Description
In the late 1930s musicians of the House of God, Keith Dominion Holiness-Pentecostal Church began playing their worship music on electric steel guitars. Taking the words from Psalm 150:4, "praise Him with stringed instruments" and Psalm 149:3, "let them praise His name in the dance", the guitarists developed unique styles, tunings, repertoires and techniques. Filmed on location in several churches, SACRED STEEL traces the development of this tradition through interviews, performances and historic footage. Featuring Elder Maurice "Ted" Beard, The Campbell Brothers with Katie Jackson, Calvin Cooke, Willie Eason, Elder Aubrey Ghent, Rev. Glenn Lee, Robert Randolph, Henry Nelson and more. 55 minutes total running time.
