That time The Chiffons trolled George Harrison by recording “My Sweet Lord” after he was sued for copyright infringement for similarities to “He’s So Fine.” He was ultimately found guilty and charged with “subconscious plagiarism” (resulting in a hefty settlement).
Leave it to the late, great, brilliant, wonderful John Prine to come up with a unique spin on things…(I will never forgive Covid for taking him 💔)
Starting off this week’s Gospel Sunday with a little Patsy Cline…❤️
I just moved instances (from Universeodon to bbq.snoot) and think I have successfully migrated my following/followers list, but have also lost all of my previous posts...
Since the #7FilmsToKnowMe has been so fun (and particularly relevant to this instance) I'm going to repost those here.
I may also repost a few other things - such as my #GospelSunday posts. I started that a few weeks ago, but the hashtag isn't showing up in searches here.
Apologies for anything you're seeing twice!
Speaking of the Rev. Gary Davis…Jorma Kaukonen did a great cover of “I Am The Light of This World” on his debut solo album ‘Quah’ (orig. released in ‘74). Jorma is probably best known as the guitarist for Hot Tuna & Jefferson Airplane, but his fingerpicking guitar style was clearly influenced by Davis.
It’s also worth noting that ‘Quah’ is an absolute gem of an album. It’s a fave on #vinyl

The Rev. Gary Davis sings and plays “Twelve Gates to the City” - love this version.
Starting out week #3 of Gospel Sunday with Dorothy Love Coates & The Gospel Harmonettes 🔥🙌🔥
The Del McCoury Band is one of the best bluegrass bands in history and one of the best live acts in any genre. Known for their tight harmonies, flawless picking and old school style of singing around one microphone - this one is more about the singing than the picking, but it’s always a showstopper…

Here’s my first pick for this week’s Gospel Sunday…I’m a big Sam Cooke fan - this is a track from his early days with the Soul Stirrers.
