By A Customer
This review is from: Best Loved Spirituals (Audio CD)
I will always remember this wonderful person's music.as a child I would sit in front of the radio and listen to her sing.and when I grew a little older I would sing along with her.Now as a adult I just can't help myself I'm singing all the time,and I'll never get tired of listening to the first "Queen of Gospel"Praise God! and Amen.

Prayer Changes Things,
By Bill Cleland (Winchester, Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Best Loved Spirituals (Audio CD)
My favorite songs on this album (formerly entitled "Everytime I Feel the Spirit") are Prayer Changes Things and Everytime I Feel the Spirit. This was recorded circa 1961, an era when Mahalia was ever-present on TV. She had already starred in two films ("St. Louis Blues" and "Imitation of Life"). She had a heavy concert schedule and was at the zenith of her popularity. I was one of those fans even then. The combination of her gospel musicians (pianist Mildred Falls, etc.) and the driving beat of many of these songs typically characterize the famous "Mahalia swing." She sang so well she was just "sinfully" great. I felt the haunting effects of the bluesy "Have You Any Time For Jesus?" long after the stylus lifted off the record.
3.0 out of 5 stars
A good album but disturbed sound,
By Steven "sweethotpepper" (Germany) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Best Loved Spirituals (Audio CD)
Unfortunately Sony SPECIAL PRODUCTS brought out another of Mahalia's great original albums named 'Everytime I Feel The Spirit' ,but with an unbelievable bad sound on cd. If I take my over 40 years old Columbia Records album I find a thousand times better sound than here.
The lost 2 stars are for that bad sound-quality. |
