Thread Name: Lyr Req: Standing on the Highway (Isaac Freeman)
Subject: RE: Isaac Freeman/Fairfield Four
Thanks, Jerry:

I never heard of them, but then I bet they've never heard of me. I just bought it used for $6.50. Should be worth the investment. I know most of the songs on the CD, and they're good songs. When I played Standing On The Highway for my wife, she'd heard it.

Several years ago I was involved in the Adirondack Folk/Gospel Festival and what astounded me was that from Friday evening (until all hours of the morning) through Sunday afternoon there were always three or four different places where people were singing gospel, including the cafeteria, out on the lawn... maybe in the bathroom for all I know. And I don't think that I heard the same song repeated, through the whole weekend. Just when you think you know music, you realize that you've barely touched the surface.
