More Info:
Reissue of the R&B/Gospel classic from 1975 with two bonus tracks Contains the single edit of the #1 Billboard Disco Action single of "Mighty High" Packaging includes new liner notes from Gospel historian Tim Dillenger-Curenton From in the late 1950's, The Mighty Clouds of Joy released their initial records on the Peacock label, alongside Gospel legends The Dixie Hummingbirds, The Five Bild Boys Of Alabama, The Sensational Nightingales, and more. In 1974, they moved to ABC Records, and along with producer Dave Crawford (Wilson Pickett, The J. Geils Band, B. B. King), released their acclaimed crossover release, It's Time. This reissue of Kickin' contains the original 1975 album, plus the rare, single versions of the #1 hit "Mighty High" and the ever present "You Are So Beautiful" (which was less than a year old at the time of this cover). Packaging contains a new essay from Tim Dillinger-Curenton, a music historian with a focus on the worlds of gospel, soul, contemporary Christian, and women's music. Kickin' is a look back at music evolution in the mid '70s and demonstrates how music transcends genres.
