Sister Irene O'Connor - "Fire" & "Mass Emmanuel" (Fire Of Gods Love/Songs To Ignite The Spirit) Alba House, 1976

Sister Irene O'Connor's 1976 record Fire Of Gods Love / Songs To Ignite The Spirit is probably the most captivating "Christian" album I've ever heard. Few records occupy such a haunting space; a space that will linger on in your mind long after the album is finished playing. Primitive drum machines and keyboards provide the landscape for Sister Irene O'Connor's beautifully echoed vocals that creep, crawl, and soar throughout the record. I highly recommend you check out the tracks below, and if you are interested in some mp3s, please email me. Enjoy!
