Edwin Hawkins died Monday, January 15th, 2018 at the age of 74. Most everyone knows “O Happy Day”, but not many people know the depths of the wonderful music Edwin Hawkins (and his brother Walter) brought to the world. Some of my favorite gospel songs, notably “Love Paid The Price” and “To My Father’s House”, are gifts from Edwin Hawkins. Here’s a small collection of Edwin Hawkin’s music. Rest in Peace.
- Early In The Morning Edwin Hawkins Singers 3:11
- To My Father's House Edwin Hawkins Singers 5:41
- Love Paid The Price Edwin Hawkins 8:02
- O Happy Day Edwin Hawkins 5:11
Yes, may he Rest In Peace. We are blessed with his music forever.
