Southern Gospel radio station sglive365.com (http://www.sglive365.com) is going against the grain and adding an unreleased single to the regular play list. Station programmer Chuck Peters says: "When I heard Mark Lowry, Michael English, Reggie Smith and Bill Gaither sing I'LL TRADE THE OLD CROSS FOR A CROWN,.. I knew I had to play this song for my listeners." Peters admits he usually stays with the songs issued as singles by the record companies and promoters,.. but he adds: "This time we are going to step out..and make a decision. After all.. maybe it should be radio and the station's audience that helps decide which songs are the best."

The song is one of two tunes performed by this all-star line up on the just released "Mark Lowry Goes To Hollywood" DVD and CD project. The group,.. laughingly referred to by Lowry as The Mark Lowry Vocal Band, also sings I BOWED ON MY KNEES AND CRIED HOLY.

    Applause, applause. Chuck is a programmer who knows good music when he hears it and doesn't wait around for permission! Great decision!

    I agree that it is refreshing to see radio talent do more than follow what the companies want played or promoted. It too is a great song and performance. Admittedly, I am not usually a Reggie Smith fan, but thought he did really well and really loved this song when I got Lowry's CD a couple of years back.

    Applause from me too.....
    There are tons of wonderful songs that the public never even hear....and it's nice to hear of a DJ that doesn't only listen to your single, but can appreciate all your good songs!

    Does this mean that we'll see a Lowery Homecoming Friends Tour sometime soon? LOL!
