HOLY GHOST POSTS: CHARLES JOHNSON HITS A HIGH NOTE

All seeing eye

Charles Johnson and the Dynamic Gaylarks: God Got His Eyes On You
From 7″ (Richburg, 197?)

The slow build on this is fantastic…I’m not sure if Johnson’s falsetto isn’t just a little pitchy but you can’t ask for a more dramatic crescendo to kicking off the rhythm section to launch into what’s essentially a crossover-style gospel jam. This one’s out of Newark, NJ.1

  1. By the way, I have an extra, stock copy of this 7″ if anyone’s interested. Drop me an email.
