"Go Tell It On The Mountain" is the slow-dance track on the album. It was the other most difficult song to make (after “O Little Town of Bethlehem”. I abandoned about six full versions of this song before coming up with this one. The inspiration for this was Jan Hammer’s “Crockett’s Theme” from Miami Vice. What I end up with sounds very little like Jan Hammer’s theme, but there are subtle nods his direction.
