Tonight the legendary gospel collective continues to hold court at Lincoln Center on the second night of their three-night mini-festival this week at Alice Tully Hall. This evening the group presents a musical marriage of gospel and bluegrass featuring singer and banjoist Ralph Stanley. Tonight's show won't mark the first time that the Blind Boys cross genres to form a musical partnership; on this track from their Duets album, the gospel balladeers team up with Lou Reed on a soulful, spiritual tune.
