The Divine Chord Gospel Show
07.27.24
A series of monthly radio shows on dublab.com, dedicated to gospel soul, funk and spirituals from the 1960s thru to the 1980s. The Divine Chord Gospel Show branches out into gospel influenced cuts and artists that crossed over to performing secular cuts too; so plenty of rarities all played from original vinyl, either on 45 or LP format.
As the summer months swing by, so does our Divine Chord Gospel Show Soundclash Series 2024….we’re starting this boss 4 months-worth of events with a big ol’ audio bang.
Kicking things off in style, we head to Spain, where we find our first combatant for this season, going head-to-head with your host, GREG BELSON;
We’re sampling the collection of: LLUIS RIERA
Lluis is from a small village between Girona & Barcelona. He started collecting after a coupla Northern Soul tapes landed on his doorstep. This was circa 1996, coinciding with the release of DJ Shadow’s ‘Entroducing’ LP, inspiring him to dig deeper into the crates. Since then, he’s spread his audio wings across the soul, funk & jazz spectrum. Today, we dive into his Gospel racks.
Lock & load your diaries for the next 4 months of friendly audio fire, presenting Gospel Soul music in a fresh & exciting slant.
Join us as we run deep.
No track played twice on DCGS, so each show is as fresh as the next! That’s the Gospel Truth.
Essential Digs Getting Dug.
