Richard Smallwood & Vision is my favorite part of gospel music industry
Amazing history. Richard Smallwood is such a GIFT.
This is amazing how some of the most talented voices in Gospel and Soul music came from Howard University. I did not know Angela Winbush was one of the original Richard Smallwood Singers. And we all know what a powerhouse vocalist she is!!!! I was so amazed to see a photo of none other than Felicia Coleman, who did Sing, Mahalia, Sing. Anybody who recognizes her...........one of the most dynamic voices to ever come out of Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church, in Chicago. And if you don't believe me, listen to some of Fellowship's recordings, and listen for yourself! The talent that surrounded Richard........my goodness!!!!!!! Thank you for sharing this video!
I love the Richard Smallwood singers. When I am feeling low the singers bless me to feel better. I’ve seen them in person. Love and God Bless.
Wow!!!! This was awesome. Living in Maryland all my life and having seen the Richard Smallwood Singer as well as Vision on many occasions. It's like I know them all personally. Saddened by the losses and rejoicing in their many, many triumphs. Such gifted, and anointed people of God!!!! ❤
i performed with Richard! SO HONORED
This is so historical awesome to be able to hear how where when who was behind this icon Richard Smallwood this most beautiful man with such a humble spirit and love 💕 for people helps me to understand his incomparable gifting. He is a perfect example of what can happen when God is in charge The Center. Amen
Outstanding 🎶🎼🎶
This is just beautiful would have loved to be in his company build on family foundation
Precious memories! Those Smallwood Singers were THE Gospel Singers back in the day, I mean the intonation they had was incomparable! Every generation builds their image based upon those who they revere and have already paved the way for them. Although I did not get a career solely in music, and my success and profession has been in theatre, Richard has always been the focal point of the musical performances I've rendered. Thank God for Richard and the skills He bestowed upon him because he set a pace that my generation of artists gracefully follow. So proud to have witnessed the era of the Smallwood Singers.
So enjoyed this. Richard Smallwood is one anointed artist and musician...
Absolutely Fantastic!
