Brother & Sister W B Grate – Power is in the Heart of Man
One of those recordings that reaches far beyond itself. The way Sister W B Grate sings each phrase says to me that nothing ever repeats itself – that every moment matters. In 1967, when this was recorded. In 2066. Now. From the 3-CD set Fire In My Bones, “a small peek at the incredible diversity and power of post-war black gospel.”

I first heard this on KGNU radio in Boulder CO and searched to find this site so I could hear it again. What a great story. I would like to hear other recordings of this brother sister combo but haven’t found any on the internet.
