TV Gospel Time (c. 1962) | The Caravans The Soul Stirrers
Фильм және анимация
Sample episode featuring Shady Grove Choir, The Caravans and Paul Foster of The Soul Stirrers.
"No other program, film or single album captured the heart of the “Golden Age of Gospel” as did TV Gospel Time (1962-65). Airing Sunday mornings on NBC, this Chicago-based show merged song and God’s word, attracting a primarily African-American audience and sponsors, but introducing the genre to a broader audience." - Christiancinema.com

Young Shirley! She stood out even then.
Facts or undeniable facts?...before The Clark Sisters there was The Caravans. This is important history to learn.

I feel like I'm at church ... back in the day ... with my grandmother ... and my father playing the guitar for the choir ... and I have a flared pastel-colored dress on, Shirley Temple curls in my hair from the curlers used on the stovetop, and very slippery dress shoes that were tight as a mug. 💒😇😇😇😇

This is that old time religion that healed my polio as a child, Healed my chronic asthma attacks and delivered me from death door. To God be the Glory. If we want true deliverance we must return to the days of old when we did not play church, we lived it.

Mama Shirley my God,she sang that!!
When my mother was sick the black woman who took care of us little white kids played this and similar shows on Sundays and I still sing some of the songs myself.
Just some pure Gospel singing
Paul Foster (Soul Stirrers) leading the song "Toiling On"! "Have you ever been burdened and pressed within? Have you ever been surrounded by evil men? Don't worry, try to be strong, keep toiling on!!!

If I ever enjoyed anything about being taken to a Baptist church as a child, it was the feeling of hope I felt when listening to the different choirs sing, as this video surely reminds me of those experiences I had. We were always spiritual as a people first, that is a fact, and the slave ships that made those transatlantic voyages were full of spirituality in those bowels. Spirituality has and always will represent hope for betterment, that's why as a people, if we continue to relent to religion ahead of spirituality, doom surely awaits us...

Thank you @Reelblack for this upload. Shirley Cesear is still kicking it
Shirley has been singing and preaching HARD for over 60 years and has still maintained the same vocal qualities. I'm convinced lower placed voices with rasp usually age better - due to it being harder to hear a vocal decline. There are only a few exceptions, like Patti.

Toiling on was every soul of the black man felt the pain. And my father was One of those who worked from sun up till sundown and be so tired we help him take off his Boots. Yes it was hard but we love each other because we wanted to live like Christ Jesus and it showed up. Today I'm so happy that it never left my soul in the Lord word. He created in me a new mind ❤️ body and Soul to live like him Holy Ghost filled.
Thank God I been born again Amen Glory Hallelujah 🙌
Oh thank you for this! Your selections never cease to amaze! I was upset off the top with the ads. However grateful to feel this powerful energy of The Holy Spirit! ❤
Everything that RnB/ soul became came from this. Shirley leaves the microphone red hot after she finishes. The inflections, the in between ad libs, the timing, the notes that nobody dares to attempt, God gave us that! It helped us back then. More than we know .
I listen to this music when I am low. It helps every time.

Awesome real-deal gospel by true legends. I remember this show when I was a kid. It was rare and "special" to see black people doing "anything" on TV back then. I love leads by ALL of these ladies and ALL of the various lineups of The Caravans. I was hoping that Cassietta George would step up and take a lead also. Love her unique sound and style.
