This review is from: Volume 2 (Audio CD)

This is a beautifully put together box set of 2 CD's containing 36 of her recordings 1954-1969. Also included is a book containing a brief biography & some nice black & white photos.
The quality & sound of this CD is excellent.
I like the toe tapping faster songs on this CD such as I'm Glad About It, How I Got Over, I Love The Lord, It Don't Cost Much, He Calmed The Ocean, He's Right On Time, Have You Any Time For Jesus? I guess I could go on. I liked CD #2 best because it was a little livelier. This is another great CD put out by Columbia Records.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely fantastic, October 20, 1998

Everyone I've shown/played this to has loved it. Everyone has their favorites, but Summertime, Walk in Jerusalem and Let the Church Roll On are brilliant. I'm not much of a gospel listener usually, but Mahalia's voice is unbelievable. The series is put together beautifully, with a booklet giving some history about the artist. Thoroughly recommended. I've got to order volume 1 now!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Outstanding, November 3, 1999

This review is from: Volume 2 (Audio CD)

I am anti religion but this music is so incredible that I can't help but love it. Mahalia has such an incredible voice and the energy here is indeed very uplifting. The music simply swings and draws you out of your seat. I guess I miss a big piece of what this music is about because I generally ignore the meaning behind the words but Mahalia is still one of my favorite singers.
