For those of us who's gig is on Sunday morning!

This is the music I am trying to get mainstreamed. I started a non-profit corp called The Gospel Blues Society, but I have no other board members, and I haven't a clue where to take it. I just know it needs to be done!

Believe it or not Crossroads is a Gospel Blues tune! With an extra/edited line or two. Glenn again.

Hey Charly,

Thanks for steering me to this thread.

I've been SO crazy with Sunday services for 2 Churches, I'm going NUTS! My keyboard player quit on me last night right after practice! I've been scrambling to get someone to cover for Easter Sunday. I had to change all the music from keyboard centered music to guitar....I'm glad most of my hair is gone, otherwise I'd be pulling it all out!

I've just been popping in and out. I watched the first two videos and I have to tell you, I NEVER even knew this existed! Blues & Christian music. It's the FIRST I've heard of it!

I'll get back tonight and listen to all of it. But, you are right, it NEEDS to be done!

Be back soon!

Sorry for the probs Tony, what a time to quit! I am fortunate, I found someone to swap shifts so I can make the practice an hour before our Good Friday service. We have a new singer, singing a new song, and it would be tough without at least ONE run through!!

I like the fact that the bass player is stealing the bass line from "I Heard It Through the Grapevine." Always liked that line.

Now there's an interesting question. If you cop someone else's bass line for a completely different song, does that constitute infringement?

Neat stuff Charly,

Everything worked out for the best. New keyboard player on board!

What are your plans to help get the word out?

I wouldn't even know how or where to begin with something like this.
