[Fearnao]

Wonderful - GOD has truly gifted her with a GREAT voice!!!!

[ShirleyHightower]

Yes sing to God, let in me heard all over the world.

[HeartVisions]

That was beautiful Alice. The Lord has really blessed you with a beautiful spirit-filled voice.

[stlred05]

She is Bad

[kranberrysaws]

Wow, I just found out that she is Gabourey Sidibe's mom. Such a talented family!

[moseseseseses]

I played music for black churches up in the woods of Mississippi, and had we had this voice in any of those services, we would have had been swinging from the chandaliers with high praises to God. Those little back wood churches is where the power of God would come down and give people instant deliverance in their life that they needed. These modern day Laodicean churches of today have to much starch in their collers. Caddilac christianity and Rolex religion is what it is all about today.

[sweatyhot]

This isOscar nominee Gabby Siddebe's mother Alice Tan Ridley. She is very talented.

[moseseseseses]

Just like Elisha had twice the anointing of Elijah, so this woman here has twice the anointing of Mahalia Jackson. What a voice. Talk about a revival . Revival is in this woman's voice. Oh my, I wish she could sing at every church that is on fire for God.

[comonlaflo]

I can really hear the Mahalia influence, but if I had to compare her voice to one of the renowned Gospel Singers, it would definitely be Ms. Bessie Griffin!
