"It's in the Book" - Johnny Standley


This is just a bit of nostalgic humour. I found this after posting my recording of the Rev. Kelsey, I knew I had a parody of the Gospel preachers SOMEWHERE in my box of delights. Having found it, I realised that it amused me now, just as much as it did when I bought it! So, here it is, -for any other slow developers out there!!

It's In the Book (Little Bo Peep Has Lost Her Sheep)


Lew Dite with his brother, Bruce, on the kora (he's not a kora player). Well, let's face up to it... I am beginning to run out of songs. This is an old childhood favorite of mine. It's In the Book was a big hit for Johnny Standley in 1952 (I was 11). Little Bo Peep Has Lost Her Sheep was the A side and Grandma's Lye Soap was the B side which I posted back in December. (see video response below) To hear the original go to search and enter: It's In the Book Johnny Standley

GET OUT AND VOTE!


"GET OUT AND VOTE" was written and sung by Mike Fischer. It was the general apathy of Christians who stayed home from the poles that triggered this song. Fischer believes that it is taking the horror of the Obama administration and it's extreme move toward a socialist European style government and the obvious move away from the values of our Christian nation to cause the masses of conservative Christians of all denominations to wake up, stand up and hopefully turn up to the next election.

Fischer, who spent nearly 25 years overseas in Christian mission work was outraged, grabbed his guitar and wrote the song in 10 minutes. It was recorded a second time prior to the 2008 election. The video may be a couple years old the message remains the same. Fischer says, "Christians need to realize that our country is in the shape it's in because the majority of Christians have not done their part to stand up against the rise of evil in this country. We've done nothing for far too long and now we are being slapped in the face with the hard cruel reality of what our lethargy has cost us. It's not enough to simply "go to church on Sunday.
