The Blind Boys of Alabama, for all their soulful gravitas, function extremely well in a support role (though their \"solo\" track, \"Last Month of the Year,\" is one of the most memorable moments here). Tom Waits comes off like a half-crazed preacher, throwing down the spiritual gauntlet on \"Go Tell It on the Mountain.\" Chrissie Hynde demonstrates why she's one of the more underrated singers in rock, as she heats up \"In the Bleak Midwinter.\" And, of course, the Aaron Neville and Mavis Staples cuts are no-brainers; how could they possibly not work? Some less expected guests include Spearhead frontman Michael Franti and the funkmaster himself, George Clinton, who brings the blues, if not the funk, to \"Away in a Manger.\"","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52592257827103,"sku":"816651014606","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/da975c424b0fbf82096a60805179600f.jpg?v=1780482807","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/go-tell-it-on-the-mountain-1","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
