Live In WIllacoochee

 

 

 

 

In just about every hamlet, town, community, city and parish there are gospel groups and singers spreading the Good News in song. So, there should be no surprise that in the community of Willacoochee, Georgia, there is a gospel quartet group that love to sing praises to Our Lord and Savior.  They are Brothers & Sisters.

 

This group has recorded under several names, Brothers & Sisters . . . with Elder Troy Jackson . .. of Willacoochee, GA, Rev. Troy Jackson with Brothers & Sisters, and simply Brothers & Sisters.  As the names suggest this is a family group. The members are Elder Troy Jackson, Elder Evelyn Jackson Williams, Ethel Jackson Robinson, Martha Jackson Carswell, Dr. Andrew Jackson, Alice Jackson Lane, Elder Ricky Jackson, and Mary C. Jackson Hall. Look closely and you will see that there are several members are ministers.  So, expect this CD to minister to you.

There new project is Live In Willacoochee.  The recording occurred on Sunday, September 3, 2006.  It was released earlier this year.  The guest artists on this recording are saxophonist
Rev. Al & Pashion Lewis, Percy Griffin of The Swanee Quintet, and Marla.

After a resounding introduction by the emcee, Sister Blanche Goodson, the group moved into "Everyday With Jesus."
The opening to this song says “everyday with Jesus is sweeter than the day before.” The group brings this song to life with the joy in their voices.  This song is also on the group’s Christmas CD titled It's That Time Of Year.  This is followed by "One Day At A Time." Percy Griffin joins the group on this song.  The crowded wanted him to sing.  And, he did not disappoint them on this song.

The next song is "Everything Will Be Alright."  The Sisters provide exceptional background vocals on this song. This is definitely the drive song of the project.  The performance slows down with "He's Alright With Me." 

 

"Up Pops The Devil" is next.  The song begins with a five minute Sermonette.  Thereafter, the group rejoices with the audience in singing this song, which was certainly written with audience participation in mind.


On "I Can Do All Things" the Sisters share lead duties.  The recording closes with "Oh Lord, Have Mercy." The song served as the Altar Call and Benediction for the close of services.

 

As reflected above, there are actually only seven songs on this project.  However, there is over fifty minutes of music on this project.  "Up Pops The Devil" is divided into three tracks, "One Day at A Time" is divided into two tracks, and "Everything Will Be Alright" is divided into two tracks. 

 

This project was produced by Eric Sharper of Dream Reality Production.  Eric is well know for being a producer that allows the artist to be themselves. In other words, he does not try to make them sound like someone else.  He certainly applied that principle to this recording. 

  
Finally, there is a DVD in the works for this recording.  The video will add to the Live recording experience.

 
Overall this is a very good project by
Brothers & Sisters.  You should be able to find this CD in your local record store.  We give Brothers & SistersLive In Willacoochee an 8 out of 10.  Click HERE to purchase the CD online.  Click on the title to hear "Up Pops The Devil.
