LMBOOOO HAHAHAHHAA OKKKK BECAUSE IF IT WAS SOME BLACK FOLKS YOU WOULDN'T HAVE HAD THAT CLAP WRONG HAHAHAHAHA

You don't know how many times I've wanted to say...in a majority black setting

[@DavidForeman58]

@@jamminondakeys lmboooooo I did it when I was in Germany in a group, the group seen a video of her saying it and the people were throwing us off and foolish me walked to the edge of the stage and said it and they got the clap right, but the group fell out laughing

[@johnmayle7830]

Amen

[@sheilahballard1039]

Such a real ambassador for God. I have always heard only good things about this lovely woman of God. Her faith and authenticity is still impacting people all over the world. Thank you so much for this treat.

[@BbVzn661]

One of my many favs of Mahalia! Let's get that hand clap right..... Love it! 100% God given talent. She graced this earth for a short time, but we have the recordings to enrich our walk with the Lord. This video had me smiling the entire time. Would have loved to have seen the full version. Mahalia radiates with the love of God when she sings. Especially the uptempo songs.

[@anthonysmith5854]

The saints still clap like that if the drummer is late

[@anthonysmith5854]

She wasnt playing about that clap! Still love her!!!!

[@stevenwilliambaylessparks3730]

It's taken awhile, but I think I have finally gotten the clap right. It's not easy keeping up with Mahalia.

[@SISTEREDNA]

GET THAT CLAP RIGHT!!! LOL.........

[@Onlyone-m6f]

I love how she leaves then come back. Most times these singers rush off the stage even when there is a move of God. Ms. Jackson was always in the spirit. My favorite gospel singer.

[@brandonwashington341]

She was a great teacher and the audience were good students after she showed them how to clap on beat they did

[@paulfisher5447]

I hope I never get tired of watching this !

[@sheilahballard1039]

Me either. A real woman of God praising God with everything she's got!

That organ tho 😬🤭 🎹🎹🎹🎹👌🎵🎶🎵🎵🎶🎵🎵🎹🎹🎹🎹🎶🥰

[@Rowoches]

Exactly! That's what got Mahalia hopping and marching like that. Lol! I love it!

[@hanscraig1850]

He lit that Wurlitzer organ up!! Most Gospel organist used Hammonds but thats a Wurlitzer!

[@JudahCub1981]

I love what Dr. Clency (the organist) did on Elijah Rock at this same concert. My older sister said it sounded like reggae music (we’re from the Caribbean, so it caught her ear)… He is a very skilled musician indeed.

Spent many Sundays at St. Andrews With Eddie Robinson on the Piano, Good days

[@gospelfanman]

You look like you're not an hour ver 16. How long ago was this?

[@DavidForeman58]

Love Eddie Robinson to pieces he has played for me many times and cried and said you sound so much like Mahalia

[@donaldcrain6661]

This is great great to see ~ thanks so much

[@jddrew1000]

Eddie Robinson who was the original pianist for the Caravans and Charles Clency, who would worked with a young Father Hayes in the 60s and 70s. Great Chicago Gospel History+

[@keepingitrealandtruthful.5081]

The late Eddie Robinson and Dr Clencey were both classically trained.

[@jddrew1000]

@@keepingitrealandtruthful.5081 Incredible!

[@DavidForeman58]

No Eddie Robinson wasn't the original pianist for the Caravans was he? I thought he'd been playing for Mahalia as a boy

[@JudahCub1981]

I thought Robert Anderson (the founder) and then Rev. James Cleveland was the Caravan’s original pianists.

[@JudahCub1981]

David Foreman I read somewhere that Mahalia first approached Eddie Robinson about working with her sometime around 1957 because she wanted to experiment with different sounds.

[@khalilcanady2012]

We got to get her ENTIRE 2 concerts !!!!!found a site where they have them. DM me about it.

[@ABCDuwachui]

Where at?

[@Rowoches]

Entire 4 concerts. She appeared there 2 days and each day were 2 concerts. 😊

Mahalia Jackson!! The World's Greatest Gospel Singer- Flat footed singing with just a piano "Edward Robinson" organ "Charles Clency" and the "voice that comes once in a 1000 years" Dr.MLKing-Jr

[@melvinvivian4526]

I remember as a child wayback in the early days my mother would play her records on our stereo on Sunday Mahalia once came to our church that was a great evening we had at the tender age of 6 years old I understood all Mahalia Jackson song her heart out that evening and I would Church that we used to go to Mount Pisgah Baptist in Chicago on 47th at that time at that time the Reverend Joseph h Wells was the overseer

[@imjustlooking888]

Thanks for uploading this. I never saw it. It’s good. I love old gospel!

[@Rowoches]

You're so welcome! I'm making a couple of the other clips I pulled from this public shortly.

She was really throwing down and cutting up!

[@mikeymystic1776]

Greatest ever in gospel,,,

[@yulbrennus8244]

SUPERBE. Magnifique énergie de Mme Mahalia JACKSON, avec le soutien sans faille de son organiste dont la ligne de basse est une puissante relance constante. Merci pour ce très beau morceau que j'avais chez moi mais auquel vous avez ajoutée le "live" des images et d'une ambiance plus forte encore. MERCI

[@imjustlooking888]

Them boys are tearing up on that piano and organ. I don't mean any harm but when I attended my Christian college, on Sundays the white students would say to each other, "Lets go to church." However, the black students like me would say "Let's go to CHURCH!" Get my drift? LOL!

[@Rowoches]

I completely understand. LOL! And yes, Eddie Robinson was making those piano keys talk and Charles Clency was making that organ holler! Sho'nuff!

[@antd8259]

Command that stage, Mahalia. Tell him to get the clap right and start it over lol

[@Rowoches]

Lol! Yessuh! Mahalia already had bad timing at times, so the off-claps really got to her.

[@Onlyone-m6f]

They was throwing her off. She was like NOT TODAY!! Get that clap right!! Lol. C'mon on band!!!

My favorite song I have ever heard is Gospel Train by Mrs Marie Knight on decca records from 1949, I believe. Have you ever heard it

[@billinindiana1]

thsnk you rowehes, this if mighty fine

[@Rowoches]

You're welcome!

[@reallife2565]

You can tell she was sick here Mahalia had a heart condition

[@Rowoches]

This was recorded after her close to 2-year break from doing strenuous traveling. Her doctors cleared her to start traveling again & in a way, this was like her major comeback trip.

[@davidholland6405]

I agree because you can hear her voice is not as strong as it was before and she gets tired a lot quicker

[@bemetrina]

She gotta shape...no surgery...and she pretty ☺️

[@keepingitrealandtruthful.5081]

She was ill I can't remember the reason, but as a result she ended up losing weight.

[@DavidForeman58]

Yes she is and I just watched again and I just laugh. Walk on walk on

[@jimmyterry2842]

Oh that’s not a b3 but he rocked it

[@lisablack8804]

Sing Ms. Mahalia Sing 🎶 🎤

[@Arron413]

Back then, there were many who was unhappy with Mahalia's dressing and how she walked on stage. They thought it was too worldly.

[@Rowoches]

Yep! Each generation deals with the same thing. I wonder what worldly things the people who were unhappy with Mahalia's attire and stage presence were doing. Lol!

[@keepingitrealandtruthful.5081]

Yes. Back in the 30s and 40s some folks didn't like people like Mahalia as they considered her music to be that of the devil. Ask Rev Thomas Dorsey.

[@Ziggy_skywalker76]

Do you still have the video of the group that came on before her they sung a couple songs then Mahalia came on stage

[@Rowoches]

The Drayton Singers....I don't have it to upload, but i do have the footage that was uploaded several years ago.

[@Ziggy_skywalker76]

Rowoches oh ok 👌🏾 😀

[@Rowoches]

If I can find the actual mp4 file I downloaded back in like 2012, I will re-upload. I'll keep u posted.

[@Ziggy_skywalker76]

Ok thanks appreciate that means a lot You have great videos that takes me back to my home church in Chicago. The greater Bethlehem Healing Temple ✊🏽🙏🏾

[@Rowoches]

I've just become a victim of wishful thinking. Lol! A few moments ago I made another one of the songs I had unlisted Public. I looked to see if I had cut the Drayton Singers' part back when I cut the other ones & unfortunately, I didn't.

[@reallife2565]

Anointed

[@johnmayle7830]

Dwayne I really love the music more than the singing especially the organ and piano playing. lool. Now don't get me wrong I still thank God 4 Mahalia (4 all she has done while living 4 God ncluding her singing how I got over, in the upper room, o when the saints/ just a closer walk (with Louis Armstrong) etc. yet I didn't understand what she was saying other than come on childdren + she was going in & out (don't know what reason). Or maybe Im not used of Mahalia of all her style of music. lol. Conversely, thank u anyway.

[@Rowoches]

You're not used to Mahalia and her style of music. This is a song that Mahalia sang multiple times during her career, so for most of us, we know the words. Also, that's the disadvantage of live recordings. You don't always get the full quality.

[@johnmayle7830]

Dwayne I was just joking when I said I not used of her music besides me giving my opinion (no offense) otoh I'm glad u r bring these old songs 4 us young folks 2 listen. Likewise keep up the good work u r doing 4 God.
