Our Take

From the hallowed halls of gospel music comes The Swan Silvertones, a group that’s been spreading the good word since 1946. This collection of their work from 1946-1951 is like a musical time capsule of pure, unadulterated joy.

The harmonies on tracks like "Mary Don’t You Weep" and "My Rock" are tighter than a hipster’s skinny jeans, and the infectious energy of lead vocalist, Claude Jeter, will have you shouting “Hallelujah!” in no time.

But don’t be fooled by the sacred subject matter – these guys know how to have a good time. "When Was Jesus Born" is a toe-tapping, hand-clapping romp through the Christmas story that is as joyful as a child on Christmas morning.

With roots in both gospel and R&B, The Swan Silvertones’ sound is as unique as it is irresistible. Listening to this album is like taking a joyride in a vintage Cadillac – smooth, soulful, and unmistakably cool.

So do yourself a favor and take a trip back in time with The Swan Silvertones. You may not walk on water after listening, but you’ll certainly feel like you can.
