Ernestine Washington . She was on tour with other great names like Archie Dennis Gloria Griffin Roberta Martin singers Lorraine Ellinson singers and The Twiligth Gospel Singers here the complete program
Madame Ernestine Washington has the tone of a female James Brown. She has one of the most powerful voices I've ever heard in my life and I can't help but cry when I hear her sing. I can only imagine what she must have sounded like live.
Archie Dennis was a wonderful man. Very kind and powerfully anointed. I met him many years ago when I was traveling with Nancy Harmon. All of these singers have class. Just a lot of class.
If you desire the spirit of God to lift you above mundane matters listen to traditional gospel of my people which say, “Take my hand my brother because we’re gonna make it.”
Finally, finally, finally, someone has posted a live video of my favorite traditional gospel group - The Roberta Martin Singers. Even though Roberta and Delois are missing (I hear Lucy singing soprano while playing the piano or organ), this is still a GREAT treat to me. If you have any other footage if them, please post it. I would loved to see and hear Narcellus McKissick sing too. (smile)
