Dylan's Gospel
Dylan's Gospel is the only studio album by The Brothers & Sisters of L.A., a group of vocalists working as session musicians in the Los Angeles, California area during the album's recording in June 1969. The Brothers & Sisters of L.A. was organized by Lou Adler specifically to record the album, which consists of gospel music-style covers of Bob Dylan songs. Members of the group included Merry Clayton and Gloria Jones. The album was first released in 1969 by Adler's own Ode Records label. It was initially a commercial flop, which convinced Adler not to reunite the Brothers and Sisters of L.A. for another performance. It was reissued by Light in the Attic Records on April 1, 2014.
