True, but Humphries only did the 6:24 remix...he didn't have a hand in writing the tune (not that I'm taking anything away from him). If anyone else should be given credit it should be Walter Gibbons. It was Walter who brought the original recording (recorded at the First Baptist Church in Crown Heights Brooklyn) into the light of day. Thanks to him, the talents of Phyliss Joubert and her gospel choir were heard by DJs such as Levan and got to shine on the dance floor.

@larrywho100 I ALWAYS felt like I was "In Church" at Davids House.  My Spirit was ALWAYS quenched & my soul filled.

I guess that was my prophetic voice at the time. Will to make a long story short; a couple of weeks later i heard the song on the redio in it's remixed version. Prior to that David Mancuso played it for me on that " Awesome" sound system at 99 Prince Street. I just feel like a part of history taking NOTHING away from Larry Levan Rest His Soul

[larrywho100]

Many people came to the booth and asked what it was. My wife at the time asked after the party that night where did I get it and what made me play it. And because of my church roots and still at the time dealing with my call to the ministry I said to her; " for many people that were at the party last night; this is as close as many of them will get to church."

[larrywho100]

It was in used condition but I had to play this song. There were eight other songs on the album and 'Stand On His Word " was about 4:48 long as I remember. I played the song about 4:00 am and the crowd went wild.

[larrywho100]

I was member of The Loft and considered myself to be an understudy of David Mancuso. I was totally engulfed in the music and the club scene. I am this not to take anything away from the Larry Levan ( never met him) but I must go on the record as saying that I introduced the song "Stand On His Word" during a party at a place we were renting on 20th street. I found the in ALBUM form at the Legendary Birdles Record Shop on Nostrand and Fulton Street in Brooklyn.

[larrywho100]

This is incredible for me after all these years. I am a Pastor now in Chicago and my life is wonderful. However, I often think about the people I with back in the day. I did just do alot of clubbing; but I was DJ back and I used to do parties all over the city.

@Lugetu Could this be the bootleg "unreleased" version that Walter apparently recorded at the church originally in 1982, before the Joubert Singers re-recorded it in the studio for Gibbons's Next Plateau label (which Tony remixed)?
