NO. 22 ON THE 2016 CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN - THERE IS GOSPEL AND THEN THERE IS THIS !

AND FOR THE FIRST SUNDAY IN DECEMBER - LET 'EM SING IT BABY!

I found this great tune last year with Tom Waits, the voice of a thousand roads, in the lead and backing by the soulful gospel sound of The Blind Boys of Alabama, you are going to get singing that is on the edge. This pairing of artists delivers more soul in this classic Christmas tune than anyone I have ever heard.

This arrangement captures the pure essence of this great Christmas standard. And with the unmistakable sound of The Blind Boys of Alabama and the lead of Tom Waits, well, it may be an acquired taste, but, take a listen and you will hear the soulful, moaning joy in every note.

NO. 22 ON THE 2015 CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN - GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN BY TOM WAITS & THE BLIND BOYS OF ALABAMA
