I Want to Shout Jesus!

Description

I Want to Shout Jesus! is an album by the American folk duo Kamstra & Sylvester (Brian Kamstra and Jim Sylvester), independently released by the duo on Spirit Of God Songs in 1982.

Brian Kamstra and Jim Sylvester have a catchy cutting-edge ‘70s folky singer/songwriter style similar to Seals & Crofts. Christian male duos can often tend toward a smooth and smanny sound, but these guys have gotten around that with their natural harmonies and simple well-arranged melodic blend of acoustic and electric guitars, piano, synthesizer, bass and drums. Standouts include «So Little Time», «Plastic Bubbles», the beautiful ballad «Come To Me» and the dynamic minor-key «He Did It All For Me». Most songs have the keyboards/guitar mix, the one exception being the brisk «Everybody’s Searchin» which sticks with just the acoustic guitars. Custom record from South Holland, Illinois.
