Sonday

AMC KS-7634 6052N8 (1976)

A collection of classic Catholic folk pieces, most of which were written (and performed) by the Dominican James Marichonda, who is a well-known composer and performer of liturgical music.  The album itself is a little uneven; there are some songs which are very good and some which are more ordinary.  Nevertheless it’s a nice album, and a reminder of just how far from the folk spontaneity of the 1970’s that Catholic music–folk and otherwise–has gone.

The songs:

1. Come Let Us Sing
2. I Can See It From My Window
3. Nothing Shall Ever Come Between Us
4. Bread and Wine
5. All Good Gifts
6. The Lord’s Prayer
7. Praise the Lord
8. I Long For You
9. A Psalm of Praise
10. I Am Here
11. I Know Jesus Christ
