Covered extensively Betty a gospel classic -you should listen to Louis Armstrong's version. I'd also recommend a new 'version' by a young gospel soul singer Donald Lawrence. Quality. Shame this forum is domniated by third-rate rock fans. I know you are not prone to petty rivalry, but not a single soul singer of any merit has covered 'Up With The Bonnets of Bonnie Dundee' Not even these tossers that enter X Factor.
