About This Event
Released in 1983 on Memphis-based Three Angels Records, Master Save Me is a gospel album shaped by the city’s deep overlap between sacred music, soul, and funk. Anchored by Wanda Lott’s commanding vocal presence, the record blends devotional lyricism with rhythm-forward arrangements, synthesizers, and live musicianship, reflecting a moment when gospel embraced contemporary sound while remaining rooted in testimony.
Written and arranged by Gale Jones Murphy and featuring a robust choir that includes Deborah Gleese and Calvin Barnes (parents of The Sensational Barnes Bros.), Master Save Me stands as both a sacred work and a cultural document. This Stereo Sessions installment explores how Memphis gospel labels like Three Angels Records functioned as vital community infrastructure, preserving spiritual expression while quietly influencing the broader emotional language of the city’s music.
