As with Vol 1, this features a batch of songs penned in the 19th century/early 20th century which are known in the USA as Old Time Gospel. Some of these jaunty tunes made it to British churches but most have now been forgotten. The versions here are bland and lack any conviction and by the time I'd got to "Have Thine Own Way Lord" (the last song on the album) I was pinching myself to keep the reviewer's pen moving. More appalling religio-muzak from our American brothers.
