S1 Ep 12: Reba Rambo
<p>There's a lot to be said about Reba Rambo. From 1976-1982, she was one of contemporary Christian music's mavericks, the first to receive crossover buzz from mainstream publications like Billboard and Cash Box. She had the lyrical prowess of Laura Nyro, the vocal power akin to Streisand, and the glamour of Diana Ross. Her 1976 album <em>Lady</em> came from out of nowhere, establishing this member of southern gospel's Singing Rambos as a solo artist in her own right. Lady's lead single, "The Land of Oohs and Ahs," took The Wizard of Oz's concepts and likened them to the salvation experience, an unconventional approach to talking about one's faith that caught on with listeners world round. Fans called her "Reba Lady" and her whimsical and ethereal lyricism served as theological springboards from which listeners broadened their ideas of what being a contemporary Christian could mean. For years, Reba's important contributions to contemporary Christian music went unnoticed. But in 2019, Sony's Legacy Recordings and MNRK began reissuing her long out-of-print solo albums. <em>Lady</em>, <em>Confessions</em> and <em>Lady Live</em> were digitally reissued. Then, this past week, her 1980 album <em>Dreamin'</em> was reissued and quickly hit the #8 position on iTunes. I've been documenting the career of this important artist since 1993, and after many years and many conversations, I am still learning the whole story. We sat down last week to discuss her career, beginning with <em>Lady</em>, her time with Andrae Crouch & the Disciples, and the massive work that she did in 1980 which began with <em>Dreamin'</em>, now available on all digital music outlets! </p>

S1 Ep 11: A Conversation About Sandra Crouch
<p>I was not at all prepared for the calls I got, back to back, late Sunday afternoon telling me that Sandra Crouch had died. I didn’t know her, but the people who called knew that I loved her and they wanted me to know before the news went all around the world. A world without Sandra (or Andraé) Crouch in it is hard to fathom. Her music has been present in my life since I was born. Her solo albums in the eighties and nineties were companions for me in incredibly hard and lonely times.</p> <p>With her twin brother, Andraé, she innovated the contemporary gospel sound in his early group The COGICS, and simultaneously began a career as a session musician, playing percussion on everything from the Jackson 5’s “I Want You Back” and “ABC” to Janis Joplin’s posthumous <em>Pearl</em> album.</p> <p><br></p> <p>When Andraé launched his group, The Disciples, in 1965, she was once again there providing vocal and instrumental support as the group became a driver in the development of contemporary gospel and (what would later become known as) contemporary Christian music. They broke color lines in the Jesus Movement, performing at the seminal Explo ‘72. Sandra co-wrote the Disciples’ anthem “Jesus Is The Answer” which, today, can be found in hymnals. By the end of the decade, she and the Disciples found themselves at the White House, performing for President Jimmy Carter.</p> <p>She stepped into the spotlight as a recording artist in her own right with 1983’s <em>We Sing Praises</em>, which produced monster hits like the Jean Johnson-led “He’s Worthy” and “Magnify the Lord (We Sing Praises).” The album earned three Grammy nominations and took home the award for Best Soul Gospel Performance, Female. </p> <p>Musician and social commentator Dara Tucker posted a tribute to Sandra Crouch on her TikTok (@darastarrtucker) that highlights her important contributions to the world of popular music and notes the lack of focus on the weight of her life’s work. Dara has joined me for this episode in which we unpack our thoughts about this amazing woman who will be deeply missed.</p>
