Review by Bissia May 01, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)

referencing Stand On The Word, 12", NP 50028

"Stand On The Word" was first ever recorded live in the First Baptist Church in Crown Heights, NYC, in 1982.
Soon after the church pressed up a couple of hundred copies for the congregation, a couple of blocks away from Walter Gibbons' Jus Born recording studios. Walter Gibbons had already turned new born Christian since a few years, avid Gospel records collector with that; and played the original recording often behind the counter at the 7th av. Rock and Soul shop were he worked. Walter Gibbons must be credited to have revealed this Phyllis McKoy Joubert song to New York most discerning DJs and soulful dance music aficionados, as it quickly became a Garage, Loft and Zanzibar club classic and ended up remixed by Tony Humphries for this wider release.
