    Killer gospel reissue from Numero!

    Pastor T.L Barrett's 'Like A Ship (Without A Sail)' is a euphoric gospel classic with touches of Mayfield esque political soul, sleigh bells, hand claps, and jazzy piano stabs. This is a crossover gospel gem that’s still wildly relevant today. Recommended!
