Easter of 1983 I recorded the Rhoden sisters (founding members of the Children of Light) along their brother, my dad, James. The venue was a residence that had been converted into a tiny church in Savannah, Georgia. It was recorded unplugged style with a JVC stereo electret condenser microphone wired direct into a Dokorder 7700 ¼ ” tape deck running at 7.5 ips. Years later the original reel-to-reel recording was transferred to cassette on a Tascam 122 B professional machine. I used the cassette dub as my source for today's post. Unfortunately, the voices overpowered the recording equipment on the choruses so a bit of distortion remains. The song is Love Grew Where the Blood Fell; press play to enjoy
