Going to the Army - Episode 30 (March 2017) - WATER (part two)

"Going to the Army!" - Marc Harry's Podcast

"Going to the Army!" is a podcast series featuring Salvation Army music. This 30th Episode is for March 2017 and continues the "Going to the Army!" ministry, which is now in its 4th year of broadcasting.
This episode (the 35th podcast in total, including seasonal specials) features bands, songsters, massed ensembles, a singing company, rock band and soloists - all sharing with us music from the vast Salvation Army repertoire - inclusing some very rare pieces I doubt most listeners have heard before.
Composers featured include John Larsson, Martyn Thomas, Thomas Rive, Norman Bearcroft, Ray Steadman-Allen, Douglas Rolls and Brian Hogg. This new episode in the Podcast series is the successor last month's podcast and features songs and pieces with a connection to WATER - seas, oceans, rivers, tides, floods and founts.
Originally begun for just a few friends and family members GttA has become SO MUCH MORE than that in just 3 years. The Episodes and 'specials' have been listened to or downloaded HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of times in all continents and more than 50 countries throughout the world - and has been played to even more by listeners who share them with family, church shut-ins and other friends who do not have access to the internet. This new podcast continues the ever-growing ministry of GttA around the world and features both new songs and pieces and others that have been well-loved and very well-blessed for many years throughout the Salvation Army World. I am particularly grateful to people who send me requests for items they would like featured on GttA.
We have had to upgrade from the FREE Podomatic service three times now so many thanks to those who have donated enabling us to be able to do that. In the months ahead we may run out of space on the Podomatic host site and, if we do then the early episodes will need to be deleted. The only option to this would be to upgrade the subscription package still further. Any donations to this ministry are gratefully received and my be sent via PayPal through the link on the right hand side of the podcast's main page at: www.goingtothearmy.podomatic.com The "Going to the Army" Facebook group recently passed 4,100 members from all around the world. "They shall come from the East, They shall come from the West and sit down in the Kingdom of God". Hallelujah!
Much of the featured music is from my own transfers of old SA LPs, 78s and cassettes but some CD and original recordings are also included. Presented by lifelong Salvationist musician and actor Marc Harry this podcast features music by bands, songsters, singing companies and soloists. In addition, background information about the music, the Salvation Army and the presenter's own experiences are included.
