He was a real nice guy too! He took good care of us when we came to LA to sing for Keith Pringle's choir anniversary. He invited us to his home two days in a row and lent us one of his cars to drive. Don't care what they say the man was alright to everyday people like we were.

whatever Rev Cleveland was or died from, doesnt erase the fact that he was the KING OF GOSPEL. There will never be anyone close to him in the arena of gospel. All these meaningless songs they are coming up with today is laughable. Everyone is concerned with popularity and having a certain beat instead trying to minister and save souls. Rev Cleveland spent many countless years birthing songs that will minister until the end of time.

I'm grateful for videos like this, because it captured him as the iconic and true Christian he was, while having a good 'ol time in the lord. It's sad that people become better known and associated with the nasty scandals others bought upon his labored name. Instead of the many works they did while on this earth.. Rest on Father..

The churches of today don't have time to help the people seek the lord and receive the holy ghost they are to focus on the people pocket books and wallets, rather than to see people to have salvation and a chance to gain eternal life. It's so sad that the leaders and saints of today churches are going to lose out on their soul resting in a place of glory. It is so sad that the most of the music that is being sang it don't deliver you it kills you spiritually because, it more about getting a name and money and truly not having a meaning to minster to someone soul;

And you know reverend, during some of the songs he would talk about how God brought him through. Then the praise got high, and we started to do a praisebreak.

703:7:27.. One word.. ICONIC.. What a rare gem it is to see the Late Rev. James Clevelad shout and glide across the stage like he did.. I'm grateful for videos like this, because it captured him as the iconic and true Christian he was, while having a good 'ol time in the lord. It's sad that people become better known and associated with the nasty scandals others bought upon his labored name. Instead of the many works they did while on this earth.. Rest on Father.. Cuz church ain't even started over in glory land..

This concert was recorded live on June 4, 1990 at cornerstone institutional Baptist Church. Off of Slauson and Western Boulevard in Los Angeles, California. My pastor the late great Reverend Eugene o. Bryant was the youth pastor for Reverend James Cleveland.
Wonderful video,an extra Praise The Lord! Luv It! I never heard of James Cleveland dancing. It sounded like they were having some serious church.
“I get a blessing everyday”
SMH. LAW'D THIS VIDEO. GO ON JAMES. THERE ARE NO WORDS ON EARTH THAT COULD EVER DESCRIBE THE LOVE I HAVE IN MY SOUL FOR THIS MAN, HIS WORK, HIS MUSIC AND ALL THE GOOD HE DID IN LIFE. HE WAS A TRUE BLESSING TO MILLIONS WITH HIS POWERFUL MUSIC THAT ALWAYS LED YOU TO CHRIST. THERE WAS NO DOUBT ABOUT WHO HE WAS SINGING ABOUT WITH HIS LYRICS WHICH IS WHY I LOVE HOW GOD USED HIM. WE SHOULD ALWAYS LOVE ON HIS MEMORY AND NEVER BE MOVED BY THOSE WHO WERE NOT EVEN AROUND WHO TRY AND BRING HIM DOWN. HE WAS GOD'S ANOINTED!
James had an old school step @ 7:03!
Reminds me of being a little girl @Zion Apostolic Faith. As an adult who has been blessed to have my own personal relationship with God, it takes on a whole new meaning. Thank you for posting
Praise Him, James!!
wow! he did that!!!! yes he did. come on lets have some Church, looking at this at work you will get so caught up in the spirit
What he did was praise God in the Spirit and lead the church and it's choirs into some of the greatest moments in their history. He's up there dancing while the least are down here condemning and covering up.
YES GOD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thatsza True Praise, You dont gotta hav music for a praise

The churches of today don't have time to help the people seek the lord and receive the holy ghost they are to focus on the people pocket books and wallets, rather than to see people to have salvation and a chance to gain eternal life. It's so sad that the leaders and saints of today churches are going to lose out on their soul resting in a place of glory. It is so sad that the most of the music that is being sang it don't deliver you it kills you spiritually because, it more about getting a name and money and truly not having a meaning to minster to someone soul;

well we were the gospel messengers, and the live recording was held on June 4, 1990 at cornerstone institutional Baptist Church. And at that time Nathalie Harris was founding manager of the Los Angeles Gospel messengers. And two years before her son Michael Harris had passed away. A year before Michael had passed away we had another live recording at cornerstone and Michael had sang make us one now mother Harris is retired because she retired in 2004, and had moved to Texas.

I shot and edited this video,just 2 of us and with no timecode, all of the raw footage was lost by Savoy in New York, consequently what was released was the version I cut for Rev. Cleveland the day after the recording, which is why the last song in the video does not start in the beginning of the song.
Apostolic Church of God ("ACOG") has not released an album since 1989. I am talking about when we have special guests such as Yolanda Adams, Kirk Franklin, Mary Mary and CeCe Winans... They have never charged for any of our concerts as you should NEVER have to pay to enter His house... Be Blessed!

that time, reverend had his church on Slauson and western. Cornerstone institutional Baptist! And we as the messenger sang there. This was a live recording from June 4, 1990 at the cornerstone institutional Baptist Church. and at that time, David Swinney had previously sang lifting for me, and then reverend had went up to direct it. And you know reverend, during some of the songs he would talk about how God brought him through. Then the praise got high, and we started to do a praisebreak.
I like the part when he said now messengers! Why don’t you grab a partner, and just knock off a couple of steps for the Lord because he’s been good.
yeah James can praise him. Yeah
The church is now located at 4624 W Washington Blvd, in Los Angeles. I went there a few months ago. It's a small store-front church now and there were about 10 people there for Sunday morning service. There is a marker in the front of the building that says it was founded by Rev. Cleveland.
