Eerie, haunting, beautiful: Scottish Psalm Singing
http://www.gaelicpsalmsinging.com/au...Kilmarnock.mp3
Scottish Gaelic Psalm singing, which eventually evolved into Black-American Gospel music. Yes, that's right, Gospel didn't come from Africa. It was taught to the slaves from Scottish settlers from the Hebrides. In fact, some slaves only knew Gaelic, connecting with the Scots because of their shared, outlawed culture.
This music is so gorgeous. It sends shivers down my spine. Here's the site to order a CD.
