Here though Jasmine focus on the groups early recordings when they were strictly a religious group steeped in American Gospel traditions. Although the line-up was unusual for the time, male and female groups were not common in Gospel music then, they undoubtedly appealed to the huge number of migrants who had moved to Chicago from the rural south. 'Pops', as he was known, had a guitar style highly reminiscent of the Mississippi blues singers of the 1920s and 30s and the vocal arrangements that he gave the girls were also similar to those of the earliest jubilee style gospel groups of the pre-war years like the Golden Gate Quartet and The Charioteers. Here then are their famous early recordings as released by Vee Jay Records who continued to reissue their repertoire on LP for many years. 650 0 $a Gospel music. 941 $a 1 945 $a cda 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010030318.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0BD0E662673311EEBF3E118F48ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b UIBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
