The gospel plough - Bob Dylan
So, there’s been a few too many music videos here of late, but, you know how recently I posted Eyes on the Prize sung by Sara Groves and Stephen Mason from Jars of Clay? Well, it turns out that that was originally an old gospel folk song, called The Gospel Plough. It was later appropriated by the Civil Rights Movement in the US and reworked into Eyes on the Prize in the fight against slavery, and what Sara Groves sings is essentially the Civil Rights version. But, in poking about, I discovered that Bob Dylan covered the original folk song Gospel Plough (I’m not ever going to spell it “plow”). It's quite different, but you can still hear the relics of the original in Sara.
