For sixty-three years, the name of James Blackwood has been synonymous with Southern gospel music. Indeed, it is perhaps fair to say that James may be the most noted gospel singer who has ever lived.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
James Blackwood is one of those people who served as a role model by the way he treated others, conducted himself professionally, and pioneered an artform and ministry. Dr. Allen Dennis is to be commended for collecting this tribute. The thing that stood out for me was the character factor, i.e., that several contributors mentioned how Blackwood was a polished professional who took his work seriously, yet he was approachable and truly interested in other people. Like several others said in their comments in the book, James Blackwood was one of my heroes when I was growing up. Professor Dennis edited this book in such a way that the comments pertaining to Blackwood relate to much more than just him. They demonstrate how others can leave a similar legacy in their own arenas. It's a matter of dedication and discipline. Repeatedly, Blackwood is described as a Christian gentleman and a genuine professional at his craft. I suggest the same could be said for Allen Dennis who left this work as part of his legacy.
