These guys are tremendous, and their rendition of this old hymn is quite moving....at least it was to me. Brought back memories of my father years ago singing some of the old favorites in church....face turned upward, eyes closed, a hand raised in supplication, often with tears running down his face. He lost two wives to stroke and cancer, his trials were many. I learned a lot from him during those times, it has proven sufficient. 

I believe the screen will show 4-5 different titles on this particular recording. Go down the one labeled Amazing Grace and click on "play." You may have to scroll down a bit to get it to show, but well worth it.

Pretty good even though it had a wide mix of singing styles in it.

 cooldude Very nice John!
I've seen over 800 pipers and drums play Amazing Grace, gathered in a football  stadium . . . and I've seen a lone piper, standing in the middle of a mist covered field. pipe the song. Each time, there were men weeping.
Thanks for sharing!
