On February 12th, PBS will broadcast the first episode of Gospel, a new documentary series from Henry Louis Gates Jr. This week on Echoes of Indiana Avenue, we’ll celebrate the release of Gospel by sharing classic Naptown gospel music, featuring rare recordings from the quartets, choirs, and songwriters that made history in the Circle City.
Tune in for music from Al Hobbs and The Music Masters, Beatrice Brown, The Stovall Sisters, The Sacred Four, The Indianapolis Mass Choir, Wandering Travelers of Indianapolis, King James Version, Kenneth Woods Jr., and The Traveling Inner Lights. Plus, hear interviews with Indianapolis gospel artists M.L. Allen, Reggie Gammon, Reverend Dennis Freeman, Henry Hinch, Everett Greene, and more.
