Roots and Rhythms
Wednesday February 7th, 2018 with Repentant Renny
SACRED STEEL GUITAR from the Jewel Dominion and Keith Dominion sects of the House Of God church in the United States. The lap steel or pedal steel guitar is used in place of the organ in these black Holiness-Pentecostal churches.
No preachin', just good music.
Special THANKS to RON STEEDS from In A Mellow Tone for introducing me to this great music. Thank yee Ron!
