It's a handsome piece of printing, but then the price is a tad steep for a 50 page booklet, many of those pages ads. This is a far-from-comprehensive directory of Britain's black gospel scene (about 50 artists, groups and choirs listed) but each comes with a mini-biography and many with a photo. You also get a few articles from Andrea Encinas-Meade (LCGC), Juliet Fletcher (Gospel Train), Bazil Meade (LCGC) etc. A brave venture from the Black Gospel Media Arts Network but future editions will need to improve and expand the content..
