So sad that we lost some of our greats during the 70s Clara Ward, Mahalia Jackson, Ruth (baby) Davis, Brother Joe May, sister Rosetta Tharpe, Proff Alex Bradford. All died before they were 60 or 61. R.I.P gospel greats.
Cleophus recorded this because someone had written that his vocal cords were controlled by Rosetta, Mahalia, and Joe. So he turned the lemon into lemonade. Notice how he says there were only four soloists (meaning there's nobody alive now but him.) He left out a lot of great men and women. Notice too how he goes out mocking both Roebuck and Mavis Staples. Shameless or brave, take your pick.
