A unique tribute to often overlooked women who have left an indelible mark on Gospel Musicpowerful talents who overcame racism and sexism to define the genre, establish its sound, and set the standard for good sangin for generations.Nothing in the world soothes the soul better than Gospel music. From the foot-stomping, hand-clapping melodies of yesterday to the head-bobbing, bass-thumping hits of today, Gospel music ignites the spirit and delivers the inspiration that takes us from the rough side of the mountain to the peak of Gods love and grace. That feeling of joy, peace, love, and contentment is amplified when its ringing through the voice of a sister who can SANG, Cheryl Wills reminds us. The remedy for a tough day at work can be alleviated with Mary Marys uplifting jam Shackles, the answer to your hearts desires can be found in the harmonies of The Clark Sisters Name It, Claim It, and if you need a reminder of Gods love, there is nothing more timeless that Aretha Franklins stirring rendition of Amazing Grace.Some talented performers, like Sister Rosetta Tharpe have faded from history, while singers like Yolanda Adams are at the top of her game. During the twentieth century, Willie Mae Ford spent most of her life encouraging and uplifting Christians both in church and on stage and composed more than 100 Gospel songs, yet it was men like her co-writer, Thomas A. Dorsey, who received the accolades and fame. Many women in the Gospel music industry go unnoticed, unpaid, and under-appreciated for their contributions, yet it is these women who are often the bedrock for songwriting, arranging, directing, and developing singers.Cheryl Wills, the granddaughter of a Gospel singer, at last shines a spotlight on these spectacular women of song.
