Customer Reviews

Loved it. - Reviewed on 2007-10-06

I remember listening to Mahalia Jackson growing up. I bought this particular cd for my grandmother and she listens to it several times a week. It makes her happy so it makes me happy.

Too much of a good thing. - Reviewed on 2007-05-07

Mahalia Jackson has the voice of an angelic true believer. The first volume of this collection is exquisite. Sound quality is only fair but the power of the voice and the conviction and the soaring solos makes up for it.

The second volume seems unnecessary and to have fewer cuts that I felt were really powerful.

Disappointing - Reviewed on 2006-03-22

I didn't except great sound due to the age of some of the original recordings but...the quality is often comparable to what you hear on the discounted CDs available at the quick service gas stop.

Too bad...Jackson really is the Queen of Gospel and had an incredibly powerful sound. One would never know that from hearing this.
