I was delighted to find this on KZbin having sung in this musical at Southampton Uni in 1975/6. I had a tape recording of it which someone accidental overwrote and have been searching for it ever since! Thanks so much.

Choralerna, the dynamic Swedish Christian chorale and orchestra of Gothenberg, Sweden first performed in England at SPREE'73, orchestrated by the Billy Graham Association and Campus Crusade for Christ, in London during July 1973. Over 30,000 attended the event from Great Britain, continental Europe and Scandinavia. As retail sales director of STL Distributors, the Christian book, Bible and media distribution division of Operation Mobilsation, based in Bromley, Kent; my responsibility was senior manager of STL Christian Bookshops and exhibitions at Christian conferences, events and concert tours. The STL wholesale division were international distributors for MGO (Musical Gospel Outreach) and KEY Records that produced the Choralerna "Power" and "Living Water" albums in English. Following SPREE'73, Choralerna teamed up with Cliff Richard for a concert tour of Scotland, Wales and England during the autumn of '73. The "Living Water" concert tour in 1974 played at major venues in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool and other cities concluding with three concerts at the Royal Albert Hall in London. It was my privilege to have facilitated exhibitions at concerts for the sale of Choralerna recorded media (LP Records and audio tapes), Scriptures and Christian books. Over 45 years later, I'm located in the San Juan Mountains of southwest Colorado, however, closing my eyes listening to this "Living Water" music video resurfaces emotional memories of a unique move of the Holy Spirit in England almost a half century ago.

Oh, does this bring back the memories! Heard them sing in Brussels, Belgique in 1975. This was my first christian album. Who could argue with the lyrics, pure Bible truth!

Wonderful album. Wonderful message. Great Choir. I heard it first in 1976 and still have the vinyl. Thank you for posting!

A local Methodist preacher had two very lovely daughters, so us boys got religion! He booked Choralerna for a local hall, and we were blown away. They were stunning! I asked if we could use the music and met up with them a while later at the De Monfort Hall in Leicester, where they were playing alongside Cliff Richard. I've still got the (very-poorly) photocopied score and a signed album. A great musical memory from way back when. Thanks, Richard.

I just found an unopened copy of a recording of this musical. This copy was copyrighted by Impact records. It gives an address 1625 Broadway, Nashville, Tennessee 37202, Box 2307, Vancouver3,B.C., Canada. Years ago my wife and I were using some music in a play and actually called the publisher to see if they would mind us using it. Since at the time we weren't recording and distributing they said it was alright. Some usage is acceptable, but I agree it has gotten out of hand, it gets more confusing internationally.
