Jane McNealy feat. Joyce Dunn - Turn Away From Darkness (7" Clear Acetate Version)
Jane McNealy feat. Joyce Dunn - Turn Away From Darkness / This Can’t Be The End. Very Limited Lathe Cut 7" Clear Acetate Version.
A song for the ages about hope in the face of despair, “Turn Away from Darkness” was originally released in 1969 as the B-side of a 7". Sung by the incomparable Joyce Dunn (who had a brief stint with Santana), McNealy calls it "a gospel tribute to triumph over adversity.” With piano accompaniment by the legendary Dr. John (Mac Rebennack), the track was arranged and produced by New Orleans’ Harold Battiste, Jr. with words and music by McNealy. The song is a moving testament to the reckoning America faces today. On the B-side: “This Can’t Be The End". In Jane’s words:
"I have written a song about the spirit of hope and the challenge that comes with change. “Turn Away From Darkness,” was released on Mercury Records in 1969. To bring relevance to the present, I have merged this song with a video reflecting society’s eternal struggle to survive conflict and pain. As we face tomorrow, we face ourselves, but the foundation of hope is a flame that burns eternally, guiding us through darkness to peace."
These limited lathe cut acetates were hand-made, one-at-a-time from plexiglass, using an experimental process and vintage cutting machinery. An insert is included with instructions on how to adjust your turntable for best listening experience.
