In this collection of Religious Songs and Drums in the Bahamas, Marshall Stearns demonstrates the strong external influences on Bahamian music and culture. The religious music by the Baptist-Methodist Group and the Congregation of the Church of God suggest a certain influence of American gospel music, while the drumming of the "Ring Game," "Heel and Toe Polka," and "Jumping Dance" indicate a continuance of African drumming traditions with the scraping element of a saw, unique to Bahamian "rake 'n' scrape" music.
