J.D. Brennan & Gold Fever with the Summer Street Gospel Group – “A Better Way / Driftin’ Away”

The Sleeve:

The Liner/Sleeve Notes:
None.

Personal Review:
 I think I got this one for the van on the cover, and the fact it says ‘Gospel’ – but it really isn’t gospel.

 So, the A-Side opens with “A Better Way” – and it’s a pretty rusty sounding bluesy Gospel track, the vocals are alright, and the music is decent. It’s nothing that overly stands out. It’s alright. The guitar playing seems to be the same riff played over and over.

 The B-Side is the track “Driftin’ Away” which seems to have a pretty steady funk sound to it, the vocals come in, and once more, there is nothing really that stands out on this track. It’s decent.

Interesting Facts:
None.
