  • Mahalia Jackson singing one of my absolute favorites, "Elijah Rock," during 1 of many concerts during her European tour in April of 1961. There is so much power in her voice! The awesome Mildred Falls is the pianist! I hope you all will enjoy!!

    That Anointing was just for her. Nobody can teach someone to sing like her, almost 65 years later there has not been anyone like her. Because you can't teach the Anointing!

    My dear sister played this album when it came out in about 1961. This was my first exposure to gospel. In recent years, the posting of the video from that tour made me so happy. Mildred Falls has never gotten the recognition that she deserved. Yes, people praise her in the comments but she is the greatest. I love Mahalia

    One of my MANY FAVS of Ms. Mahalia!!
    Ms. Falls was an amazing pianist and was like Mahalia's shadow..... Making sure to flow in harmony. We have so many talented Gospel singers, but no one holds a 🕯️ to this powerful voice.
    It's been so neat seeing live clips - I've owned the LP's & CD's for some time, getting to see the Holy Spirit pour out is all you need to know that this most humble woman is singing for the Lord.

  • @JudahCub1981
    @JudahCub1981 Год назад +22

    I think these 1961 concerts and the album: Everytime I Feel The Spirit are the best recordings of her voice. We get the full depth, weight and power of her voice from the halls’ acoustics. There’s also minimal background sounds to take away from its nuances.

    @4:11-4:13 - when Mahalia hit that piano twice, I believe she "scared" Mildred, for a moment, who slightly jumps, as she was concentrating on playing!

    Mahalia gained wider recognition and prominence when Mildred Falls became her pianist.
    Yes, Mahalia was famous before they teamed up, but exponentially so after they did.
    Listen to all the recordings pre Mildred, then all the recordings with Mildred. You will know the difference.
    I can't recall the exact wording, but Mildred had somewhat of a boogie fist, as with other genre popular accompaniment at that era.

    So IS there another female singer of gospel music that is CLEARLY in the same vocal range as her? , yes i understand that we had some that were close, like Lashun Pace.. but she was different. I don't think we will see another Mahalia Jackson.

    Is it me or did Mahalia come in a little late? And Mildred quickly adjusted and doubled on those notes so that her entry would be smoother than a fresh jar Skippy?

    • @Rowoches

      Yes, you heard correctly. Mahalia had bad timing at times. All of her accompanists knew how to follow her to a tee 🙂
