Happy Birthday Queen of gospel Mahalia Jackson 26 oktober 1911 - 27 januari 1972 .Here some new clips with the songs i see god and come on children lets sing .
Its 2021 This is the voice of an absolute Angel. It I ssd's a disgrace that no one in the last century has listened to Real Gospel music , the like of Mahalia Jackson and James Cleveland. We Black people are now lost with our faith in the Lord. It is just a shame!!!! Thank you Mahalia Jackson
Her voice is so powerful. It carries us all to divinity. Little do we know that she prompted Martin Luther King Jr. to speak about " I have a Dream". Thank you Mahalia, it was God prompting through you, which made those iconic words a beacon of Equality and Justice.
Mahalia Jackson & sa voix de légende sa puissance & très clair me laisse toujours sur l'extase car c'était une femme merveilleuse avec un grand professionnalisme quand elle chantait je vous la conseil vivement
She had to work under crazy musical constraints, in order to sing on tv as a black person. You can tell at 4:43, it was hard for her to lead the choir because the choir didn’t leave enough room in between their “come on children let’s sing” lines. Also at 5:38 you can tell that Mahalia didn’t know which tempo the choir/band was going to end on. And she still persevered anyways, despite all of the limitations placed on her with the intention of dimming her light.
Exactly! During the late fifties and early sixties, record producers and tv execs were always trying to make her and the gospel sound more palatable for white audiences (where the money was). That’s why I prefer her later work where she went back to her roots and audiences got raw Mahalia.
