Oh my word. I'm typing blind here. Here's a video from Youtube, with the man singing and the words of Gavin Bryars below explaining how it all came about. God bless you, Angela, one of the most moving things I've ever come across. Matt Talbot holds a very, very special spot in my heart... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1lnSi7QWY8
It's the one seen here, Terry, though I think the face of your other one (of an older Matt, with bridge in background) is extraordinary -- like your Bl. Rolando Rivi. It's that gold halo and the little image of the Virgin in the corner that do it for me.

Google Gavin Bryers arrangement of Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet. For some reason it makes me think of Matt Talbot.

ReplyDeleteThanks much Bill - I have 2 but I think you mean the most recent on. There is something I'm trying catch about him, a look. Not sure if I can.
