An Introduction To Country Gospel [Remaster]

Performer: Various Artists
Distributor: Universal Distribution

Notes: Featuring contributions from artists like Skeeter Davis, Johnny Cash, Charlie Rich, and Ralph Stanley, this compendium of religious songs contains country, gospel, rockabilly, and rock & roll. Cash's contributions include both the simple statement of faith "I Was There When It Happened," and the more secular "If the Good Lord's Willing." Songs by some of his Sun label mates are also featured, in the shape of tracks like Jerry Lee Lewis's characteristically rocking versions of "When the Saints Go Marching In" and "Will the Circle Be Unbroken," and Rich's Elvis Presley soundalike, "Big Man." Charlie Louvin's "The Family That Prays" is a simple country gem, while the Jordanaires' "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" and the Southern Jubilee Singers' "There's a Man in Jerusalem" contrast the different musical approaches of white and black gospel congregations.
