Three songs from heathens to celebrate.
First the Mormon tablenacle choir sing the greatest song from the greatest oratorio ever written (by Handel).
next Jeff Beck and Rod Stewart do the great negro spiritual People get ready. Jeff Beck really is one of the great guitarists
Lastly Rod Stewart singing one of the greatest hymns ever written Amazing grace. It is by John Newton a former slave trader.

ReplyDeleteSonny Terry & Brownie McGhee also put out a good version of "People get ready"

I also got me some nice versions of "Amazing Grace"; one by Bryn Terfel and The Massed Bands of the Welsh Guards & male voice choir and the other by the Soweto Gospel Choir
