This CD is great.
I am a great fan of Gospel music.
Some of you all never been down South too much...
I'm gonna tell you a little story, so you'll understand where I'm talking about
It's a great compilation of Gospel music (I'm such a fan too). Really perfect to listen by night and with all lights out.
Let the stars fade and fall, and I won't care at all, as long as I have you.
