You're Gonna Need a Friend

[@alphashed]

If one closes his eyes and listens with an open heart it is not difficult to transport oneself back to a long ago era. An era when the slave had nobody to be a friend except God and one another.

[@AmosPressley]

This is so great. The more we see the power of authentic singing with a heart of gratitude, the more we should be able to understand what a CURSE we are putting ourselves under when we feed the dollar-driven "christian" music industry and call it worship.

I just discovered these videos the other night 11/20. I believe this is what is referred to as shaped note singing something akin to the call and response. I have heard that it is regional thing and exists in the Primitive BC and parts of the south.

@Hymnchoir do you have anything with Mr. James Isom and Mrs. Mattie Jackson of Union Baptist Church in Rock Hill singing? I'd love to see it if you have it.

[@cheese0606]

do you have any of st. paul bapt. church in mcconells SC

[@anquavismcgee5169]

Yes.....They Sing "All I Do"

[@psychicstalker2]

I always heard this type of singing referred to as "sharp", not "shape" singing. I think shape singing refers to the old music books with shapes for musical notes. Sharp singing is more "shamanic" than shape singing.
