That is an amazing track... I had the pleasure of being introduced to the Blind Boys of Alabama when they were on tour with Peter Gabriel. They are a real treat live...

Wow!, I downloaded the song and it is AMAZING. A perfect blending Angels & Devils.

Which CD is that song on? And from where can the song be downloaded?
Posted by: Jim | April 29, 2005 at 10:33 AM
I can't answer the question about downloading, but I can answer the question about the CD. Just click on the word sing in the post, and you'll be taken to Amazon's page featuring Spirit of the Century, the CD with this song.

The theme song to "Gilligan's Island" also fits the melodies for "Amazing Grace" and "House of the Rising Sun." All three are interchangeable.

Also "The Yellow Rose of Texas" and most any Emily Dickinson poem. But didn't realize they would work to House of the Rising Sun.
Try Amazing Grace sung to the tune of "Seven Bridges Road" -- also very cool.
