THE ALBUM IS A GREAT SHOWCASE FOR THEIR DISTINCTIVE APPROACH TO GOSPEL The Golden Gate Quartet is one of the longest-established gospel quartets of all time, with the group still performing 90 years after its inception, maintaining continuous visibility through regular line-up changes as existing members retire. Formed in 1934 as the Golden Gate Jubilee Singers in Norfolk, Virginia, they were pioneers in the commercial dimension of the genre in the, and got a regular radio show in South Carolina in 1936, which led to a recording contract with Bluebird, with whom they stayed until joining Okeh/ Columbia. This 83-track 3-CD collection comprises a significant proportion of their A & B sides on the Bluebird, Victor, Okeh and Columbia labels during this first crucial early era of their career, with most of the releases coming out as under the name The Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet - they dropped the 'Jubilee' when they joined Okeh. This collection features their classic early line-up of William Langford and Henry Owens (tenor), Willie Johnson (baritone) and Orlandus Wilson (bass). The collection features some of their most noted recordings, including "John The Revelator", "Samson And Delilah", "Rock My Soul" and "Jonah In The Whale". It's a substantial overview of this period of their career when they established their reputation, when they enjoyed massive acceptance outside the church, and is a great showcase for their distinctive approach to gospel TRACK LISTINGDisc 1: * Gabriel Blows His Horn * Golden Gate Gospel Train * Behold The Bridegroom Cometh * Jonah * The Preacher And The Bear * Born Ten Thousand Years Ago * Massa's In The Cold, Cold Ground * Bonnet * Bedside Of A Neighbor * I've Found A Wonderful Savior * Go Where I Send Thee * Won't There Be One Happy Time * Story Of Job * Stand In The Test In Judgement * The Dipsy Doodle * Carolina In The Morning * Motherless Child * Travelin' Shoes * I Was Brave * Samson And Delilah * Pure Religion * Remember Me * Lead Me On And On * Take Your Burden To The Lord * John The Revelator * Sweet Adeline * Swanee River * Ol Man' RiverDisc 2: * My Lord Is Waiting * Rock My Soul * To The Rock * Let That Liar Alone * God Almighty Said * When The Saints Go Marching In * When They Ring The Golden Bells * I Heard Zion Moan * Noah * Lord Am I Born To Die? * What Are They Doing In Heaven Today? * Cheer The Weary Traveler * Packing Up, Getting Ready To Go * Troubles Of The World * Everything Moves By The Grace Of God * Dese Bones Gonna Rise Agin * Lis'n To De Lambs * This World Is In Bad Condition * Noah And The Ark * Precious Lord * What A Time * If I Had My Way * Way Down In Egyptland * He Said He Would Calm The Ocean * Everytime That I Feel The Spirit * I Looked Down The Line And I Wondered * You'd Better Mind * Hide Me In Thy BosomDisc 3: * I'm A Pilgrim * Our Father * The Valley Of Time * What Did Jesus Say * Darling Nellie Gray * My Walking Stick * Whoa Babe * Stormy Weather * Julius Caesar * The Devil With The Devil * Jonah In The Whale * Timber * Ol' Man Mose * Change Partners * Noah * Daniel Saw The Stone * Jezebel * Anyhow * Time's Winding Up * Blind Barnabus * The Sun Didn't Shine * Didn't It Rain * He Never Said A Mumbling Word * Stalin Wasn't Stallin' * Dip Your Fingers In The Water * Run On * Comin' In On A Wing And A Prayer
