"Lord, Lord" (1974) Andrew Brown & National Baptist Convention Choir

[@dkbrown2934]

Thank you, Gospel Nostalgia!!! I truly appreciate this...

[@typrsn1]

You're very welcome Diane. Your father did great work and I don't appreciate others capitalizing on his hard work without going through the proper channels. Please let me know if you need me for anything.

[@dkbrown2934]

Gospel Nostalgia Thank you... I surely will!!!

[@dkbrown2934]

Gospel Nostalgia - I have the album. It was entitled, "Lord, Lord", recorded live and in concert September 3, 1974 at War Memorial Auditorium, Buffalo, NY by Mark Custom Recording Service.

[@typrsn1]

Thanks Diane. I can't locate my LP. I think I may have sold it. Any idea where I could get another?

[@dkbrown2934]

Gospel Nostalgia - Not really sure... Sorry!!! If I come across another, I'll be sure to share...

[@dkbrown2934]

My dad's composition....

[@typrsn1]

Yes indeed. I wanted to set the record straight. I hate it when others try to take credit for someone else's work, especially this. This is simply angelic. Just Blaze outright lied and explained how in minute detail he created this. He wasn't even born when this was done. smh

[@Blaidd2099]

A wonderful song and a shame that Just Blaze didn't just ask for permission. If another producer wanted to sample this song and credit Mr. Brown as the creator, what would they have to do?

@j4s2v1 this sample is listed in the song credits tho...

[@f2ame536]

probably didnt have the rights back then. if he didnt he cant say i got them from there

[@davidramos8144]

@j4s2v1 often times producers are asked about samples everyone knows it’s a sample hence the reason he didn’t bring up the original artist. Sampling is an art form in itself. To take something and piece it back together in a way different. Putting this person completely behind the beat is really stupid and diminishes the work of everyone else when they made drakes song. It’s like me making an art piece then someone taking inspiration and certain aspects of my painting and making it apart of their own then me being mad at them for not crediting me on their art as well. Incredibly stupid and ignorant thought process behind that.

[@thekidd2189]

Thanks for your part in this. Every day since the start of the pandemic, I played this song with a smile on my face blocking every worries and fear after being unemployed for two weeks not sure how I'll survive in it all....but I was so blown away by your drumming. The only disappointment is that I can't find this song online. No 33RPMs nor 43s that included this song! One of my favorites indeed! God bless you!

[@cosmicviewer477]

Love this song. The 1970s, 80s and early 90s was the golden age of city, state, regional, and national choirs. #MissThoseDays

Oh My Lord! I Found Myself Playing Drums Again! This Song Written By The Late Great Professor Andrew Brown! Buffalo NY! He and 500 voices and fellow musicians Gathered and Presented this song in concert in Buffalo NY at The National Baptist Convention September 1974 I Was 23! Sharing With My Friend, His Daughter, Dr. Diane K. Brown And My Friend Brother Giles Rozier!

[@typrsn1]

James, thanks much for your contribution. You all did this in 1974. Do you remember which album it was on? A secular record producer named Justin Smith (aka Just Blaze) claims that he created this music, although he wasn't born until 1/8/1978. He sold it as a beat to Aubrey Graham (aka Drake), who in 2011 recorded a song "Lord Knows" on his Take Care album. The estate of Andrew Brown is owed royalties and credits for this. Perhaps this has already been done?

[@pwforson]

Thanks for this info!

[@dlee8099]

This probably the best gospel song I have ever heard!

BRILLIANT SONG. THE ORIGINAL. Diane your Dad was a GENIUS. May the LORD bless you abundantly. Now young brothers, who came here from DRAKE. Check this out no shade at all. Let me tell you fam. This original is dedicated to THE LORD. I used to play that Ross track while riding, blazing an L, sliding out of town. BUT let me tell some of you something man. That way lead to DEATH. LORD is HOLY. You can say I am hating all you want but from Nipsey Hussle to Chinx Drugz, brothers are being killed by hiphop.I am glad I got out alive fam. Stop chasing death then screaming unfair if a bullet catch your partner or you get a raw deal from doing evil. Jesus Christ is coming with FIRE and you not on his TEAM, you are going to burn. Thats straight raw out the jar. These rappers are being MURKED one by one. It is DEATH. Turn. Repent. Chase life. Chase CHRIST. Soon it will be too late. Your moms folding your hands talking about he look so peaceful. Been to too many wakes. Spoke at too many homegoings. LISTEN to me young brothers. Gargling trash and calling it water. Its poison. REPENT. I love you.
