Review

Both a departure and an extension of Sweet Honey in the Rock's trademark mix of political and philosophical statements, Feel Something Drawing Me On serves as the vocal group's tribute to the world's sacred music. Globe-hopping with customary glee, the group includes a handful of gospel songs from the American South, a West African funeral song, and an all-vocal interpretation of folk patron Woody Guthrie's "I've Got to Know." Much is sacred to this expressive a cappella group. The title song comes from the Reverend W. Herbert Brewster, one of America's most distinguished Baptist preachers and songwriters; it captures the album's prevailing jubilance and care. Other gems include the delicate, multilayered American spiritual "In the Upper Room," a stunning rendition of the traditional "Hush L'il Baby," and the moving "Waters of Babylon." --Sally WeinbachThis marks the group's return to its roots. The album includes six classic black hymns, two West African hymns, the gospel-influenced lullaby "Hush Li'l Baby," Jimmy Cliff's Biblical-flavored hit "Rivers of Babylon," and the Woody Guthrie protest song "I've Got to Know," which is based on the hymn "Farther Along." This is the album where you can hear the churchly origins of Sweet Honey in the Rock's harmonies and fervor most clearly. --Geoffrey Himes
