Mission Singers: Everything’s Just Fine… Or Is It?
This is one on those albums where the concept behind it is just so good that I really, really want to love it. According to the brief notes on the back, the Mission Singers were a group of young, rockin’ priests from St. Louis who devoted themselves to fighting world hunger. I fact, I believe all profits from this lp were donated to charity. And, of course, their message is definitely in the music. Unfortunately however, aside from one riduculouly great fuzzed out rocker, the lp mostly consists of less than compelling, badly recorded, second-rate folk-rock. Not horrible, but not so interesting either.
