    Lamont....As you would do Faces In Death videos, @3:01, I noticed the crypt of Justin Wayne Weatherspoon Jr as he died aged 19 and was curious to know how he died. Upon Googling his name, he tragically was a victim of gun violence. The young man had hardly lived as I noticed that a number of people died young in this video, which always makes me grateful for the one true blessing of life that I absolutely treasure. As for the legendary lady Mahalia Jackson, I wish I could have met her to hear what she went through during her early years and how she inspired many a gospel singer. Her voice was truly remarkable and ageless. Many thanks for posting.

I am from Arizona and had no idea until a year ago that Phoenix had its own Chitlin Circuit and it's own thriving Blues and Jazz music scene that was wiped out by urban development.. I would love to include this woman in my American musical studies and if she has surviving relatives I would love to interview them at some point! Thank you so much for the work that you do! Cultural heritage preservation work is NOT EASY and Freedmen, we are that one cultural group that has been so tough to keep reliable records for!

    I remember my parents bought a Christmas album with all the popular singers on it and Mahalia was one of them. I always tried to sing like her as she sang Away in a Manger. It was my understanding that she was not admitted to a certain hospital when she had her heart attack, and it was because of that and the time they wasted in order to treat her, that she passed away. That always made me very sad.

    LAMONT!!! I love you for this. This is so random and I am a HUGE FAN OF MAHALIA. I was listening to her when I was 16 years old and I loved her soul. I was an old soul and am now. Thanks for this. My favorite song of hers is " Joshua fit the Battle of Jericho!"

    A movie was made about her life with Ledisi portraying her. Saw it a couple of months ago at the Pan Am film festival in Los Angeles. Excellent film on her life.
