Release Year: 1993
Album Rank for Group: #5 of 7
Here’s a blurb: Southern Classics is the album that launched the Gaither Vocal Band into the southern gospel arena to stay. It was the only southern gospel album recorded by the stellar, but short-lived, lineup of Bill Gaither, Mark Lowry, Michael English, and Terry Franklin. This lineup got their foot in the gospel music door, paving the way for Guy Penrod and David Phelps to blow the doors off. The vocal abilities and production value of this recording raised the bar for the Vocal Band and for southern gospel music as a whole.
Knock my socks off: The King Is Coming, Satisfied, I Bowed on My Knees (And Cried Holy)
Don’t skip that one: Jesus on the Mainline, There Is a River, Sweet Beulah Land
I could honestly do without: Sometimes My Feet Wanna Dance, Sign Me Up
