Sacred Harp Singing at the Shoal Creek Baptist Church in the Choccolocco Wildlife Management Area near Heflin, Alabama.
The video runs about 22 minutes or so and contains several songs from this early form of American, and particularly southern heritage music. Chances are good you already know about Sacred Harp (which uses no harp or any other device, btw) but if you don't look up the interesting history.
Sacred Harp gatherings have been happening each Labor Day at the Shoal Creek Baptist Church since 1921. The church is a national treasure in its own right. Built of logs and lovingly looked after by a small group of people, it lends outrageous atmosphere to the singings. This is the link to the church: http://shoalcreekchurch.net/ ... It's located off a good paved road deep in the woods. The Pinhoti Trail goes right by it. It's a stopping off place for hikers. Old timey enthusiasts will also be interested to see the cemetery that goes with the church.
Hope you enjoy the vid!
