It's the same principle whereas if you're a westerner you'll most likely shun mor lam (other romanisations . . . mor lum, maw lam, maw lum, moh lam, mhor lum, and molum) but if you've experienced Isaan country (and their fine ladies) you'll easily acquire an appreciation of it. I think the song peaked at no. 2 in the UK and ended up at no. 36 on the '69 year end chart there. So not too shabby for a gospel arrangement of a 1755 hymn by Londoner clergyman Philip Doddridge.

Tippaporn Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 (edited) This theme has a threefold purpose. Firstly, for everyone's musical enjoyment. Secondly, to provide a playlist which one can listen to on any given Sunday and thus be able to skip attending mass at church. And thirdly to recruit new posters to this thread, hopefully reaching the famed chorus at the "Do you believe in God and why?" eternal thread.

bobandyson Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 (edited) Always remember this gospel song from Dylan from the 'Saved' album and his '81 tour. I was hitching around Europe and had to go back to England because I had a ticket to see him at Birmingham NEC. Arrived at the NEC and a tout outside asked if I had a ticket. I had bought one via mail and cost 6.50 quid. He asked me where I was sitting and told him that according to the seat plan on the reverse side of the ticket, I was at the very back in the corner. He asked me how would I like to have a seat near the front. I said 'How near?'. He replied 2 rows from the front center. 'How much?' He said give me your ticket and a fiver (about 200baht). And that's how I almost got a front row seat to hear Dylan sing. (Shel had to go through a lot more to get his front seat to see Johnny but I was just as happy with my 2nd row seat to see Bobby) Edited June 6, 2022 by bobandyson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm reminded of a story about what were called holy rollers down south. They were a special breed of southern Methodists who would engage in dancing, shaking or other boisterous movements perceiving themselves as being under the influence of the Holy Spirit. Outsiders would derisively describe people literally rolling on the floor in an uncontrolled manner. Back in '73 I found myself in Virginia. An acquaintance of mine once took me to the home of one of these holy rolling Methodists. Mind you that this is '73, and even at that time long hair on guys was a common sight down south. There were two younger boys in the family who were sporting crew cuts. The entire family appeared to have walked out of a 50's edition of Life magazine. Nazareth with Holy Roller which wasn't released until their '75 Greatest Hits album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsetBkk Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 (edited) I used to hear the thumping bass from this track in the late 60's booming through the wall of Dino's coffee bar in Beachlands, Hayling Island, while I collected money from the tourists parking their cars on the beach for 2/6d (4/- on Sundays).
