We Believe Cotillion 1970
Gospel Ship
Sometimes sub-titled 'We Believe', this mainstream release rocked even harder than Larry Norman's 'Upon This Rock'. While neither achieved significant sales, they found plenty of welcome ears among the rock-starved Jesus people. The Mylon here of course is Mylon LeFevre and those familiar with his 80's sound will be surprised at the gritty r&b-influenced rock he delivers here, dominated by heavy organ, plenty of female BGV's, and spicy guitar work. Gospelly Southern rock if you will - a natural progression from his Southern gospel roots. In fact the original version of 'Gospel Ship' can be found here. Highlight for me is the near 7-minute 'Peace Begins Within', a mean mid-tempo funk endeavor. Big hunk o' history here as well as fine music. KS
