This review is from: Wade in the Water: The Wisdom of the Spirituals (Paperback)
I want to echo the sentiments about this book. It is a delightful book. Art Jones brings a special insight and passion to this work. He is both a highly respected psychologist and also a consummate performer, himself, of the music and it's history. I highly recommend this book.

This review is from: Wade in the Water: The Wisdom of the Spirituals (Hardcover)
I used this book as the basis for my History of Gospel Music class here at Western Maryland College and it worked out great. Each chapter is broken down to different emotions, and it even comes with a cassette of songs you can send away for. It's all great.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Extraordinary Book!,
This review is from: Wade in the Water: The Wisdom of the Spirituals (Paperback)
The most extraordinary book on The Spirituals (the root of all African American Music) to date!!! I use it in my courses on Rhythm and Blues and Jazz here at Boston College. It is a required text for my choral group called The Voices of Imani. I recommend it highly!!
