Description by OLDIES.com:

Born in New Orleans, the home of blues and Dixieland music, Mahalia Jackson heard only sacred music at home. Further inspired by the music of Bessie Smith and Ma Rainey, Jackson was to become the greatest gospel singer ever. These two albums, originally released by Columbia in the early 1960s, feature Jackson backed by the Falls-Webb ensemble (on "Come On Children...") and the orchestra and chorus of Johnny Williams (on "Great Songs..."). In 1962, Mahalia Jackson was awarded a Grammy in the Sacred/Inspirational/Religious category for the "Great Songs Of Love And Faith" album.

The grestest Singer ever!!!!! Music Lover: from Pauls Valley, OK US -- June, 2, 2004

I have heard these songs many times. Mahalia makes you think that God is with you all the time. She can sing like no other singer in the world. Even though she is no longer with us, her voice continues to live on records. She had a voice that delivers the true meaning of the words to your heart. I can truly say that this is one of Mahalia's greatest albums. If you purchase this product, you won't be disappointed and will cherish it forever!!!! Mahalia, you are the greatest!!!!!


Wonderful Music Lover: from Baltimore, MD US -- May, 24, 2004

I'm so glad to finally see new releases on CD. Yes, some of these titles (from the COME ON CHILDREN, LET'S SING album) have been released already, but it's great to have new ones on disc.

I have purchased this CD, and it is absolutely wonderful- nice sound quality and no fade outs.

My absolute favorites are "Because His Name Is Jesus," "Brown Baby," "The Green Leaves of Summer," and "The House I Live In."

Great buy! Thanx again Oldies!
