Hi everyone, The song of the week is 'Canaan's Land' (a.k.a. 'Where The Soul Never Dies') in the key of F. Recordings Here are three versions of Canaan's Land to take a listen to. The third one is not a bluegrass version, but the vocal arrangement is so good that I couldn't help but include it here. Ricky Skaggs and Tony Rice (key of E) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_mJxXFxcy4 Jim and Jesse (key of G) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mV44JL1ktng The Oak Ridge Boys (key of F, final choruses modulate to the key of Bb) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YV7RhC9ZGfk Jam Videos Jason’s YouTube Links – Alphabetical Listing – Parisology (cyberplasm.com) Progression 1111 1155 1111 1511 (Prog.
