I Love this song but I especially love the part when Clara comes in "Tell Me Who'll Be There"!
-
Beautiful solo from Frances Steadman on this one. Her use of garnishing melisma is flawless. Warm, rich and embracing.

Clara Ward was my grandmothers 1st cousin, God rest their souls. I don't know very much about her, but I plan on doing lots of research into my family tree. She was awesome.

I love that pic of Clara with the mic at 1:19. I would LOVE to incorporate that into a Sunday solo one day, maybe that'll take the attention away from my cracking voice, lol. Who are those Ward singers behind her?

Before Dorinda, Karen, Jacky, and Twinkie (but not Denise, lol) were sporting the big hats and sequin dresses like they do now, Clara was, as Dorothy Norwood would say, "PAAAAAAAAAAAVIN THA' WAY!" lol.

One of the lead singers sounds like Marion Williams!

@TheFirecogicuk: You're correct! When I first posted this, I listed the soloists in the vid description; Frances Steadman, Clara Ward, & Marion Williams.
