I was living my life as an Anglican. Let me tell you how I changed to a baptiste man. One night I was walking down Frederick Street Poor and hungry no shoes on my feet. I passed the door that said: "Down with sin" ! It was the smell of food that pulled me in.

Well the leader woke up and shook my hand said:"Iwant you to be a holy man" Right away I made a quick decision my stomach was groaning for this true religion.

	THE LES HUMPHRIES SINGERS - To My Father's House Tags: GOSPEL, R&B, SOUL Description: "TO MY FATHER'S HOUSE" - Released in 1971 as the flip side to 'MICHAEL'. THE LES HUMPHRIES SINGERS were a 1970s musical group formed in Hamburg, Germany by Englishman Les Humphries (born 10 August 1940 - died 26 December 2007), who had been inspired to do his own version of the Edwin Hawkins Singers. The group consisted of a large number of singers of diverse ethnic origin, some of whom such as John Lawton also performed with other groups. Another member was Jürgen Drews who later started a long-running career on his own, starting with his 1976 solo hit in Germany, Ein Bett im Kornfeld, a cover version of Let Your Love Flow by the Bellamy Brothers.Additional members included Liz Mitchell, later front woman with Boney M., and John Lawton, who also sang for the German progressive/hard rock band Lucifer's Friend and would go on to be the frontman for Uriah Heep. The Les Humphries Singers dissolved at the end of the 1970s, after Humphries had left due to tax liabilities to his English homeland. The Les Humphries Singers performed a mix of popular music and gospel covers and had some success in Europe with this approach. Much like contemporary German act Boney M., their music focused on R'n'B, gospel, and disco, but often with psychedelic phasing or flanger effects on solos and bridges, and, much like James Last, much larger background choruses in the studio to emulate a live atmosphere. The Les Humphries Singers at the time brought something from the flair of the hippie movement into contemporary German-produced (but English-sung) pop music, especially due to their mixed ethnic background and peculiar fashion sense. Two of their earliest and best known hits were Mexico (1972) which was based on the 1957 Jimmy Driftwood country hit The Battle of New Orleans, and Mama Loo (1973), based on Barbara Ann by The Beach Boys. In 1976 they represented Germany at the Eurovision Song Contest with the Ralph Siegel title Sing Sang Song, reduced to only a trio (their usual line-ups consisted of 20 performers and up), and came in 15th place, which they regarded as the beginning of their end. They disbanded shortly thereafter the same year, but enjoyed a short comeback as a pure live act from 1991 until 1993 performing their old hits, when Les Humphries's tax suit in Germany from the 1970s had fallen under the statute for time limitation. In 2006, the original band members formed The Original Singers without Les Humphries himself, re-recording their old hits and also releasing new material. In his later years, Les lead a quiet life back in the U.K. In March 2008, German newspaper Bild reported his death on 26 December 2007 in an English hospital. RIP Les, and thanks for the memories ,,,..........
