I Like God's Style
(1965)
Probably familar to quite a few of you, this record is often hyperbolized as the first Christian Rock record. Financially backed by her Christian fundamentalist parents, who insisted each recording session begin and end with a communal prayer.
She wrote all of the songs on the album, and surrounded herself with capable musicians but had very minimal musical ability. The album has a very Shaggs attitude in her delivery, and her vibrato and husky voice give this a real people command. One of my favorites!
