    The song Wes is singing, I believe is titled “Free At Last” isn’t it? Phelps is a musical genius.

    Nathan and David: The song is “I’m Free,” and it’s the one that Michael English got choked up on on one of the GVB Reunion videos.

    I find it funny how they keep reinforcing to the viewers that Mark Lowry is saying “Shoot”…haha…might as well nip it in the bud.

    But i’m really looking foward to this project!! (i hope they add at least one or two fast songs)

    Hey when did David become a salesman for Camel?

    These guys are role models for many, many people. David having an old Camel sign on his wall just is not appropiate!
    I am not a legalist, if you are wondering, not even close, but
    this blows me away.

    This reaffirms questions I have had way in the back of my
    mind for years about him. Too bad, the voice is magnicificant!

    Sorry I did not mean for this to be a slur against David. It was a joke. When you record many times they may rent a studio that is not christian owned. This may be the case with this recording. I in no way meant to accuse David of representing cigarettes. It was just a joke. Sorry for any confusion.

    Hey, preachers smoked back in the ’50’s. Then they saw the bums doing it on the street and stopped.
    LOL!!!!!

    Yeah, I’m pretty sure DP’s not a Camel rep. :)

    I believe that is an antique sign…. I do not think it is that big of a deal… I don’t support smoking but I don’t think any less of David because he has an old antique sign for Camel smokes…

    well…I’m not at all sure SoundStage are anything but commercial studios. Here’s the proof:

    http://www.soundstagestudios.com/c-10–about-us.aspx

    They are not owned by any of the GVB, past or present.

    Rest Easy. :)

    I agree with Nathan, I don’t think the Camel sign is a big deal. It is a decoration and David should be able to decorate his studio anyway he likes. (Yes, I think the sign is in David’s studio, The Parlor. The video starts at Sound Stage, then moves to David’s studio on another day. The sign is in the second studio.)

    As for smoking, my dad always says, “Smoking won’t send you to hell. It just makes you smell like you’ve been there.”

    Folks…..it’s an old decoration for decorations sake. It iS David’s studio (the parlor – you can see it in wes’s blog as well) and everything in there decorations wise is kind of artsy/vintage. Rest assured , David doesn’t poison his lungs with cigarette smoke – so his mighty vocal chords are safe- nor is he a cig smokesman!

    It’s just a decoration- more than likely for the humor as much as anything. I’m sure he no intention of it drawing attention from those who like to worry about everything.
