LA Ute is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Wilberg and Rutter

I have the Thanksgiving of American Folk Hymns CD and listen to it often in the car. "Come Thou Fount" is fun to listen to even though it has gotten so popular that I hear it more than I'd like to.

Tidbit about that hymn: It was removed from the latest edition of the LDS hymnal because it was thought to be too difficult for most members to sing. That seems like a dumb reason to me, but at least it was not removed because someone thought it was "too Protestant." My brother and I had heard a rumor to that effect and so my brother called Michael Moody (then the Church music jefe) and asked him. He told my brother it was because of the difficulty of the song.

Now, on what other sports board can you get information like this?
