Rev. Charles Nicks Jr & O Give Thanks.avi

[@deleisadover152]

Truly a blessing to the music world

[@terrimontgomery4260]

Real Gospel music. I learned to play many sings from this album including Called on the Lord and got an Answer! It’s December ‘24 and it is still relevant! Praise Almighty God!

[@christiansgrandma6812]

This brings me back when our choir used to march around for collection singing this hymn. My aunt used to be the soprano. I grew up loving attending service. I miss the marching into service.

[@Bnizzofashizzo]

In terms of traditional organ playing , Charles is king.

[@Bnizzofashizzo]

You just can’t find this stuff anywhere. This organ intro , then the clapping and that tambourine... this is what i grew up with

[@PrinceLolow]

So true! Today's musician plays to loud with no melody.

[@grizzlemc1662]

My God My God My God!!!!

[@Bnizzofashizzo]

[@PrinceLolow]

Truly missing my beloved Pastor! He was a gifted man of GOD and loved by many.

[@pocketdrummer84]

Loman Ginyard I'm from New Orleans and had no idea how many preachers and Musicians were Detroit. Pastor Nicks is one person I wish I could've meet him. He passed when I was 3 but I love his playing. He's definitely missed!

[@PrinceLolow]

Yes, Detroit had a wide range of Preachers and Musicians! We're really the GOSPEL Capital. @@pocketdrummer84

[@Bnizzofashizzo]

Mannnnnn I keep playing this intro. It’s amazing

[@adante233]

Nothing Like that walking base lines, then watching the Saints slow walk it up the aisle.

I can almost remember the evening service this was recorded at. Introduced by the famous radio voice of Elmer, the late local Detroit, MI Chef, this song became a hit and was indeed emblematic of the annual "O Give Thanks" concerts at Ford Auditorium. I am blessed to have been able to witness this anointed worship, preaching and praise since joining St. James MBC in 1979.

[@grizzlemc1662]

i wonder if the ppl still praise the LORD like this nowadays!!!!!!!! HEY GLORY BE TO GOD AND IM JUST 37 SOMEODD YEARS OLD!!!

[@earleansmith8608]
