About "Atom Bomb": 

The Blind Boys show a special talent for bringing their church-like flair to material from the rock era, including a simmering rendition of Norman Greenbaum’s “Spirit in the Sky” and an organ-drenched take on Eric Clapton’s “Presence of the Lord.” Yet the Blind Boys never lose track of their true roots. Their versions of old-school gospel tunes (“Talk About Suffering” and “Old Blind Barnabas”) sound suitable for the ANTHOLOGY OF AMERICAN FOLK MUSIC, if not for the slinky blues instrumentation and high-end production. Outstanding musicianship from keyboardist Billy Preston, harmonica player Charlie Musselwhite, and guitarist David Hidalgo (of Los Lobos) adds a special sheen to ATOM BOMB, another winning disc from these gospel legends
