Description
The San Francisco Christian Center was founded in 1954 and was one of the first churches to open its doors to disaffected hippies searching for a deeper spiritual substance in the dog days of the 1960s.
Under the direction of multi-instrumentalist/arranger Carl Fortier, the SFCC delivered an album full of emotional warmth, funky thrust, and spiritual elevation. As a historical document, it provides a breathtaking view into the roots of contemporary gospel music, but as just pure music, it is just simply a transcendent experience. And you don’t have to even be a believer to enjoy the ride.
