Sister Monica Parker, "Never Say Never" (2012)


This is one of those tracks that, the first time I heard it, I fell in love with it. Sista Monica can wrap her soulful voice around a song like nobody I've heard since Sam Cooke -- comin' from me that high praise.

From her Soul, Blues and Ballads album, here's a taste of Sista Monica Parker:

Patty, I was just writing a little something about an early 60s era soul song "Time is on My Side". And now I think time is on my side when it comes to listening to music long enough to make, now and again, good judgments on what's a track someone might care to here. Sista Monica clearly has a gospel influence to her music and is hard not to like.
