I Always refer to her as THE GREAT Bessie Griffin! Exciting in every way, especially those recording this queen made in the late 40s and 50s!

I been a lover of Bessie Griffin and the Gospel Pearls for a long time since I heard the album
" Gospel Soul". First time I seen her on video. Thanks very much. I dont think I`ve ever heard any lady with such an obvious God given vocal gift since Joan Baez ( different style of course ) however they both make me shiver. Bessie looks a real sweetie too. I dont know much about her life.

She was SO young then, but the voice...oh, boy! It was there...
Many thanks for posting. All the best, diana

@DonDiva4u03 Mahalia and Bessie were both born in New Orleans ten years apart, Bessie was often compared to Mahalia.

She reminds me of Mahalia Jackson! Her pain and telling a story is all in her voice.
