One Voice Acappella – The Walk
If you’ve been following my blog for the past several weeks, you’ll know that I’ve been posting songs that were recorded by an a cappella group that I sang in for the early 90s. We sang in many churches mostly through word of mouth. Several places invited us back. It was a whole lot of fun. Most of all, it was fun worshiping with guys who I grew up with and considered my best friends.
We recorded an album called Instrument of Praise. It contained many songs that were written by members in the group, but also contained a few covers that we arranged for 9 guys singing a cappella.
Today’s song is called “The Walk.” It was written by Keith Nunn. Erik Bomboy had the solo. I remember this being the one that really stretched my low range. Over the course of the years that we sang it was inevitable that we’d begin making up parts that were never intended to be sung. They weren’t in the original sheet music. Well… who is REALLY paying attention anyway? It really sucked when I had to step into the recording booth, because I had to actually look at the sheet music and be reminded that “Oh yeah, that is what I’m supposed to be singing!”
