Old Time Religion

First documented in 1873 this African-American Jubilee Gospel song is thought by many to date back even further. For this R&B/blues rock version Janice sings six parts, Peter plays guitar and sings and I thumped out an upright bass track. The intent is to juxtapose an old sound with some full on blues rock guitar which may or may not work for ya! We love the old and the newer versions so this is a mashup. We ended up with 18 tracks which is way above my mix pay grade smile Your time to listen and comment are always appreciated! Big thanks to Peter and PG Music.
