Cotton Patch Gospel - The Greatest Story Ever Retold
$15.99
Family Entertainment
COTTON PATCH GOSPEL, an award winning musical drama,
is a leg-slappin', toe-tappin', hand-clappin' hoe-down of a story
that retells the Gospels of Matthew and John, except that it has
been expertly translated into modern day language with Southern
flair. Nazareth and Jerusalem have been transported to Atlanta and
Valdosta, Georgia and Jesus in this story was born in Gainesville,
told in the opening song: "Somethin's Brewin' in Gainesville." The
story follows the path that Jesus leads his parents down, Mary and
Joseph Davidson, including the confrontation with Herod, the current
Governor of Georgia and his disciples, all of whom work for the I.R.S.
The music by Harry Chapin has some of the most melodic harmonies
you will ever hear. Harry Chapin considered himself "born to write
the music for Cotton Patch Gospel."
