Having been raised on pop and rock, my early exposure to gospel music did not go much beyond hearing Andre Crouch \u0026amp; the Disciples. That was in the late 1970’s. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1982, six guys from Detroit, including gospel luminary Fred Hammond, formed Commissioned. The group recorded 11 albums between 1984 and 2002. Among the lineup changes along the way was the addition of another widely-recognized gospel artist, Marvin Sapp, in 1991.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGo Tell Somebody (1986) was the group’s second release on Light Records, which reached number two on Billboard’s Top Gospel Albums list. It fuses R\u0026amp;B, traditional gospel, 80’s pop, and a little funk and inspirational, with passionate vocals and smooth harmonizing. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe stated purpose of the recording is to uplift listeners and let them know that no weapon formed against them will prosper. The group succeeds admirably with lyrics that reflect a mature Christian perspective that is uncommonly bold and informed by Scripture. “Who Do Men Say I Am” has a grand, epic vibe ending with references from Isaiah 53. “Go Tell Somebody” encourages continually thinking about the lost. “Love Isn’t Love” features smooth as silk vocals reminding us that we have not loved until we have helped someone else. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe solid, spiritual truths surpass much of what you hear today. This will especially appeal to those who like music with substance. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEven with the remastering, the music sounds a little dated, which is to be expected on a recording more than 20 years old. Overall, it holds up well in part because the R\u0026amp;B\/gospel style may be more timeless than pop and rock. The arrangements and production are also excellent. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe catchy music and the timeless truths make this still relevant today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMichael Dalton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFebruary 12, 2010\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boone's Overstock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51705089589494,"sku":"akn1789816598304","price":8.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0808\/4907\/6470\/files\/commissioned---go-tell-somebody-cd-2009-retroactive-classic-black-gospel_1.jpg?v=1789816602","url":"https:\/\/intentionalcladfit.shop\/products\/commissioned-go-tell-somebody-cd-2009-retroactive-classic-black-gospel","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
