"THE KINGS OF GOSPEL" An Uplifting Collection Of 15 Gospel Greats

A solid collection of 15 gospel greats from the legendary Hob label that works as a solid compilation on its own or as the other side of the gender coin with its sister volume, the excellent Queens of Gospel. Drawn from the label's 50-year deep vaults, this collection features superb selections from the Dixie Hummingbirds, the Harmonizing Four, the Mighty Clouds of Joy, the Five Singing Stars, the Brooklyn All Stars, the Flying Clouds, the Cross Jordan Singers, and the Clefs of Calvary. Like its companion volume, it's filled with performances specifically arranged and performed with single-length recordings (three minutes or so) in mind, but their conciseness gives them each a tighter format and ultimately pulls each of the performances into sharper focus. Some of the most glorious singing you're likely to run across. (Cub Koda, Allmusic)trax:
