4. Your Mother Loves Her ChildrenSR5033: Beams of Heaven: Gospel Hymns & Songs -- Reverend Scottie Williams, Sr.
Order by Mail
He sings with strong conviction. He has a rich, deep voice, and he sings the psalms clearly and articulately. When he emphasizes his message or when the spirit moves him, he moans with despair, sometimes with hope, and always with great musical effect.
On this recording, Elsa was truly inspired by the reverend's singing, and she played with great energy which further spurred on the reverend. Richard played the Hammond during the recording, and, afterwards, he added bass on all tracks without a second take. His musical genius is knowing what to play to enhance and improve the vocalist's phrasing, just like he's done throughout his career for Inez Andrews, his mom, and Aretha Franklin. Kenard Pulliam is an excellent drummer who kept the band in sync.
