GUEST,Hoot & Fidget	Lyr Req: Bahamian Gospel (4)	Bahamian Gospel	15 Feb 01
Ysaye Barnwell (of Sweet Honey in the Rock) sang a song last night at the Community Sing at the Levine School of Music in Washington, DC (Spirituals and Gospel: I recomend it!) It had lyrics like "over the ocean" or "rolling over the sea" or some such and she identified it, afterwards, as Bahamian. She claimed it had never been recorded and she didn't know the composer. Something about the way she said it led me to believe that she knows more than she's saying. I was wondering if anyone might know about the song or a good place to look up Black Spiritual and/or Gospel music?
