It is Sunday morning and I don’t often do this, but how about a little gospel singing to get us back on the path from Saturday night. This is American music sung every Sunday all across this nation. Some of the best voices every Sunday are in little churches you will never discover. Those of us who aren’t there setting in those hard wooden pews miss out. But some of them make you-tube recordings, so we get to listen an enjoy what we have missed by sleeping in late.

Today’s playlist starts out with a video that brings chills up the spine. Beautiful voices that could be the Carter family reincarnated.

Sit back relax and enjoy your Sunday morning, Jack

October is here. Month number ten, wearing a name that means eight. The Romans left us a calendar with some bookkeeping issues.

We’re welcoming it with an original song and a calendar keeper who has some explaining to do. Our familiar cast of gods joins the festivities. Apparently, even immortals enjoy a musical number. Watch Here.

And if you’ve ever wondered who put Thor in Thursday or Frigg in Friday, meet the characters behind the names in our “Who Named Our Days?” video collection.

New month. Ancient names. Same trail. Come sit a spell.
