Guest, I think the thing that lit me up about your post was the assumption that the person had not tried a search engine.

A MudBud of mine just told me of his box-after-box full of old gospel songbooks... there is an awful lot of good stuff, beyond the freely-available stuff, which living people heard and remember, that isn't online anywhere till it is requested here and posted here.

When we get requests like this, it helps me know which ones out of those books might be remembered. Therefore I am interested in bringing them back to life in our church service-- I am too young and was too unchurched til recently to have ever heard most of these, see? So I depened on requests to push me in the direction of material that is new to me but not to the people at my weekly "gig."
