I really wonder what Shirley Caesar and Albertina Walker thought about Mahalia and the title of "Queen of Gospel"?

[jamminondakeys]

Mahalia was Albertina Walker's mentor. Albertina has said herself that she did not assume the title "Queen of Gospel" until Mahalia Jackson passed.

The great singers send chills down my spine when I listen to them. Her singing comes from deep down in her soul and is incredibly inspirational to hear.

Amazing! This woman shows up at a jazz festival, ministers the Gospel with her beautiful God-given singing voice, and brings the house down. Well done, Ms. Jackson; well done, good and faithful servant of the Lord! Hallelujah to the Lamb!

[Kelton Xavier]

Mahalia Jackson to Black Gospel Music is like God to the world
