On My Top 10 of the Year
Submitted on: 2005-10-02 |

| Not quite sure what the reviewer just before me was thinking....This album is by far the BEST collection I have heard of Marion's work. I have all of the collections that Anthony Heilbut has compiled and they are all amazing, but he has outdone himself with this one. As he stated in the liner notes, THIS collection showcases Marion in her element...in the church...singing and yes, shouting, to her heart's content...and to ours as well. They don't make singers like this anymore...and this album makes me wish that they did. I cannot pick a favorite, but I have to make special mention of the album's opening cut, "How I Got Over", which was recorded live with James Cleveland accompanying her on the piano. Marion IS at her best here...and you would think that she recorded this during her hay-day with the Wards...but it was only 20 some odd years ago! I also must say that the inclusion of the old Watts hymns was brilliant...This is the history of gospel that must be preserved as we get bogged down in more and more drum programming, sequenced vocals and nothing lyrics. Thank you Marion for the reminder... |

| Ms Wiiliams is a very moving artist, and this recording starts out wiht too much shooouting for my taste. Singing is supereb; selections not up to earlier recordings I hve of her performances. |

Unforgettable Singer
Submitted on: 2005-08-15 |
|
| The record of the year? It's got to be "Remember Me," a collection of 24 songs by the late gospel singer Marion Williams. The MacArthur Foundation gave her a genius award, the Kennedy Center honored her--it's time for the record industry to do the same. She was, as one of her songs says, born to sing the gospel, but with her rich, emotional voice, she is not confined by the genre. She sings of life, death, God, pain, and passion. She is rapturous, vulnerable, and comforting. No wonder critics have called her the greatest singer ever. |

Never Better
Submitted on: 2005-08-04 |

| Marion has never sounded better than she does on this new CD. If you heard cuts from it on All Things Considered last night (August 3) you got a small sample of the power and range of her voice. Even if you know nothing about Gospel, buy this. It will open up a whole new musical universe for you. |
