I Couldn't Make It Without Him
Blue Circle Records BCR-027


I Couldn't Make It Without Him is Jay's forth CD release and his first all gospel on Blue Circle Records. This recording has been a goal that he has had since his first solo release in 1995, "Just Lookin' For Fun", which has received many compliments.



“We are elated and so very proud to have Jay Armsworthy’s new project, I Couldn’t Make It Without Him, on Blue Circle Records. It is indeed a first class endeavor from engineering and production, fine musicianship and the talent and dedication of Jay himself right on thru the classy art work. Nothing was spared to bring to you the very finest... most heartwarming. When we praised the work, Jay’s response was “I couldn’t make it without Him”. -- Dixie and Tom T. Hall 

“This album gives some promise to Bluegrass Gospel that it will be taken care of in future years to come by people like Jay Armsworthy. ---Larry Sparks

This is a fun, upbeat tune. It was the first released single from this CD. It is bound to be a favorite.

The title cut from this project, this song talks about taking things upon our own, then realizing that we can’t do it without the will of God.
