Before his songs would be incorporated in the creation of Kanye West’s “Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1,” Rev. T.L. Barrett, Jr., was riding the rippling momentum of his 1971 debut album ahead of a 1973 release on Gospel Truth. On “I Found the Answer,” Barrett boasts that in his Youth for Christ Choir he’s “made something from nothing,” finding his own talent for music without any formal training and harnessing his leadership enough to shepherd a sprawling, young choir to success in the recording industry.

Supplementary to all his self-assurance, Barrett and his choir do give glory to God in the duration of the album’s 10 tracks. While “I Found the Answer” is a stunning vocal affair, the album’s true virtue is upheld in its instrumental dexterity. Pianist Larry Ball and Gary “Snake” Riley trade the heavy lifting on their respective instruments, revealing covertly through each song that they could be equally as effective in either a jazz lounge or a Sunday service.

Instead of opting for the melancholy on “He Rose (From the Grave),” Barrett makes a turn toward the uplifting, recalling the details of Christ’s crucifixion with an air of positivity. Singing, “I’m so glad he set me free,” the choir turns turmoil into triumph.
