We’re kicking off our “roots gospel” offerings with a unique guitar CD that delves into the gospel music played on America’s street corners before World War II.  Featuring the unique sound of the slide/resonator guitar played by Ben Bowen King “Sidewalk Saints” presents classic tunes such as “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot,” “Will The Circle Be Unbroken” and “In The Sweet By & By.”  King is backed by the spirit-filled sounds of a “sidewalk symphony orchestra,” which includes instruments like tambourines, spoons and rub boards.  There are also distinctive vocals is the little-known “Baptist moans” style.
