Parchman Prison Prayer - Some Mississippi Sunday Morning (2023) [Hi-Res]

Haunting in situ recordings from Parchman Farm maximum security prison in Mississippi (USA). Producer Ian Brennan (Tinariwen, Ustad Saami, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Zomba Prison Project) recorded the prison's Sunday gospel service and the results are unforgettable.

The performances range from solo a capella to a floor-shaking electric band. The repertoire includes both traditional and newly penned spirituals. “Some Mississippi Sunday Morning” is an unfiltered and deeply resonant journey into a musical world rarely seen or heard.
