The first-ever compilation of the most important
gospel crossover recordings by the Clark Sisters
and their leader Elbernita 'Twinkie' Clark. The
Clark Sisters were at their very best on this
material, and it made them stars of the gospel
world.
The CD focuses on their recordings for
Westbound subsidiary Sound Of Gospel made
between 1976 and 1981. These tracks saw the
group at the forefront of modernising gospel
music, something that wasn't without
controversy. This culminated in the surprise
success of 'You Brought The Sunshine' - an early
80s classic on the New York club scene.
In recent years collectors have realised that the
Sisters four Sound Of Gospel albums are full of
soul-influenced cuts, from the four-to- the-floor
disco exuberance of 'Everything's Gonna Be
Alright' to the impassioned 'I'm Going To Have
Just What I Want' with its nods to Aretha
Franklin.
Twinkie was so full of music that she released
two further albums under her own name. The
second, "Ye Shall Receive Power", now sells for
hundreds of pounds, based on demand for the
track 'Awake O Zion'. We have included four of
the best tracks from these albums.
