Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964

Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964 (2003) more music like this

by Sam Cooke

Some 46 years after his first pop hit, and 39 years after his death, comes only the second attempt at a comprehensive Sam Cooke collection. Portrait of a Legend 1951-1964 eclipses RCA's early-'80s The Man and His Music, going it better in running time but losing some important recordings -- "That's Heaven to Me" and "Soothe Me," arguably one of ...

You'll Never Walk Alone

You'll Never Walk Alone (1971) more music like this

by Elvis Presley

Another budget album, this one collects various gospel items from sundry sources ("Let Us Pray" was the closer to what may be Elvis's most outrageous piece of celluloid, 1969's Change of Habit) and orbiting them around the four tracks from 1957's Peace in the Valley EP (no longer a part of Elvis's Christmas Album, which had been deleted and then ...

Hero

Hero (2005) more music like this

by Kirk Franklin

Kirk Franklin's seventh album, Hero, is special in more ways than one. The disc is his second as the sole titular artist -- no Family, God's Property, or budding protégé to introduce to the world -- and his first-ever, all-out studio album, a prospect that gives him more leverage to try new things and push the envelope in ways that doing a live ...

The Nu Nation Project

The Nu Nation Project (1998) more music like this

by Kirk Franklin

Kirk Franklin designed The Nu Nation Project as a revitalization of contemporary gospel, a way to bring it to an audience accustomed to the slick, funky innovations of hip-hop and rap. It's an ambitious project, and one that's not too far removed from his earlier records, simply because it finds him adding R&B production techniques and the ...

We'll Never Turn Back

We'll Never Turn Back (2007) more music like this

by Mavis Staples

When Mavis Staples issued Have a Little Faith in 2004 on the Alligator label, there was no doubt she was back. While the recording was subdued in places, it also showcased her ability to get so far down inside a song that it had to bubble up and be completely reinvented by her voice. It wasn't just a soul and contemporary gospel recording; it also ...

God's Property

God's Property (1997) more music like this

by Kirk Franklin

The success of God's Property is due to Kirk Franklin's skill as a talent scout and as a producer. Like Franklin's other records, God's Property is contemporary gospel music that isn't bland or processed; it still has soul and feeling. Not only is the music strong, but so are the songs, making God's Property one of the most refreshing contemporary ...

by Kirk Franklin

This project is as close as it gets to having a true, bona fide masterpiece. The artistic genius of Kirk Franklin weaves through each of the 17 songs included on this gem. The title of this project, The Rebirth of Kirk Franklin, says it all. Musically speaking, he has been born again. The project effectively mixes live tracks recorded in Houston, ...

by Clark Sisters

Contemporary gospel's recorded music event of 2007 was staged by none other than the Clark Sisters, one of the most celebrated female vocal groups in the history of the genre. Since chief songwriter Twinkie Clark left the group to pursue a solo career in 1991, the sisters had a hard time regaining the footing they had during their prime, and ...

At San Quentin (1969) more music like this

by Johnny Cash

To put the performance on At San Quentin in a bit of perspective: Johnny Cash's key partner in the Tennessee Two, guitarist Luther Perkins, died in August 1968, just seven months before this set was recorded in February 1969. In addition to that, Cash was nearing the peak of his popularity -- his 1968 live album, At Folsom Prison, was a smash ...

Down from the Mountain: O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2001) more music like this

Recorded at Nashville's historic Ryman Theater as a sort of a musical wrap party for the Coen Brothers' 2000 film O Brother Where Art Thou, this album offers live versions of several of the traditional American folk songs featured in the film, with a few additions along the same vein. Sounding almost like an all-traditional country episode of "A ...

Lady Soul (1968) more music like this

by Aretha Franklin

Appearing after a blockbuster debut and a sophomore set that was rather disappointing (in comparison), 1968's Lady Soul proved Aretha Franklin, the pop sensation, was no fluke. Her performances were more impassioned than on her debut, and the material just as strong, an inspired blend of covers and originals from the best songwriters in soul and ...

How Great Thou Art (1967) more music like this

by Elvis Presley

How Great Thou Art, Elvis' second gospel album, had very different conceptions of gospel music on its two sides. The first side, including the title track and "In the Garden," was very high church , with hymnal readings and quietly burbling organ accompaniment. The second side was a far more exciting proposition, with an alternately rocking or ...

Elvis: Ultimate Gospel [Bonus Track] (2004) more music like this

by Elvis Presley

Though RCA released only three LPs and an EP of dedicated gospel material during the lifetime of Elvis Presley, it's likely that he sang more gospel than any other type of music. Late at night, after a session or a show, Elvis would seek out and keep awake anyone who could carry a tune, in order to pore over the nuggets of gospel music he had ...

As a very successful and celebrated songwriter, Beth Nielsen Chapman has never chosen an easy road to that bounty. In fact, she's consistently managed to avoid trite sentimentality in her work.

On his second gospel album, Rise and Shine, Randy Travis professes his faith within a traditional/contemporary Nashville setting. As steel guitars keen and fiddles whine, he delivers the message clearly, in his familiar unforced, relaxed style. Aside from "Everywhere We Go," a rousing call to resist secular efforts to "take your Commandments off ...
