Really loved that song Rob, sad, but
easy on the ear. Good singing too.

Thanks Lesley
Great old Gospel song. Realised we'd left out a couple of the verses listening to our old version.
I hope to keep uploading our old recordings mainly for historical (hysterical?) purposes.
Folks may find the early bluegrass stuff in Australia interesting and even tho' some of the old recordings are poor or worn I have something like 100 tracks in the archives, mainly from the C&W Hour from the late 60's. Unfortunately, not much exists from the early days in Australia. The Hayes Bros Band from Melbourne probably had the other largest No. of recordings.

Rob, "Tramp on the street" was fantastic, that's why I enjoy bluegrass.

Thanks for the kind words, Joe.
Always loved the old Gospel songs and harmony singing.

Have always liked this song - and particularly like your rendition of it. Kinda takes me back home in a wonderful way!
