A GENERAL BECOMES A LEGEND: The Godfather Of Quartet Music

A rare first person account of the inner world of black gospel quartets. Mr. Taylor was in the famed group The Highway Q.C.'s. His story starts in the early 1950's and comes up to the present day. Book includes great antidotes about performing with Aretha and Sam Cooke among others and includes a discography and section of photos, dealing with matters of race and his faith in God. The book is powerful and enlightening for anyone interested in the important worlds of black gospel music.
