About This Song
About "Straight Street (Arr. J.H. Jennings)" by Chanticleer
Jennings' arrangement of the gospel standard turns the street into a stage for call-and-response. Chanticleer's voices strut and sway, the harmony tight as a fist but loose enough to swing. There's a joyful swagger here, sacred text delivered with a wink and a hallelujah.
