I have blogged this before but I will repeat myself for context purposes.
“The Lord’s Prayer” is the hit off Sister Janet Mead‘s album, With You I Am, with music by Arnold Strals. This was meant to be a B side but sold more than a million copies. It would have been an even bigger hit but it sold poorly in the south of the USA, presumably because she was Catholic and this was the devil’s music.
It’s a great pop arrangement. I’d forgotten the distorted guitar introduction. It is very rock opera style – fitting in the the era of JC Superstar and Godspell.
This is my same old backing from decades ago closely based on the sheet music. I think this started as a BIAB file and was converted to MIDI, then played with on a cut down version of Protools I used to have.
While the sheet music for the album is out of print, this one is available at various sites including musicnotes.
