## Description

A 4-CD Set housed in a deluxe gatefold LP sleeve with large format 16 page booklet.From the team that brought you the monumental 3CD sets Fire In My Bones : Raw + Rare + Otherworldly African-American Gospel, 1944-2007 and This May Be My Last Time Singing: Raw African-American Gospel On 45 RPM, 1957-1982.In this first licensed reissue of Nashboro material in decades, this highly influential music, a vital part of the fabric of American music, can finally be heard. Begun by Ernie Young in Nashville, TN, at the height of gospel s golden age, Nashboro was arguably the greatest, most prolific and longest-living gospel record label. Initial recordings were made on site, overseen by Young himself. Those early Nashboro sides have all the excitement, energy and drive of far better-known indies from the 1950s such as Chess and Sun (indeed, Nashboro was parent to the infamous, blues-busting Excello label).This exceptional set, with detailed liner notes by Opal Louis Nations, mirrors the evolution of the music itself from hard-shouting quartets and riveting solo artists through to organ-driven groups and heavy gospel soul. Among the many highlights are tracks by The Consolers, Swanee Quintet, The Angelic Gospel Singers, The Radio Four, The Supreme Angels, Pilgrim Jubilees, Fairfield Four, Edna Gallmon Cooke, Hightower Brothers, Brooklyn All Stars, Bro. Joe May, Gospel Keynotes, The CBS Trumpeteers, Holmes Sisters, Five Singing Stars, The Jewel Gospel Trio and The Gospel Harmonettes.

    "RACE RECORDS--ALL POPULAR LABELS AND WE HAVE FIVE SOUND-PROOF BOOTHS FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE"  ERNIE YOUNG'S AD
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2013*

"...the first thing Ernie Young would do was to weigh the morning mail, not open it.  He wanted to estimate what the daily take was going to be and he had it down to a formula."  Cal Young, Ernie's nephew.I try not to review something that's already been done, but this set is so good hopefully more people will find out about it.  In a nutshell--if you like post-war gospel--the real deal kind--get this collection now.  This set can easily sit next to the "Fire In  My Bones..." collection,  the "This May Be My Last..." set,  the "Nuggets of the Golden Age of Gospel 1945-1958" set, the "Spreading the Word-Early Gospel Recordings" collection, or the two "Guitar Evangelists" sets.  This is a good overview of gospel music on the Nashboro label, but it by no means includes all the great performers who recorded for the label.  Hopefully there will  be a second volume that will include more great sides from the label.The packaging resembles a vinyl album cover--it's about 12"X12".  The discs slip into slits inside the gate-fold cover--I put the discs into double jewel cases for protection.  There's a slot for the (slightly smaller) booklet, which has several period photos, a list of songs/performers, and recording dates for each disc, ads, album covers, and notes by Opal Nations.The sound  and the fervor of the true meaning of  gospel music runs all through this collection.  Listen to "Get Your Soul Right", by the Fireside Gospel Singers, from 1953.  Or "It's Hard To Get Along", by the Swanee Quartet, from 1955.  Whoa.  Most, if not all these performers will be new to most people, which is a good thing.  The notes by Opal Nations (who also wrote informative notes for  many of the Acrobat label's r&b/blues/gospel collections, which are great sets) are succinct, factual, and informative--the cherry on top of this great set of music.  Each disc covers a specific period--Disc One: 1951-1957, Disc Two: 1958-1963, Disc Three: 1964-1967, Disc Four: 1968-1983.The sound of real gospel music from Ernie Young's Nashboro label can't be beaten.  His "500" series (which also issued blues recordings not on Excello) was filled with great gospel groups--some who stayed with Young for many  years.  A religious man himself (even though he especially liked easy listening music of the day), he knew the real thing when he heard it--and so will you.  This is  real testifyin', deep-rooted, spiritual music.  Check it out and you'll hear what I mean.

    TURNING BACK THE HANDS OF TIME
  

*by P***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2014*

This set of CDs were a trip thru my past. People and places, churches. I only wish that they were DVDs, but of course that technology wasn't available back then. I can only go back to 1955 when I first heard the music on Nashville's WSOK and Morgan Babb. Later changed the call letters to WVOL-am. Mostly the music stayed the same until "Contemporary" gospel music attempted to dilute the pure and honestly sincere "Old Style"  Saint Mark's Baptist Church in Nashville was the first time I had attended a "Program" and there I saw and heard teenager Paul Beasley's sweet high sound.  First saw Willie Neal Johnson and his Gospel Keynotes and Slim Hunt and Supreme Angels. Those were some exciting and thrilling days for me. This compilation brought it all back in Living Color as it were. I would thank Shannon Williams for his efforts to see that the music was recorded with all the clarity and sound available at that time.

    Great gospel
  

*by G***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2019*

Nice selection of classic gospel from one of the great labels. Any gospel collection produced by Tompkins Square is a winner. This one too.
