The Mighty Clouds Of Joy - Mighty Cloud Of Joy b/w Everything Is Going Up (ABC Records - 1974)

Once a gospel quartet formed in 1960, The Mighty Clouds Of Joy were clearly influenced by the secular sound of the time mixing religious and uplifting texts with soul and funk. Produced and penned by Dave Crawford, Mighty Cloud Of Joy and Everything Is Going Up are two perfect examples. While Mighty Cloud Of Joy is a pre disco bluesy stomper with blasting Memphis style or Muscle Shoals style horns, Everything Is Going Up is clearly going the deep soul way. I found this record in a pile of crap 7", paid 50 cents for it and absolutely never regretted them !!!
