Galilee
I don't remember too much about the actual writing of this song. It's just a Bible story put to music with the usual evangelistic twist.
There was a gospel group I enjoyed even before I was a Christian. They were called the "Jubilee Four" and were on the same label I was with the Castells. I actually got them into the studio to do the background vocals. They were in the studio, but had some kind of falling out regarding the money for the session, and actually did not sing on the record. They just walked right out of the studio. So we hired the women singers, Kathy McDonald, and Leah Santos, who just burned up the track.
Leah came to one of my services in 2012, and it was great to see her 40 years later. She had become a Christian. I mentioned her to the congregation, and played a bit of “Galilee." She was lip-synching every word. It was a very cool moment.
