copy is a little beat and it sounds better that way.

i have a rip of that Azitis album if anyone wants it. pm.
