Once more, with feeling

Once again, congratulations to my friend Daniel Mount.

I got my copy of the October Singing News today, and I saw that Ken Kirksey gave Daniel's new book, "The Faith Of America's Presidents", a very favorable review.

As I wrote earlier here, I only saw the book once, and didn't really read it in detail, but merely scanned through it, but judging from Kirksey's comments, I would likely enjoy the book once I DID read it. I get weary of my well-meaning brethren who try to rewrite the history of our country, and make our early Presidents people they clearly were not. Daniel's book(according to Kirksey)avoids these errors of analysis, and is worth a good read to all interested in that sort of reading. I DID notice that Daniel's book is highly annotated, and it's apparent a lot of research went into his content. Way to go, Daniel!

I would also like to thank the SN's West Coast correspondent, Dennis Zimmerman(of the Watchmen Quartet of Chino)for mentioning our radio program on KMJ in his tribute to the late Bob Jones.

Our show began after Don Smith and his new quartet(in 1947), the Gospelaires, got what WAS Jones' time on the station. I think a 60-year lifespan would make us the longest running continuous gospel music radio program still going, you think? If anyone knows of an older program, please tell me! Anyway, thanks to our good friend Dennis for the mention.
