Those were the days when people truly served God with their whole heart and mind. This man is the greatest black male gospel singer and black choir director that ever lived and none can duplicate him.🎉❤
Yes, I agree. It is such a joy to see how God has blessed and anointed so many gay and lesbian Christians in black churches to provide this ministry in music. This is what the kingdom is all about: heterosexual and gay Christians praising God and offering the beloved community of Koinonea. Amen church!
The Late Great Sister Albertina Walker did that!!! And my, my, my...Mother Loretta Oliver had to go in!!! Not for show, but when you know what you know about Him...Glory!!!
Thank god somebody added this back. Loretta Oliver took that mic, Wait she didn't even need the mic. LOL KILLED IT. Truly anointed woman!!!!! #BaptistFit #oldSchoolchurch
I've been watching this video for years and I'm still getting happy off it. When the choir members break they necks when Miss Loretta goes off, gets me errrrrytime!
Old school Hand clapping, foot stomping, Devil knockout, choir singing. 🎵 When I was a boy, there were times the preacher couldn't do anything because the Holy Ghost took over. ⛪
I love this song the band killing i love all of rev James Cleveland music he is the reason I love old school gospel I miss him so much i love the way he use to play
Stanley mosley My mom is the one with the braids in center frame from 1:25 - 1:32! I think she might’ve been in her late teens or early 20s in this video.
The late Rev. Marvin Yancy on the piano. I thought I saw Alonzo Atkins. The organist is referred to as "Mickey." Please help me with the other musicians. Thanks for sharing this rare treat. : )
What? Death? Lol. This is the story of Queen Esther who had to have a word with her husband the king. It is about courage. Because she could have died herself, but she said... if I perish, let me perish. I am going to see the king. The song is not about dying. The queen and the people did live, in spite of Haman's plan to have them decimated, because of her historic courage. That is what Purim, a Jewish holiday is about. Whoa! I feel great joy!
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego said the same. They said ... "whatever. We are not bowing down to you, king. If we perish, then we perish." They were thrown in the fire, but they were delivered.
Rev Marvin Yancy, Rev. James (King of gospel) Cleveland, Albertina (queen of gospel) Walker, Clay Evan's church choir fellowship missionary Baptist church at least some of members and Mickey on the organ..... what more can one ask for. BTW they should have got a Hammond B3 organ, it would have sounded much better.
+Giles Golding Hello Giles, a friend sent me just this part of it because he knows i love Albertina Walker ,and James Cleveland so i don't know where to find the whole thing, sorry.

Black folks come to church having church- giving God all the praises. You can’t sit them down! James Cleveland loving it.
We need to go back to this!!!! We don’t have Gospel concerts like this anymore. Everyone wanna be all cute with their praise
when the young people from the neighborhoods would join together to worship and praise God and not be ashamed of being Saved !!
rev James Cleveland was so professional at making music I miss the king of gospel
A PRO!

I've been watching this video for years and I'm still getting happy off it. When the choir members break they necks when Miss Loretta goes off, gets me errrrrytime!
I know exactly when Loretta Oliver jumps up at the end of this and yet she manages to get me everytime...
OH yes. She can make you move
Old school Hand clapping, foot stomping, Devil knockout, choir singing. 🎵
When I was a boy, there were times the preacher couldn't do anything because the Holy Ghost took over. ⛪

Stanley mosley My mom is the one with the braids in center frame from 1:25 - 1:32! I think she might’ve been in her late teens or early 20s in this video.

+Harold Gardner It's Mickey.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🔥🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
At 3:20 and 5:20 respectively, thats the holy ghost taking over. I've been in services were you had to take saints out like that. Sing Loretta
Something got hold of them and would turn them loose.
Real gospel old school
Yes LORD!💓🙏🏼
Thank you for bringing this rare clip back!! Yay!!
The Piano is considered in the Percussion instrument Family!!!
Summer 1973.. Classic
LOVE THIS! Praise Him!!!
they killing
Marvin Yancy wrote for his ex-wife Natalie Cole "This Will Be, Inseperable, Our Love and many others, this was right before he married her.
They gone to glory now.
And Rev is the one who married them!
Alright Loretta Oliver!!!
Praise God! What a treasure. Thank you for sharing this!
When the saints got happy about death.
What? Death? Lol. This is the story of Queen Esther who had to have a word with her husband the king. It is about courage. Because she could have died herself, but she said... if I perish, let me perish. I am going to see the king.
The song is not about dying. The queen and the people did live, in spite of Haman's plan to have them decimated, because of her historic courage. That is what Purim, a Jewish holiday is about. Whoa! I feel great joy!
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego said the same. They said ... "whatever. We are not bowing down to you, king. If we perish, then we perish." They were thrown in the fire, but they were delivered.
And Daniel said the same. Not praying to you, king. He got thrown into a lions' den. But didn't die.
JESUS said the same. He said... get away from me... Worship God only. He did die; but only because He wanted to. You know about it. 😏
This song has nothing to do about death.❤
Tony ,thanks for postin
Yes Lord
the best
Classic
2:26 yes suh! And the power at 2:11 and 1:08 sing it Tina!
4:04 love that soprano in the background
@@steven2312 I too love those old school wailing sopranos in gospel music. You just can't beat Delores Washington of the caravans.
I would love for this audio to be updated
Is there some more videos like this one somewhere
Rev Marvin Yancy, Rev. James (King of gospel) Cleveland, Albertina (queen of gospel) Walker, Clay Evan's church choir fellowship missionary Baptist church at least some of members and Mickey on the organ..... what more can one ask for. BTW they should have got a Hammond B3 organ, it would have sounded much better.
A little trivia: Marvin Yancy and Natalie Cole were married by Albertina's then husband Rev. Reynolds, she even loaned Natalie her wedding dress.
mrtheoneandonly 83 Yancy married miss cole right?
K. crawl Yes Natalie was married to him at one point.
K. crawl Yes.
