A New York rock and roll supergroup, Former Raunch Hands front man Michael Chandler has been rewriting 50s, 60s, 70s R&B, soul and gospel music for a quarter of a century, in late 2006 he told pal Buffi Aguero (Tiger! Tiger! / Sub Sonics) of a long time dream to record a truly inspirational LP, in the traditional gospel style. He recruited the rhythm section of Brian McBride, and Joey Valentine, then added 'tasty licks' guitarist Johnny Vignault, and via 'Craigslist' found keyboard player Jerome Jackson (organist for Kelly Temple Church of God in Christ, Harlem). This comprised the heart of the Lost Crusaders. During the recording of this debut album, they were joined by Keith Streng (Fleshtones) on additional lead guitar, Laura Cantrell sang lead vocal on two country numbers, Jon Spencer on lead vocal and more guitar!, Steve Greenfield (Fleshtones) on alto and baritone sax, Matt Verta Ray on lap steel, Mike Edison on slide, and other similarly talented guests, produced by Dead Rispler (Little Killers, Shemps, Bamboo Kids) this weighty ensemble completed 14 killer, I mean really killer honky tonking tracks in five studio days!
