    It is THRILLING to hear this by the wonderful Drinkards after all these many years. I have been searching for the Gospel Live at Newport record to no avail. Thank you VERY MUCH for posting this. What an upper!

      I'd been searching for this album for over 23 years. One day at the flea market in Amsterdam l found it to my great surprise for 50 cents!!! Never will l forget that sunny spring day in 1989! Same here, the live at Newport l never found, but a friend has it. 'That's enough' is from that album, not the one pictured here.

    Judy Clay was still a few months off her 20th birthday when this was recorded. Dunno about anyone else, but I wasn't doing anything this fantastic when I was 19. Thanks for a fantatic post! GO JUDY!!!!!

      t is the Wrong sleeve, the music is from a live at Newport Album on Verve, not the RCA album pictured, which was the first black Gospel LP ever released and is a studio lp. The Verve lp has one side by the Drinkards and the other side a choir..

      @@boleary100 You're right. I have the rca album, french issue with this photo but in black and white. I've seen/heard the live at Newport album at a friends house with 'that's enough' on it. I thought her name was Guions, not Guirions. Judy was Sylvia Shemwell's sister, who sang with the Sweet Inspirations later, simular voice as Judy. Never knew it was the first black gospel album. Thanks for the information.

    Wow! Love it! I thought Dorothy Love Coates & Original Gospel Harmonettes did it first in 1956 but either way, BOTH of these groups sound outstanding! Even today in 2010 you can still hear groups sing "That's Enough."

    I do believe you get an A for that. They are by far one of my personal favorites for many years. We sent to see them at the Apollo in NY and walked from 125th st back to 42nd st still caught up with their performance. Judy laid on the stage singing Sweet Hour Of Prayer. Wow!! good old days.

    This is a Dorothy Love Coates composition. So it's flattering that the lead delivers it in a style that's quite similar to DLC's.

      No.. they were her mother, and her mother's sisters and one of her brothers. Whitney's grandma died when Cissy was 5 so she was never part of the Drinkard singers & neither was Dionne.. But you are correct, this is Whitney and Dionne's family

    Hey!!! my mom has been looking for the album this song is from for YEARS.
    the album is called The Drinkard Singers And The Back Home Choir at Newport
    It is from the Newport folk festival 1957.
    I am very keen on finding this ultra out of print album for my mom.... what chance is there you could upload the other tracks and send us the mp3s? the main other song she wants to hear is walk all over God's heaven
    i'll be your best friend!!!
