This is from a recording session/rehearsal for the live streaming of a service I play and sing for every Sunday at Unity Church of Light in Tallmadge, Ohio and it features Bryan Thomas on bass, who also sings the duet with me at the end. This is my rendition of the Aretha Franklin classic performance.
