Book excerpt: Go Down, Moses weaves together the all-but-forgotten story of the rise and fall of the once-internationally famous Wings Over Jordan radio choir. Founded by Rev. Glenn T. Settle, pastor of Cleveland's Gethsemane Baptist Church, the choir won wholehearted support from the white management of WGAR, the "Friendly Station," to start a Sunday morning Negro Hour in 1937. Worth T. Kramer, WGAR's white program director, coached the Gethsemane singers for these broadcasts during the summer of 1937. By the end of the year, he and Settle had garnered a Sunday morning spot on the CBS Radio Network as Wings Over Jordan. The program rapidly gained popularity after half-hour nationwide broadcasts began in January, 1938. In the fall of 1938, the choir launched an extensive concert tour of the South to support the Negro-owned production company. Sunday programs originated from CBS affiliates along the way. Hundreds thousands of Blacks and whites attended the integrated concerts, breaking down racial barriers in cities and towns across the country. The Sunday radio program attracted millions of listeners in the United States and globally via the British Broadcasting Company. Wings Over Jordan was a civil rights broadcasting pioneer, offering Negro Spirituals conducted by Kramer, brief reflective commentaries by Settle, and short addresses on contemporary issues by mainly Black religious, educational, and business leaders.The program, with its message of racial healing, at first showcased naturally talented working-class singers, who began their labor of religious love as volunteers. The group later became more professionalized, continuing to create wonderful renditions of authentic Negro Spirituals on the radio and in Europe for the United Service Organization (USO) during World War II. After leaving CBS in 1947 because of a pay dispute, the choir continued tours in the U.S. and abroad.

Book excerpt: This is the first detailed study of Paul McCartney's Wings on tour in the 1970s. It covers every single concert from the University Tour of 1972, ending with the abandoned tour of Japan in January 1980. A wide variety of primary sources have been consulted, including all available audio and video recordings; press reviews; fan recollections; newspaper reports and tour programmes. The author pinpoints wider trends in McCartney's approach to touring - from the informality of the early gigs, to the spectacular excesses of the 1976 Wings over America tour. The narrative is woven around a wider overview of Wings' recording activities in the decade, covering albums such as the landmark Band on the Run (1973). The book concludes with a detailed interview with Laurence Juber, Wings' lead guitarist from 1978 until the break-up of the band in 1981. This is the third book about Paul McCartney/Wings by Adrian Allan. His previous two books were greeted with almost universal praise. Adrian Allan is a music teacher, postgraduate student, and author based in Manchester, UK.
