San Fransico Christian Center Choir

Sound of the San Francisco Christian Center San Fransico Christian Center Choir Reissue edition

The San Francisco Christian Center was one of

the first churches to open its doors to disaffected

hippies searching for a deeper spiritual substance.

This era saw new, youth-driven forms of

"Jesus music" that fused gospel messages with

rock aesthetics. Chief amongst these new-style

gospel artists was the San Francisco-based

Andraé Crouch, who was one of the influences

behind this recording. As a historical document,

it provides a breathtaking view into the roots of

contemporary gospel music, but as just pure

music, it is a transcendent listening experience.
