Old Time Gospel Songbook

"Southern gospel classics that will warm your heart, fill your soul, and even get your toes to tapping. Most of these religious songs come from American soil, but the imagery of the poetry, and some of the twists and turns of the melodies have been borrowed from unknown songwriters in ancient times and foriegn lands. The book includes a historical survey of the roots of gospel music--shape-note hymns, religious folk songs, camp meeting spirituals, and sentimental religious songs. All songs are in melody form with lyrics and guitar chords. The CD contains 13 songs from the book."Erbsen, Wayne is the author of 'Old Time Gospel Songbook' with ISBN 9780786665419 and ISBN 0786665416.
