Hi, Marion,

How far out on the limb do you want to go. Smile. We're looking 
forward to a call/response African drum song with lots of hallelujas 
for Easter. I can send you an MP3 off list if you like.  We must be 
in a drum mood these days because we also have a call/response Lord's 
Prayer that's going pretty well with drums only.  You need some solid 
harmony singers for both.
We're also prepping a version of O sons and Daughters that needs an 
African six rhythm (and I think we'll use our sax player, too).  Not 
sure if Jason has put  any of those on his  blog yet, but I can dig 
up the refs for you if you like.
(We're mostly still rehearsing lent songs... sorry!.

Peace,
sheri
