520 |a "This book offers fresh insight into the musical world of Jamaican Pentecostals in all of its complexity. Drawing on deep immersion in both American and Jamaican musical context and performing communities, Melvin Butler explores how Jamaican Pentecostals, both in the United States and back home on the island, use music to express devotion to both faith and nation, and how they seek to reconcile their religious and cultural identities, especially when the latter are closely tied to iconic "secular" musics such as ska, reggae, and dancehall. Butler deploys the concept of flow to evoke both the experience of Spirit-influenced performance and the transmigrations that fuel a controversial sharing of musical and ritual resources between Jamaica and the United States. Seeking to make sense of the ways in which these Pentecostals use music to cross and construct boundaries between local and foreign ways of worshiping God, Goodbye World connects the porous boundaries and vibrant flows of black religious worship in the United States with those found throughout the African diaspora. This book tells a story-or rather, many stories-of how musical and religious flow engenders a sense of belonging among Jamaican people of faith"--  |c Provided by publisher.
