Sunday morning gospel: Big 6 Records



This morning: Twelve gospel tracks from Big 6 Records, featuring "Radio and Recording All Star Vocals," with three selections per side--what a deal.  I guess "Radio and Recording All Star Vocals" means vocals from radio and recording all stars.  Unless you have a better guess....

I know zilch about this label, and I won't even guess the recording date.  Okay, I will--1966-ish.  This was obviously part of a set--probably the type that came in the mail with wrapper covers.  By which I mean envelope-style covers.  Hard to explain.  (See comment section for label information.  Thanks, Bob.)

Highly listenable country gospel, and MAGIX and I got my well-played copies to sound pretty decent.
