New Orleans Gospel is not only an example of profane religious North American cross-breeding but, of greater importance, it is a deliberately anachronistic encounter between the New Orleans repertory and contemporary gospel singing. InchNew Orleans GospelInch boasts such natural energy that, amazingly enough, we discover a new musical genre. - TRACK LISTING Tell Me What Kind of Man Jesus Is What a Friend We Have in Jesus Nobody's Fault But Mine Down By the Riverside Just a Closer Walk with Thee Lord Lord Lord You Sure Been Good to Me Bye And Bye My Life Will Be Sweeter Someday Give Me That Old Time Religion We Shall Walk Through the Streets He Touched Me Will the Circle Be Unbroken I Know I've Been Changed.
