JB Lenoir's God's Word

J.B. Lenoir's sound and message intrigue me, particularly in this song.  The Blues are pretty evenly divided between gospel expressions and sad love songs.  Both are a part of the human experience. 

This is a thought-provoking concept in this song. I love the simplicity of his playing the hollow body electric, without any backing instruments.  -- Guitar Man
