Born of the Spirit cover

Born of the Spirit is a four-song extended-play record by the Lewis Family, released on Starday as SEP 104 in April 1959. The songs were recorded in 1958: “Born of the Spirit,” which is credited to Hoyt Scoggins, “I’m Not Alone,” “I Do Believe” and “I Shall Not Be Moved.” Wallace Lewis plays guitar, Little Roy Lewis banjo and Talmadge Lewis fiddle, with a bass player the record does not name. Wallace sings lead on the first two songs, and his sisters Polly, Janis and Miggie Lewis sing on all four.

The Lewis Family, of Lincolnton, Georgia, took that name in 1951 and recorded for Starday beginning in 1957. They performed until 2009, were inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame in 1992, and were inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Hall of Fame in 2006.
