"Oh Happy day!!!
 Oh happy day!!!
 When Jesus washed,
 When Jesus washed,
 My sins away!!"

You're saying that's not spacerock? :-)

You're lucky, they can't do the choir at every gig. It's fair to say
it's choir *plus* blistering white noise feedback metalstorm on top.
His thing about gospel is not at all dissimilar to Lou Reed's Jesus bit
with the Velvets  i.e  junkie no-hoper acknowledeges that he is damned
beyond redemption.  sort of.

Works for me!

Hmmm, the barber shop bits new to me though!
