Genres

Some time in the 1920s, Reverend Edward W. Clayborn recorded some 40 cuts Vocalion Records. Death Is Not The End have now lifted 12 offerings from those sessions and put them together for this release. Very little is known about Clayborn as an artist or even an individual. The simplicity of his hymnal melodies breaking through the needle-fuzz is nothing short of fascinating. A two-string pluck drives every song of the compilation with Clayborn’s open tuned guitar freewheeling on top. There’s moments of conscious empowerment like I Shall Not Be Moved but mostly, cuts like Let Jesus Lead You and Your Enemy Cannot Harm You are humbly performed lullabies of belief and hopefulness.
