"Come Sunday" (Live)- Mahalia Jackson

A live recording of Mahalia singing "Come Sunday."

This was recorded on July 3, 1958, during Duke Ellington's portion of the Newport Jazz Fest concert. This happens to be the night before Mahalia's big concert, which can be found on CD.

Rowaches is this from Newport 1957? mahalia did a number of sacred concerts with Duke Elington?

[Rowoches]

Remember what I mentioned about Mahalia's concert of '57 at Newport? None of the 1957 material has been released of Mahalia's.

This was done in 1958, the night before Mahalia's big concert (which is on CD MAHALIA JACKSON LIVE AT NEWPORT, 1958).

This "Come Sunday" and the "Keep Your Hand On The Plow" that I posted was done during one portion of Duke Ellington's concert, which can be found on DUKE ELLINGTON & HIS ORCHESTRA LIVE AT NEWPORT, 1958.

When I was a child growing up in the desert of California in the '50's there was a show on Sunday mornings on KFWB called 'Jazz goes to church," it was gospel music and we would blast it from our old Philco Radio and it would always end with this song at 11:30. Brings back so many memories, good and bad, the whites weren't really happy to have us there in the late '40's and early '50's, but still in all, this brings it all back, yea, Mahalia Come Sunday indeed.

[ellingtonia1899429]

Thank you. This song has encouraged me. Yes, Sunday will come to Japan, too.

All of the Newport concerts mostly sit in a vault. The filmed events just sit and rest too.. Which is such a shame. Thank you for sharing this. I've seen "Jazz on a Summer's Day. which I supposed is the 1958 concert she did the next day.....

@PrettyVillan Actually it was written back in 1941 for "Black Brown and Beige."
