Better than being clueless Dwitty!

In case you are unaware this Topic is covered very well here at the Mudcat.
There already is a lot of very good information about this topic right here.

I have something I feel I need to say.
This Thread seems so rude in so many ways. By even starting a Thread like this, the act itself comes across as an arrogant attempt to dismiss the work of quite a few Mudcat Members that have spent a good part of their Lives supplying this Forum with Information about this very topic.
These people have studied, some still do, this subject and can discuss at length many origins, styles and examples of Black Gospel Music.
It would have been respectful to simply add to and refresh Threads already in the Archives as that would have been a way to give credit and at least a little respect to those Members, but alas it is apparent that does not seem to fit with the intent here.
I am sure my opinion, like so many of the opinions already expressed on this Thread will simply be ignored.
That perhaps is the saddest part of all. I will not be returning to this Thread.
