Sister Irene O’Connor – Fire of God’s Love
Sister Irene O'Connor
Fire of God’s Love
Style: Folk
Label: Freedom to Spend
Catalog Number: FTS034
Released: 1973
Arriving from possibly the same cosmos as San Francisco’s Space Lady or folk-dentist Linda Perhacs, Sister Irene O’Connor was an Australian nun who recorded a few bizarre collections of unconsciously psychedelic folk spirituals. Opener “Fire (Luke 12:49),” in particular, sounds like it’s being transmitted or even summoned from another world through space echo and spring reverb. “Mass—’Emmanuel’” is also great with its surprisingly movement-inducing drum machine and almost ethnic electric keyboard groove.
