FREACHER AND THE BEAR.

You might call this collection a
kind of ~Green Pastures in Song,~
The quartet takes Bible stories and
retells them in verse as a country
preacher might, giving some a
humorous slant. As for the singing, it is sensational. These boys
have perfect. harmony and control; plus unusual and pulsating
rhythm effects. The album is
definitely. guarenteed to please
anybody who cares the least bit
about singing.
