Roundabout way to this performance: I first learned this Charles Tindley song on a Washington Phillips collection that T-Bone Burnett recommended to me. I've since heard Vince Gill perform it, and it's now being used, via a Lilly Brothers recording, in a commercial for Blue Bell Ice Cream.
The Swanee Quintet started in Augusta, Georgia, in 1940. Fellow Augusta native James Brown helped popularize the group, a version of which continues to perform today.
