“I’ll Go”
Eddie Ruth Bradford
From the album Jesus is Coming Back
www.eddieruthbradfordmusic.com
Eddie Ruth Bradford moans a simple, old-fashioned gospel as piano, organ and female vocal group accompany in wordless, antiphonal assent.
When she sings, “I may be weary/I’ll go…send me,” you feel every ounce of exhaustion, every body-ache, in her tone. You also hear the evangelical conviction that regardless of how she feels, she must do what the Lord says do.
Another “straight outta church” track by the traditional singer from Clarksdale, Mississippi. Sing this song at a funeral, and there won’t be a dry eye in the building.
