Here's a note I received from Roger Wade which I hope he won't mind my
posting. The link to an mp3 is included. IMO a very nice rendition of Closer
Walk with the organ, the modulations and the ending cadenzas.

His web site is very interesting also and worth a surf.

Cheers,

Hi Steve,

Just wanted to share one of my favorite versions of "Just a Closer Walk With
Thee" with you.  Here is a link to an mp3 of it:

I get a kick out of the use of the organ, only on this track; it was the
band's theme song.
