I'm So Glad To Be Alive (unreleased album)

The Metropolitan Community Choir's second album was recorded live during Artist's Night '82 at Calvary Cathedral by Allen-Martin Studios. The album was never released. In 1982, Allen-Martin presented Cleo K. Joiner III with a mix of the album on two cassette tapes. The whereabouts of the master tapes is unknown, but in November 2025, Cleo Joiner located the cassettes and the Louisville Story Program digitized the album, which is available here for the first time. The album features some of Louisville's most renowned singers singing almost entirely original songs by local composers.
