1 week agoSister Irene O'Connor: Fire of God's Love
While the Justin Biebers and Lana Del Reys of the world have been in the thrall of "Hypepriest" Judah Smith, the underground set have been seeking wisdom from their own spiritual guide: Sister Irene O'Connor, a Franciscan nun from Australia whose 1973 album Fire of God's Love has been sampled by mainstream-y tastemakers like James Blake and Vegyn, was featured in Killing Eve, and become an unexpected grail for crate-diggers, with original vinyl copies selling for upwards of $500 on Discogs.
