Knockin' On Bob's Door

"The Persuasions' style is a perfect marriage of passion and intelligence." <BR>-- <i>Greil Marcus</i> <P>* Founded in 1962 in Brooklyn, The Persuasions have been New York's leading a cappella vocal group for many decades. After their special guest role on the ZOHO's recent Tribute To JJ Cale Vol. 1, Knockin' On Bob's Door features the band's unique, gospel-driven take on 14 classic 1960s songs by Bob Dylan. <BR>* The Persuasions' inimitable sound is intact, with Jimmy Hayes and Joe Russell from the original 1962 line-up. Raymond Sanders has been member since 1996. Bernard "BJ" Jones, a past member, has appeared on several Persuasions recordings. The latest arrival was Dave Revels in 2003, taking over as lead tenor and as artistic director and arranger for the group.
