5.0 out of 5 stars God put a Rainbow in the Sky>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>, September 17, 2001
By pina3470 "pina3470" (Bronx, New York United States) - See all my reviews
We have to appreciate the Elder and Mature... Because when it came to Gospel this is it. Now we have music that makes you want to do the bump/grind... There should always be clarity when sing about The Lord. I have heard contempory artist say "We have to bring the Lord down to the Lord..No we have to bring ourselves up to meet his standards.. Ms. Jackson, can sang and you will be touched

5.0 out of 5 stars amazing, April 8, 2008
Mahalia Jackson is often lauded as the greatest gospel singer of all time; but, this collection proves that even that high praise understates her gift. She was undoubtedly one of the finest recording artists of any genre and this anthology explores the full range of her abilities from raw gospel (Elijah Rock), to soaring anthems (Rock of Ages) and quaint folk ballads (It Don't Cost Very Much) - all of them sung with the perfect degree of power or restraint, rhythm or melody. If you only own one Mahalia Jackson collection, this is the one to buy.
