The Joy of good Gospel music.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I have just completed the reading of "Homecoming" by Bill Gaither. My heart was truly blessed as I read about the history of some of my favorite Southern Gospel singers. I have been a Southern Gospel lover for many years and sometimes I take for granted all the work that goes into this type of entertainment. Reading about the early history and background of many of these singers gave me a deep respect and admiration for the sacrifice that many made in years past. We live in a day when there is all types of music for every type of person. So much of todays music is "shallow" with no depth. But, when one listens or reads the words to some of the songs in the book "Homecoming", you can see the depth and reality of life. As a Christian, these songs give me hope and security. Many of these singers have gone through the laboratory of life, which sometimes deals hard times. But, through it all, God's peace and comfort has substained and given grace to these Southern Gospel Artist. It is a real joy to read books of this quality. May they continue to be read by many, many people. To God be the Glory, for great things He has done!
Bill Gaither is a wealth of knowledge.

This book is a must for anyone who is interested in the history of Southern Gospel Music. I go to this book often for information about the different singers and writers. The photography is wonderful as well. This book is my favorite reference book for Southern Gospel Music. I highly recommend it to you as well.
