Preaching on Wax: The Phonograph and the Shaping of Modern African American Religion - Religion, Race, and Ethnicity
Lerone A. Martin
From 1925 to 1941, African American clergymen teamed up with leading record labels such as Columbia, Paramount, Victor-RCA to record and sell their sermons on wax. These phonograph preachers significantly shaped the development of black religion during the interwar period. This book offers a religious history of the phonograph industry.
