Goodies: Mattie Moss-Clark and COGIC Folk

Classic stuff…

The scene:  Dr. Mattie Moss-Clark is ad libbing to “Center Of My Joy,” trading lines with Bishop Richard White aka ”Mr. Clean.”  Then, when she’s good and tired, Daryl Coley and Richard Smallwood take turns demolishing it before Karen Clark-Sheard tries her hand at it.  And for good measure, Dorinda Clark-Cole clobbers the song before handing the mic to Bettye Nelson to thrash it good and plenty (note: she’s wearing red, suffers from chronic asthma and has only one functioning lung)!  And FINALLY, they get the mic to Twinkie Clark so she can kill it one good time on the vocals before her solo on the organ, which she’s been playing ALL THAT TIME!!! :shock:

A bit long, and the sound is rather shabby, but it’s 10 minutes well spent.
