More Info:
Not for nothing was Mahalia Jackson known as the Queen of Gospel. Although she received countless offers to record secular music, she turned each and everyone down, even divorcing her husband as he tried pressuring her into recording secular! Her body of work in the Gospel field is without rival, Over 30 albums and countless singles, hers is a voice that enthralled; Mahalia was the first Gospel singer to perform at Carnegie Hall and performed at President Kennedy's inaugural ball. It was once said of her 'God touched the vocal chords of this Great Woman and placed a special elixir to sing for His honor and Glory'. Hallmark.
