Description:
American blues icon Ruthie Foster released Mama Said on her 2007 recording The Phenomenal Ruthie Foster. The lyrics are a mother ™s advice to her daughter, warning her to -learn how to pray and to -fall on your knees before you fall in the wrong direction. This arrangement is deliberately -choral, preferring to honor Ms. Foster ™s exquisite vocal shadings 'a bend here, a fall-off there 'by avoiding exact imitation. The basses provide the rhythm section of electric bass and closed hi-hat cymbal, leaving the upper three parts in gospel harmony in all but a few measures of the piece. The divisi is confined to a fewchords and is not difficult. An arresting and totally unique setting that will be a favorite with any group that is comfortable singing unaccompanied.
