Steve, I think you have mentioned this before....that you have Bobby
McFerrin's Medicine Music CD..absolutely gorgeous is this version of the 23rd
Psalm. I saw Bobby McFerrin perform with the Boston Pops on PBS one year ...
he did a few numbers with his voicestra...one of which was the 23rd Psalm. I
remember him explaining to the audience about how gender is just beyond the
word he/she..something like that..I should see if I can find the video tape
recording I have of it and check out just how he explains it. Another gem on
that CD is the glorious tune Common Threads, which was part of a documentary
on the Aids Quilt project...I guarantee this will make you cry. I know it
moves me to the core.
