      @@curtisdrummerellerbe9544 I fully agree with you. Dr Mattie Moss Clark was and always will be a legend in our industry. As for her daughters they truly take their singing talents from their mom and the Moss family. As they say it's in the genes

    That generation was blessed with these worship when they sing, you feel God , glory, holy Spirit, power. But today mostly good words people live in sin and call themselves children of God leading songs worship service just like the Pharisees. Today people talk, preach , sing about God but don't really know God.

    Bill Moss & The Celestials, use to see them in the 70's in Oakland. Most times they would share the platform with The Violinares, Mr Moss told me he & Mr Blair were good friends. Long live traditional gospel music

    Nice video. I think my favorite compositions by this group were I've Got A Satisfied Mind and I Don't Want To Do Wrong.
    I was amazed at how they made such a natural transition into the 70's and the message stayed as spiritual as ever while still addressing the social mores of the day for one too many blacks.
