It’s Alright

I distinctly remember when I first heard this song back in the ’80. I could so easily visualize this man sitting in a chair in his home, staring at a cherished photo, thinking of his Dad. Today the song is a bit more real for me, and I know that “It’s Alright”.

As many of you may know, every summer there are two major gospel “conventions”.  One is the Thomas A. Dorsey National Convention of Gospel Choirs and Choruses, and the other is Jame Cleveland’s Gospel Music Workshop of America (GMWA) annual session.

At each of the GMWA sessions a “Mass Choir” of attendees is assembled (some of the best gospel voices in the world) and throughout the week they learn several songs that they perform the last night.  These performances were recorded in the early years and some of the truly great gospel performances are to be found on these recordings.  This is one of the songs from The Gospel Music Workshop of America annual session held in St. Louis Missouri in 1980.
