Comments for Bryars, Gavin, Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet

In the 1971 soundtrack to a film documenting tramps in London, thereis the voice of one anonymous tramp singing the hymn thatgave the album its name. Gavin Bryars made a tape loop of his singing,then added a large orchestra. First released on Brian Eno`sObscure label in 1975, this is the extended 1993 version withTom Waits joining the tramp during the last section.A magical piece of music.
