Fire - Sister Irene O'Connor

Among the sea of sound-a-like private-pressed Catholic lps that came out in the 1960's and 1970's, Sister Irene O'Connor's 1973 album stands out with its primitive drum machine and spooky, echo-laden vocals. Released in 1973 on Philips, Fire of God's Love features several haunting and remarkable songs. In particular, the title track "Fire of God's Love" is so otherworldly and uniquely eerie that one wonders how far Sister Irene's O'Connor's seeming solipsism extended beyond music.
