MERCY---This is CHURCH- Thank you LORD...BLESS EACH OF YOU

[marteybeku44]

This is SO BEAUTIFUL TO WITNESS. So many of these gospel music legends and pioneers are no longer with us. Dr. Horace Boyer, Billy Preston and others. This video clip has moved me to tears with so much emotion. Thank you so much for sharing this piece of history with the rest of us.

[raphael062002]

Who is that at 2:50 in the purple sweater? He looks so familiar just can't put a name to his face.

[KrazyKlay135]

Gawd Gospel beats all churchs!

[tiravocci]

if u are discouraged, just remember the words in this hymn...

[GeneSATB1]

[ivanberry19]

who was that at 3:15 with that black on hitting that high note someone help me

[PrazHymn83]

@ivanberry19 Gwen Morgan....of the Caravans.

[ivanberry19]

@PrazHymn83 thanks and god bless you for the info.

[birdmark100]

@ivanberry19 is there anybody that can name every person that is here because i know everyone here had some kind of contribution to gospel and because i would just love to get the history behind gospel legends

[birdmark100]

@ivanberry19 is there anyone here that can name all of the gospel legends in this video because i want to do some research on the gospel legends but i dont know many of the ppl here

[modelmethodist77]

@birdmark100

This was recorded in the 1990s by Bill and Gloria Gaither, a newer version recorded by MALACO is also on YOUTUBE, but I suggest you purchase the book, UNCLOUDY DAYS: THE GOSPEL MUSIC ENCYCLOPEDIA or another THE GOLDEN AGE OF GOSPEL (not sure of the title, but close) There several legendary groups represented by a the collection of people in this video and too many to name. I'd start with the recognizables like the CARAVANS, BARRETTS, WARD SINGERS. Hope that helps Be Blessed

[jbballard1992]

@ivanberry19 Her name is Cleo something...she was a Gospel Harmonette! The person w/ the black at 3:15 was Cassietta George, and she didn't hit those notes (her range isn't that high) and Cleo has a very distinct voice! :)...hope that helps!

[SHSfynest]

Who is the one voice that I am hearing over everyone else's? Somebody should've given them a mic. Lol

[TheSweetHoney09]

One Thing I Love About this Particular Choir.. Everyone is Enjoyin Singing the Praises of GOD... NoOne is There Trying To Out Do The Other Person, or Show Off With All of The Runs They Can Do With Their Voice. Everyone is Just Having a Great Time, and is in Harmony..... I LOVE IT =)

[456704]

@TheSweetHoney09 some times people dont do runs to show off, they do it because they are inspired to do it, but I agree, I love them, mann!!

[dman1351]

who is hitting those high notes????

[wdeadman49]

This is great! What group is this? I wanna join them..

[Simmi0609]

thanks for correcting me ... they resemble each other alot

[raphael062002]

Who is the guy at 2:42 in the purple sweater?

[BerniceJenkins2010]

@jayrocker that's not Cleo Kennedy that is Gwen Morgan

[jddrew1000]

@BerniceJenkins2010 WHAT THATS GWEN MORGAN OH WOW I CANT BELIEVE IT. I KNEW SHE HIT HIGH NOTES DURING HER TIME WITH THE CARAVANS BUT I AINT KNOW SHE COULD GO THAT HIGH. HOW DID YOU FIND THAT OUT.

[jayrocker]

Cleo Kennedy is popping those high notes!!

[warmlandlass1]

@jayrocker  I was wondering who was hitting those high notes~! Glory!!

[Simmi0609]

Memphis' Fannie Clark (Founder of the TN Mass Choir) is @ 2:05

[PrazHymn83]

@Simmi0609 I'm sorry, but that's Cassietta Georg, of The Caravans

[paulallen34]

fantastic piano playing loved it.

[dphmichigan]

This is how I remember church! I love this!

[warmlandlass1]

this rendition simply does not get any better--did I see Doris Akers at 4:06 sitting in the front row in a white sweater w/black decos on it??? somebody tell me, please?!

Billy Preston played the Hammond organ at Glad Tidings Temple's dedication in '62 or '63, can't remember which. Oh, but this is a fabulous video clip--truly annointed singing and playing!!

[PrazHymn83]

@warmlandlass1 Yup....that's her! Good eye!

[47djh48]

@PrazHymn83 Fantastic music by these Gospel Legends recorded at Gaither Studio years ago! Sure wish it was available on DVD. Doris Akers & the Sky Pilot Choir was my inspiration in the 60's. Love every minute of this posting! God inspired & anointed music can't be beat - and it doesn't get any better than this!

[sqairbiz]

@warmlandlass1 Amen and amen..just hear having all sorts of church.

[reddz1970]

@warmlandlass1 that was definitely her.

[reddz1970]

Bill & Gloria Gaither need to put all these on DVD and sell them...i would love to have all these in my DVD collection...we should all write and request them to be put on DVD! THis is true Gospel Music at it's best!!!!

[warmlandlass1]

@reddz1970 YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT--GET THEM RECORDED FOR PERPETUITY--ABSOLUTELY PRECIOUS MUSIC--Doris Akers taught our Glad Tidings Temple Choir how to really sing back in the early 60's

[ivanberry19]

@reddz1970 Amen.but that's probably not gonna happen.

[LASZLOBOY1]

This blessed a little old boy in the south tonight as I needed it !!!!

Thank you for posting. YOUR A BLESSING !

[alexp9999]

perhaps one day we'll experience this joy just for life itself regardless of shallow exterior 'differences'. we all gotta start rejecting the empty surface 'differences' that threaten to keep us Separate-But-Unequal by focusing sharply on the similarities that bind humanity together!!

i feel =)

[miznatacha]

Thanks for posting. This is wonderful.

[gosplluvr]
