Lyrics:
Had a dream last night that I was dead,
Had a dream last night that I was dead,
Evil spirits around my bed!
The Devil came and grabbed my hand,
The Devil came and grabbed my hand,
Took me 'way down to that red hot land!
Mean blue spirits stuck their forks in me,
Mean blue spirits stuck their forks in me,
Made me moan and groan in misery!
This is hell, I cried, cried with all my might
This is hell, I cried, cried with all my might
Oh, my soul, I can't bear the sight!
Fairies and dragons spitting out blue flames,
Fairies and dragons spitting out blue flames,
Showin' their teeth, oh they was glad I came!
Demons with the eyelids drippin' blood,
Demons with the eyelids drippin' blood,
Draggin' sinners through that brimstone flood!
Start runnin', 'cause it is my cup,
Start runnin', 'cause it is my cup,
Run so fast till someone woke me up!
This is hell, I cried, cried with all my might
This is hell, I cried, cried with all my might
Oh, my soul i can't bear the sight!
Erika Lewis : Real raw talent without a trace of ego. She blows me away. What a voice !
Heaven opened up & the Angel spoke

Those two high growls she grabs are epic.
She's throwing everything she got into those growls

Only time I've seen him on the street. Shows his high opinion of TS. I bet Shaye just smiled, and he said "Sure, I'll do it."
Yes
Shaye and Erika have both collaborated with him in a more serious mileiu, when he led a big band - fascinating to see him with TS so early.
@kov2880 I think this was a redone version of a song by Bessie Smith called the "Blue Spirit Blues"
She would sound even better inside. It's hard to sing outside with no amplification.
Do you know where I can get one of there cd's. I live in Michigan and found this and love it!
