Spirit Of The Century

The Blind Boys Of Alabama

"Tired of all this beat head bizniz? The look no further than The Blind Boys Of Alabama. These old boys first got together in 1939 and here find themselves accompanied by multi instrumentalist David Lindley, don blues guitarist John Hammond, contra bassist Danny Thompson and harmonica master Charlie Musselwhite. Beautifully recorded, prepare to be dropped down in America's deep south, on some dusty road or a small wooden church where you'll find yourself testifying that "you're a soldier in the army of the Lord!". Top tune has to be 'Amazing Grace' set to the tune of 'House of The Rising Sun'. Out there." Straight No Chaser.
