I heard the song one morning on that Feed the Children Channel. I was asleep with the TV on. In my sleep I heard that song and that GUITAR was on point! I couldn't find the actual name of the song. I found a 38 second video clip on youtube but that was it. Anyway those fellas made it do what it do baby! Yeah!

I have actually thought of doing it as a special request for a awesome visiting Evangelist but have chicken out due to the fact of the musical part haunts a big part of my past...but who knows maybe some day it will be a spiritual need to minister with it...they do sing and play it well!!!

You've made me curious. What do you mean by that? If I'm intruding and it's too personal, I apologize for asking and understand if you don't answer.

Played that song .. The House of the  rising sun too many times in too many beer joints and dead end dives following My Father around as a kid...That lifestyle eventually killed my father with psorosis of the liver and lung cancer...the Lord deliverance made all things new and old secular tunes have away of haunting musicians if they open closed doors too often IMHO

I apologize for asking. I'm sorry to hear about your Pops. I hope I didn't stir up too many memories. I've been reading some of the posts and I noticed how you ended yours "IMHO" what does that mean?
