Off topic for harmonica, but very important in terms of the development of African American music in the US. In addition to the music of the plantation workers, the gospel music of the church was the basis of soul and R&B and blues that has developed into today's popular music. This music is awesome!

The first clip is their hit "Oh Happy Day". The second clip is "Praise Him" - classic soul clapping church music.
