I already made a thread about it but I might as well post here since you might know. Who are some artists similar to Washington Philips? particularly in terms of vocal style. Thanks :)

I'm afraid I haven't listened to him, yet. But I really really should. Where do you suggest I start?

>>70383306
He only ever recorded 14 songs (in 1928 I think), so there's only one album of his music. My favourite by him is this

which is a cover of an otherwise pretty classic American hymn

Thank you, kindly. My gospel doesn't go back nearly far enough. I'm more into the blues affected gospel, myself. Everything else I know from the Goodbye Babylon comp.

What could you recommend instead? I don't really mind honestly. I love this sort of music but I haven't listened to much.

P.S. you're much more polite than most people on this site, never change man :)

For my money, the absolute peak of gospel music is The Abyssinian Baptist Gospel Choir - Shakin' the Rafters. It's much much later than Washington Phillips but it's something fucking else, man.

I figured this would be a long shot on /mu/. You guys will find any way to avoid talking about music, won't you?

It was a valiant attempt

I dunno. I guess people can like what they like, I suppose. But I can't help feeling a little disappointed.

avett brothers, bill monroe, flatt + scruggs, doc watson, ditty bops, john hartford, john prine, kruger brothers,
