[Dialogue] A few songs for a singalong

I did figure out how to post the CD songs in MP3 format.  I'd be happy  to do 
it again.

About a month ago, there was a discussion about ICA  songs.  Dressler 
long-playing records were put on the internet, as were  titles and words of songs - 
so many of these that perhaps it may be a complete  list - at least so far.  
And there were exciting suggestions for  colleagues to gather and sing, on front 
porches, for example.
 
Saturday Sept. 20 colleagues will be gathering in Troy,  NY for a 
pre-international-conference afternoon workshop.  That morning a  few of us will spend a 
couple of hours singing (with piano), and recording  some of the songs, as 
another contribution to sharing our song heritage.   The recording equipment is 
in a church, and the voices are not  professional.  We will have valiant forces 
on hand, but will not spend  the whole two hours polishing 2 songs.  Instead, 
we will have fun.   CD's will be available at cost; perhaps their most 
appropriate use would be  for those who really love the songs, to sing along with.  
This way people  can sing louder to cover any possible shortcomings in the  
recordings.
 
So far we have suggestions for the following list of  songs. I don't honestly 
know how many songs we will have time for.  We'll  set up a priority list, 
and then add others as we can.
 
SUGGESTIONS SO FAR
 
The Vision
 
New Community Bound (tune, Won't You Play a Simple  Melody)

 
 
Delta Pace
Sudtonggan
Gibson  Town
Cabaret Song "Shocking! My life's anew, vict'ry!  Shocking!  It's certitude, 
trembling!"
Rainbow Trail
Once to Every One and Nation
Those Who Wait on the Lord
Lift Every Voice and Sing
For All the Saints
Journey On

 
 
Not really suggestions yet, but other  possibilities:
 
 
Harambee (Harambee, harambee, tuimbe  pamoja)

At the Center Tranquil  (tune,  Shenandoah)
The Rose
All Life Is Open (tune, Guantanamerra)
Fifth City Love Song (tune, And I Love You  So)
Come and Go With Me to that Land
 
If you think you might be interested in such a CD, two  questions:
1)  Are there another few songs that you would  yearn to sing along with?
2)  Are there 2 or 3 on the list of suggestions (or  possibilities) that 
you'd just as soon cut to make room for  others?
 
Please let me know by Tuesday Sept. 16.  You can  reply to me individually - 
or if you think your ideas need wider feedback, the  listserv.  Thanks, and 
good singing - whatever songs sustain you these  days.
 
Janice
