Pastor T.L. Barrett and the Youth For Christ Choir "Like a Ship... (Without a Sail)"

This rare gospel album from 1971 just came under my radar. Looks like the folks at Numero Group records caught on before me because "Like A Ship" is the kick off track on their latest gospel comp due out this month.

Here we have the rip of the entire original T.L. Barrett LP and while I have to admit that I haven't listened to the whole thing yet, I think it's worth a download just for the original version of "Like A Ship". Pastor Barrett's church is still active and his choir recently performed "Like A Ship" with him at a Numero Group release party in Chi-Town. This video gives you an idea of the song but the original LP version is much tighter and features OG Chigago session players like Phil Upchurch!
