This was a great dvd. It showed Willie Banks and the messengers performing some of their songs. I would recommend this dvd to anyone who likes good gospel music.

One of the few filmed performances of the great Willie Banks. Must see viewing for anyone who says they like good old gospel singing.

The best . Good down home religion. They don't sing it with that kind of passion anymore.

God Bless Willie Banks

Tell it like it is. I'm 57 years old (white) and grew up on Black Gospel with my grandfather in the fields of South Carolina. This has to be the best DVD in my collection. When I listen and watch, it's heartwarming to know that Willie is still blessing through God's music from the grave. The quality is EXCELLENT. Willie knows the Bible and what he's singing about. I would recommend that somehow you could make sure buyers know this is the live performance of GOSPEL LEDGENDS IN JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI. I searched all the cuts on You Tube looking for every song Willie did in the silver suit and hoped that was what I was ordering. And it was. I love it. Play it everyday. Everyone who loves gospel needs this DVD.

I purchased this and a couple of other old-time gospel cds and dvds for my mom for Mother's Day! She absolutely loved all of them. She is crazy about Willie Banks and has never seen him in video and had not been able to find any of his music in the small town in which she resides. She was tickled pink to see him again stating she has not seen "her man" in over 20 years! My mom watches this over and over and says this really takes her mind back to some good times!

This video is one of the best I have seen as far as old fashioned, pure gospel singing is concerned. Each song is soulful and the sincerity of Willie Banks is evident in each song. On the other hand, I just purchased the other Willie Banks video and was very disappointed because the picture, sound, selection of songs, and delivery were far less pleasing as the "In Concert" video. If I had seen the other one first, I never would have considered buying "In Concert".
