These two gospel albums were distributed exclusively by Kroeze Brothers Evangelistic Association Inc., a religious label from Everett, Washington. Sandra and Kowanda Kroeze were “part of the Kroeze Brothers Team, being the wives of Billy and Johnny Kroeze, respectively. They sing and play musical instruments together on the Kroeze weekly telecasts seen throughout the U.S. and Canada, and travel with their husbands in Crusades around the world.” In 2011, the Kroeze brothers celebrated “60 years of preaching and 40 years of television ministry”.

The records are undated, but they must be from after 1972. It was in that year that VGC released Book Jacket, which is used with many of its swash alternates on both covers. Read more about Book Jacket and its designer, Ursula Suess, in a recent blog post.
