Guide Me Oh Thou Great Jehovah (Vinyl LP) - Rev. FC Barnes & Rev. Janice...
Rev. Faircloth "FC" Barnes June 24, 1929 - July 11, 2011
Around 1979, Bishop Barnes was doing a radio broadcast at WSRV in Rocky Mount, NC, which is where he met Rev. Janice Brown. They recorded "It's Me Again Lord" at home on a reel-to-reel tape recorder just to play on their broadcast. Whenever the song aired, people would call in to the station asking them to play it again. They called so often that the station's manager encouraged them to make a record of it so that he could legally play it. Bishop Barnes and Rev. Brown went into the studio and recorded that song along with "Come On In The Room". The single eventually caught the ear of Wendell Parker who at the time worked at AIR Records. He then played it for Ron Freeman, the owner of the label. Mr. Freeman loved it and he offered them a recording contract. The rest, as it is said, is history.
They eventually would record eight albums together, highlighted by the smash hit song "Rough Side Of The Mountain". The album of the same name remained number 1 on the gospel charts for over a year, selling over 500,000 copies. It continues to sell strongly to this day. Rev. Brown parted in 1988 to get married and Bishop Barnes formed a group he named Company, which concisted of his nieces Deborah Barnes, Wanda Barnes, and Lisa Barnes.
