Holy Spirit Spiritual Soul & Gospel Funk

Holy Spirit Spiritual Soul & Gospel Funk

2012 two CD compilation of American independent funky Soul and Gospel music which is currently one of most exciting areas of record collecting. One of the greatest labels for funky Gospel releases was undoubtedly Jewel Records from Shreveport, Louisiana in 1963. From such humble beginnings sprang a recording empire which also included the Paula, Ronn and Soul Power labels. We invited serious DJ's, record collectors and all round funky Gospel addicts, the UK based David Hill and US based Greg Belson, to compile the best funky Gospel and Spiritual Soul from the Jewel archives. Also, we're delighted to include one of the rare records which made it into John Peel's legendary 7' record box: The sensational 'No More Ghettos in America' by Stanley Winston, proof positive that Jewel's funky Gospel sound found supporters right across the spectrum. Harmless.
