Top 100: #71 On Heaven’s Bright Shore (Inspirations)

Release Year: 1976

Album Rank for Group: #4 of 6

Here’s a blurb: The Inspirations continued to churn out hit after hit in the 1970s with their 1976 Canaan release.  The Bryson City quartet was still very much at the peak of their popularity at this point, bringing great convention-style gospel music to the masses, with an Appalachian twist.  This album is one of the best collections of that type of songs.

Knock my socks off: Heaven’s Bright Shore, A Rose Among the Thorns

Don’t skip that one: He’ll Wipe Away the Tears, Far Better Than This, When Fair Heaven I See, I’ll Live Again

I could honestly do without: Land of Living (doesn’t measure up to Gerald Wolfe)
