This is precious! I was in this choir when this album was recorded and was the student director/accompanist. Amazing sound from 36 singers!

Such a simple but amazing expression of great faith! And to think that such songs emerged out of period when our people were going through great difficulty and oppression.

OMG... this is the album my aunt recorded on! And there's she right in the dead center of the choir on the second row! When I got to BCC, I found THIS album in the library during my first semester and they sold it to me for $5. I bought it for my aunt as a surprise. She was blown away and so happy to have a copy. Thanks for posting this!! I love my Alma Mater!
