Recorded at First Word Records’ 20th anniversary celebration at Church of Sound, the live version of Tatham’s classic ‘Do What You Gotta Do’ is taken from the forthcoming compilation Clapton Hymns Vol. 1: 10 Years of Church of Sound (2016-2026).

The genre-spanning album features the final song from Tony Allen’s last ever gig, and further uncovers for the first time a wide range of vital recordings including performances by João Bosco, Moses Boyd Exodus, Jeff Parker, Collocutor, The Brother Moves On with Shabaka Hutchings, Kahil El'Zabar's Ethnic Heritage Ensemble and more.
