Tell The Angels
In 1966 Fred and Annie McDowell recorded a brilliant session of sacred music with their church choir. Fred's stunning slide guitar work is a perfect accompaniment for the strange, eerie harmonies here. This is a desert-island album for me.Fred McDowell and The Hunter's Chapel Singers - Tell The Angels
Buy the CD.
My road's so rough and rocky, my burden seems hard to bear
My friends, they talk about me - I can't find peace anywhere
I'm worried, I'm tired, I'm sick and sad
My heart is weary-laden and I'm feeling so bad
But you know, one day I'm going away,
and I'm going up to heaven to stay...
