Synopsis
Product Description
The celebrated writer, researcher and gospel music guru Opal Louis Nations once wrote that the New Orleans-born Mahalia Jackson (1911-1972) was not only considered the queen of black gospel music but possibly the most widely admired and broadly accepted African American church singer in the
history of the genre. That description captures the essence of the remarkable lady and provides the context for this collection of some of her most significant and inspiring recordings.
This release presents eighteen magnificent examples of Mahalia's unique gospel vocals, including two of her greatest hits, I Will Move On Up A Little Higher and In The Upper Room , along with other classics of
the genre.
