Say It with Silence
Hubert Laws ·1978
"Say It with Silence, 1978, jazz punk masterpiece featuring members from the illustrious Laws family. This is one of my favorite records, not just for the title track which is kind of a space funk, classical disco odyssey draped in the velvety vocals and Johnny Laws, but also because of the end of the night dance floor chiller that is 'Love Gets Better.'"

I'll Go
Southeast Inspirational Choir ·1983
"it's called I'll Go by the Southeast Inspirational Choir... it features an organist by the name of Carl Preacher, who I'm a huge fan of. Carl Preacher has his own signature sound on the B3 organ to where he plays the choir parts as the choir is singing them, and it's just in my head it's what I grew up thinking church sounded like."
