You" Sparks, in his
days with the King Bluegrass label and early Rebel years recorded a generous
amount of gospel songs, almost all of which were of very high quality. Some
years ago Rebel gathered all this material and programmed two more or less equal
albums worth of these gems, the first of which --OLD CHURCH YARD,
Reb-7502, $ 10.00 --was issued at that time and became a fan favorite, This
second helping of his early gospel songs is another gem of a collection, with
classic performances of GOSPEL TRAIN, GOING UP HOME TO LIVE IN
GREEN PASTURES, OLE SATAN, GREAT HIGH MOUNTAIN, GONNA BE
MOVIN', I AM THE MAN, THOMAS, I WANT TO DIE EASY LORD and
SNOW COVERED MOUND. Recorded between 1974 and 2000, the sessions
included backing by such names as Dave Evans, Tommy Boyd, Mike Lilly, David
Harvey and Barry Crabtree. A wonderful Bluegrass gospel CD. $ 10.00
