The classic hymn recorded in 1927 by the Sam Morgan Jazz Band, and one of Noonie's all-time favourites. With a two-trumpet front line featuring Smokin' Joe van Rossem.
lyrics
If you get there someday, before I do
Over in the Gloryland
Then tell all my friends, I'm coming too!
Over in the Gloryland!
Yes over in the Gloryland
Oh Jesus, take me by the hand.
Over in the Gloryland!
Well over in the Gloryland,
All you good folks can join that angels' band!
Over in the Gloryland!

I happened upon Tuba Skinny and Erika L buskin’ in New Orleans on YouTube! I have Loved them ever since and play their albums daily! As a musician and band member in Canada, I can say that Tuba Skinny and their soulful renditions touched my soul in ways that have uplifted my life. We in the “great White North” can only dream of making New Orleans jazz like T S. Long Live Tuba Skinny and may their music become world wide for the enjoyment of all!! Davey1
