I love gospel music. I don’t mean the overproduced crap they play at megachurches, I’m talking about a piano, bass, and a stomp/clap choir in a black southern community church led one or more strong, usually female, singers.
I’ve never heard this music that wasn’t about God and that kind of puts me off so I’m wondering…is there gospel MUSIC without the gospel LYRICS?
[Edit]I’m talking Blues Brother church scene music - thanks shittydwarf for the link
Yes … it’s called a James Brown concert
I’ve never been to one but I have several friends who said they did. There are also a bunch of videos that show it and if you watch them long enough (because the real life performances are really long) … it’s not an event, it’s a spiritual.
I love James Brown but what I’m describing is very much not a James Brown concert, he has a full band with horns and electric instruments
