- Today, January 27, 2023, marks 51 years of Queen Mahalia Jackson's death. From 1972 to this very moment, her music and life continue to bless people's homes, airwaves, and tv/movie screens! She built such a rich legacy, which is a great foundation for those who wish to share God's message. I hope that you all will enjoy "Didn't It Rain," which is a song she frequently sung, but prior to this video, I've never witnessed her singing the song like this!
Recorded in France in 1968, and accompanied by the Drayton Singers, Charles Clency (Organ), and the late Eddie Robinson (piano).

All the years I've been followingMahalia..firsttimeI've seen this; Thank You.
Like David, Sister Mahalia dancing before the Lord with all her heart. Holy woman with a Holy Dance.
Proud to say. We love her
I recognize members of mighty clouds of Joy up there with her Love Mahalia!!
That's actually a group called The Drayton Singers. The late Girard Drayton is the founder, and he's the one on the far right. He's originally from Baltimore, which is where I'm originally from also.
Wow, lady Mahalia Jackson in France!
Mahalia was feeling it. I got worried about her wig. Hair pins made by Jesus.
God shut the door to the ark, and, yes, clamped the pins on her wig. His arm is strong 💪
Hilarious comment 😄 thanks for the laugh.
That was the dumbest thing I have ever read, and so were the replies. Ignorance loves company.
Dipping Doo held it together.
Reat in Peace ✌ Mahalia jackson 💚 the Queen of gospel..
This is the only time a camera caught Mahalia shouting/ doing the holy dance. One reason may be her quartet background. Though it's rarely noticed, Mahalia was steeped in the quartet tradition. Eugene Smith of the Roberta Martin Singers remembered the Prince Johnson Singers (with whom Jackson rocked Chicago in the mid-30s) as a "quartet group," essentially a quartet with piano accompaniment as opposed to a gospel group like the Martins (Roberta or Sallie) or Wards. Eddie
Robinson looks mighty serious at the keyboard.
That makes sense why she was good at choir arrangements and directing. You jogged my memory - I read somewhere she used to work with a choir at a St. Lukes Baptist Church I think it was called.
Hello Mr. Heilbut. I first came across your name on the liner notes of Mahalia's Garden of Prayer. The year I got that album was June 1967. I've read The Gospel Sound and followed your work over many decades. Good to hear from you.
Depois dela nada existiu igual....apenas imitações....e nunca mais existira foi grande no seu tempo...e tudo.fazia pro Senhor !!!
Verdade realmente ela não era desse mundo RS, maior cantora Gospel de todos o milênio, como disse o pastor Martin Lutter King
She truly is a Diva Assoluta………nothing she can’t do. I just pray she treads carefully…we want to hear her for a long time
Ms. Jackson has been gone from earth for over 50 years now, but her music and influence will continue to live through those who love and appreciative her life and music.
The best!
They’ll never be another 💐🫶🏾
I absolutely love this! Thank you so much for all the wonderful videos you post. I don't want us to ever lose sight of all of the great pioneers and the music they did. It is priceless and far too many people are oblivious to them. Again, thank you Sir!
You are so welcome!
SHE WAS A REVIVALIST, LIKE DAVID , SHE BLESSED THE LORD WITH ALL THAT WAS IN HER UNTIL HER LAST BREATH. THE CULTURAL MINDSET WAS VERY MILD, BUT GOD IN HIS PERFECT KNOWLEDGE PLACE HER IN THAT GENERATION TO BE AN EXAMPLE OF BEING EVEN MORE INDIGIFIED THAN THIS.
Oh yes
It was coming on her right about here. 4:40
Are any of the background singers still alive?
Omg thank you for sharing this!!! I love to see Mahalia go into a dance! For so long, all we saw was her singing slow and mournfully. But this gives people the side of Mahalia a lot of people need to see! Thank you! I love this!
You're very welcome
When I was 14 yes old, my father pastored a Church of God church that had some missionaries that were close to 80. They told me “Mahalia Jackson came and sang at their prayer breakfast. I wanna tell you when she opened her mouth to sing a powerful fire fell all in that place. It came down like a thunder and people were shouting everywhere. The hand of God was one her in an unusual way.” We grew up listening to her music. My dad said she was one of the greatest musical evangelists that ever lived.
This is the Sallie Martin Singers Version as well as that 1969 Harlem version of Lord Search My Heart I don't know what the Dayton's are doing but baby that all she needed was them two at the end who knew Saillie's Version hype her up and she took off.
Cool. I heard this recording before but I needed a visual to go with it. 🤎🤞🏽
Rowoches, thanks again! Terrific and unusual.
You're very welcome
3:14 hahaha she got ‘em straightened out in a split second!
She surely did! Lol!
What did she do?
@@whitneyhouston3112 She skipped a beat so they could get on beat.
Exactly 🙌🏾other musicians in the chat, if they had been in tempo it would've been immaculate
SHOUT, Halie!!
Yessuh!! She was in it, for sure.
I can really see why she upset those ministers back in the 30s… LOL! Those were not churchy steps. I love it! ❤❤❤
It looked pretty holy to me it’s that shape that was the problem she was shaped up brick house
@@jasonbaddboiiI hear you… but in the 1930s she was much smaller and even more agile…and a BAPTIST… so those ministers back then weren’t having all of that switching in the pulpit. Even her adopted son, Bro. John Sellers said that even the pastors that did like Mahalia made her wear robes because she was such a “mover”… known as “Snake Hips Halie”.
Do you have the “There’s Only One Bridge” album by Rev Cleophus Robinson? If so will you post it’s. I have searching for it for years.
A lot of Cleophus Robinson's stuff that I had posted over the years was removed due to Copyrights, so I really don't plan to post a lot of his stuff. The same thing with a few other artists. I've seen the THERE'S ONLY ONE BRIDGE album on eBay quite a bit over the years, and I think I may have a copy. I'll have to look. Please give me some time and I'll also look for the other song you asked me about.
@@Rowoches Thank you. That song that I asked about is on the “There’s Only One Bridge”album. I thought it was on the other album that I asked about. I’m sorry for any confusion that I may have caused. ❤️
How can the audience just sit there so stone-faced?
They were white Europeans. They didn’t understand the power that comes with black gospel singing.
