[Faith-talk] An Addition to the Post on Claude Ely from Joshua

[Ashley Bramlett]

Yes, I was just saying it sounded like more than three people singing.
But it was only three.

Claude's singing did not sound clear to follow, but I did hear the band 
behind him in that youtube link you gave us.

Greater Vission is a trio.
Claude Ely had a whole band, and choir singing with him.
It wasn't just quartet music.
Blessings, Joshua
