I have a lifetime love for Southern Gospel music. I found David Murray's book to be well written, informative and easy to use. The encyclopedia format makes it especially nice for finding a quick fact about a group or individual. Ruth Lee

Great source of information. Jan 21, 2006
By David Stuart
This book is a must for any fan of Southern gospel music. It is very easy to read and informative as well as interesting! If you ever wanted to know how some of these groups got started or some of the key personnel, lots of this information is in this book. I highly reccommend this book.

This is a Great "First Generation" Encyclopedia of Southern Gospel Music. Dec 28, 2009
By Gary Covington
"Southern Rocker"
This is the first compilation of Southern Gospel Music presented in an encyclopedia style. It is in alphabetical order by the artist. It contains detailed biographical information on the quartets, singers, and groups that shaped Southern Gospel Music. One bit of trivia that comes to mind, is that J.D.Sumner holds the Guiness World Book of Records for having the lowest bass voice note ever recorded. I congratulate David Bruce Murray for taking on this project, and putting together this first ever Encyclopedia of Southern Gospel Music. This is an excellent 1st Edition.
If the author does a 2nd Edition of this book, I wish he would expand his scope of Southern Gospel Music Musicians. I wish he would include more Southern Gospel Bluegrass bands & artists, like Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver & others, and some contemporary Southern Christian Rock Bands like Third Day from Atlanta, & Jo Jo Billingsly, the former backup singer for Lynyrd Skynyrd, who now is an ordained Minister who sings & records Southern Gospel Music. Also, I wish he would condider including The Blind Boys of Alabama, and Mahalia Jackson. He does include the Issaas (Gospel Bluegrass) in this 1st Edition & Thomas Dorsey (The Atlanta Bluesman who converted to Gospel Music.) Also, it includes the magazine "The Singing News", which is devoted to "Classic Southern Gospel Music". Overall, this is a great reference book for Southern Gospel fans. It does contain all the "classic", "mainstream" Southern Gospel Groups & Artists. Overall, it is a GREAT 1st Generation Encyclopedia of Southern Gospel Music. If you're a Southern Gospel Music fan, you'll love this book.
Thanks, and May God Bless!!!
