Awesome!!

This is one of the two ABSOLUTELY MOST FABULOUS renditions of "In the Upper Room" I've ever heard!!!! In my book... this is no less awesome than Mahalia Jackson's version. YOWZA!!!

I recorded this concert on vhs when it was shown on the BBC arena programme in the eighties. lamentably I have lost the tape but, was delighted to be able to buy the CD this year. It still has that "I've just heard something unique and very special" sound to it and I am grateful someone has taken the trouble to make it available to all.

Ah! Somehow I accidentally rated "worth watching" and then redid it "Awesome!" to try to negate it. Sorry about that.

I'm not a great brass fan, but for some reason or another I like this song. I prefer the album version though.

I've got the album, that is "In The Upper Room"

I didn't know you could get it on CD



There is a DVD available. Please message me for more details.

I don't have the album, so I can't compare the two. Also, the album has twelve tracks rather than ten. Confused? You will be...
