Gospel music, which has its roots in blues and jazz, was born at the beginning of the 20th century. As a result, many an American worship service became more exciting than the classically conservative kind often cultivated in the churches of the "whites". The music is rousing and fills every church with energy and faith. We at Bear Family Records turn your living room into a place of worship with our gospel CDs and vinyl records. In this category you will find gospel artists like Evelyn Freeman, the Golden Gate Quartet, the Staple Singers and many more on vinyl records or CDs.
