Truth & Devotion is a gospel/soul group led by Dewayne Johnson & consists of Bobby Simonds, Garland Simmons, James L. Dixon, Edgar Woodall, Bill Miller, John L. Hester, & Horace Brooks.
They released one album under the longest standing gospel label in the nation Tyscot Records in 1981 & went defunct shortly after.
At last we arrive in heaven with the long awaited reissue of this highly praised contemporary gospel classic from Anderson, Indiana based group Truth & Devotion.
Taken from the original masters out of the Tyscot Records vaults & restored for the first time since 1981.
This album has been recently rediscovered by modern day Hip Hop & R&B producers through it’s title track & has been sampled in records from artists like Larry June, Joey Bada$$, etc. “This recording is superb. It demonstrates essentially what the sacred and innermost qualities of man can produce when spiritually and artistically blended and stimulated and inspired by God in the presentation of his Gospel.
Truth & Devotion is able to successfully captivate and enhance the old gospel spirit and convincingly embellish it with an appropriate upbeat that springs forth like fresh water from a mountain crevice fed by melting snow.
The words belong to the old experiences, but the demands of the old are creatively pitched to miraculously meet the needs of present day urgencies in the form of pop music”
