Stuck In Thee Garage #92: August 21, 2015

Religion has always been a hot-button topic in this country. Hell, it was the reason this country was formed. While I'm sure there will always be debate over the role of religion in our society, there's no denying that there are plenty of great songs about religion. This week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I played an hour of religion-themed music. Don't mistake that with religious music, mind you.

Well, isn't that special?
