Various Artists: Good News - 100 Gospel Greats


Various Artists : Good News-100 Gospel Greats
Genre: Gospel	Dates: 1926-1951

Enough to convert a hardened atheist: an all-star black gospel revival sprawling across four CDs, with no dip in inspiration (of any kind). The lineup: the Dixie Hummingbirds, the Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet, Sister Rosetta Tharpe (whom Elvis regularly sprinted home from high school to catch on the radio, and who played a nasty electric guitar), Dorothy Love Coates, the Five Blind Boys of both Alabama and Mississippi, Mahalia Jackson, and many, many more. Hallelujah, indeed.
