NOT ANOTHER HYPE?

no,just another God -rock smash!

John Rutter's MTCC recording of "Jesus She Is Leaving" is all set to go down in the annals of pop history as the next God -rock hit. There was "Jesus Is A Soul Man", "Spirit In The Sky", "Let It Be" and "Jesus Is Alright". Now there's "Jesus She Is Leav- ing'' and it'sjust as heavy asits chart -splitting predecessors. Not only that, "Jesus She Is Leaving" has a few other things going for it. Outstanding backing and arrangement by Crowbar, the country'snew super group, and a sing -a -long chorus that picks up where "Hey Jude" left off. That can't be bad. In addition the song already proved its potential by creating a standing ovation at the Fillmore East in New York. And one other thing. If you'rea MOR station and not into God -rock, we humbly suggest you flip the record and check out "Mother". It's "Winchester Cathedral" feel indicates it might go God -rock too.
