Imperials: "Heed the Call"


Released in 1979,
this was the Imperials' twenty-seventh (27th) album.

The Imperials were (are!) a gospel institution.
Together for over fifty years,
they have had personnel changes over that span,
but they are still going strong.
Their latest recording: "Still Standing" (2010).

"Heed the Call" includes several enjoyable, inspirational tracks.
The musical style - like the suits in the back cover photo - reflects the time.
