Movie Reviews of Gospel
Movie Review: Really 25 stars...5 stars for each group!
Summary: 5 Stars
I grew up watching this video and to my surprise I found it at Blockbuster. I could not believe it. I have been watching it for the last two months regularly. This concert was blessed by God almighty himself! I imagine that as they performed he was in Heaven throwing down, because you know God can outdance any of us. My favs:The Mighty Clouds of Joy-Walk Around Heaven (I forgot it was them and thought it was the Temptations for a second.)
Shirley Caesar-No Charge (No one can tell a story quite like Shirley.
Walter Hawkins & Family-EVERYTHING!!! Their musicians were amazing.
The Clark Sisters-EVERYTHING!!!! It should be illegal to sing like that!
James Cleveland-EVERY SINGLE SONG!!!
Excellent must have for any true lover of gospel. I know a lot of people don't enjoy older gospel as much as the new stuff, but I can bet any amount of money that the stuff people are listening to now can be traced back to these very artists. I have heard so many remakes of these songs form the newer artists. Much respect.
Movie Review: Transcendent Soul
Summary: 5 Stars
Any Music lover will love this DVD it captures a unique musical moment in time, now gone. Shirley Ceasar is one of the greatest singers to live. Her performance is just overwelming. She is captivating and charismatic and what a voice. Her nailing of her band member to the mike stand as if it was a cross is just classic. The whole DVD can be watched over and over. It has a soul, R & B, 60's & 70's flavor to the music even though it was recorded in '82 at one of the most beautiful venues in America, the Paramont Theater in Oakland. The audience is also another performer on this DVD. Their reactions and participation bring the show to another level. All the performances from beginning to end are great. Rev. James Clevland, Walter Hawkins, The Mighty Clouds of Joy, and particularly the Clark Sisters are just awesome. All legendary performers in an unforgettable performance. The "Gospel" DVD is one of my favorites and very worth getting.Movie Review: A great show
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great 1980 old school gospel show, with some legendary gospel artists like Shirley Caesar, the late James Cleveland, the Clark sisters, the Mighty Clouds of Joy and the late Walter Hawkins and the Hawkins family performing live in concert while they were all still relative young and in their prime. This is a Spirtit-filled high-energy event that is a must own for any fan of old fashioned gospel music. One high point of this concert is the Mighty Clouds of Joy featuring the late Paul Beasley on lead vocals performing the gospel standard "Walk around Heaven". This dvd is well worth the money.Movie Review: Enhanced with extra features including singer profiles

Summary: 5 Stars
This filmed performance of a Gospel Concert in Oakland, Calif. in 1982 is an absolutely flawless document of what this music is all about. No narration or explanation is necessary. The Mighty Clouds of Joy live up to their name with the classic "Walk Around Heaven All Day" and Walter Hawkins amazes with an accapella singalong with the audience on "What A Friend We Have in Jesus." As for James Cleveland, the Clark Sisters, and Shirley Ceasar (who I saw perform once in Charleston, SC), what more needs to be said? Just get it and put it on during an otherwise sad day.
