This was my favorite song from Elaine when I saw the Edwin Hawkins singers in Wormerveer the Netherlands in 1970 at the age of 15 years.My first and most impressive concert!

Wow This girl sure can sing up a storm. Tears of joy in her eyes when she opens up her throat and lets rip all that power. LOVE IT.

Such a PRICELESS TREASURE for so many reasons...love hearing Elaine Kelly in her best and powerful voice as led the audience in that call and response style vamp...the other treat for me is seeing Edwin taking a break from the piano and joining his Singers. His smiles and youthful energy as he joyfully plays the tambourine and sings clearly shows he loved what he was doing. Thanks for sharing and God Bless! ❤️🎼🎵🎶🎹❤️

Elaine is so joyful and lovely.. Love her voice and spirit

All these DECADES later and I'm just disco that this isn't Lynnette singing lead on Praise Him...what a revelation?! They sound so much alike!

They played this and similar tunes after midnight on the Gospel Train radio show in Detroit in the late 60s. Between songs the DJ would come on and act like the train conductor and say they were moving to the next car on the train. I was a new convert and I would sit on the living room floor and worship and cry until my mom would send me to bed at 2-3 am. Great memories.

Sister Elaine is #1 in my book!

The incredible vocals of Elaine Kelly

The greatest Gospel band,from my youth HALLELUJA AMEN,After 10 years looking,and who has them,but a never came on the name was in my mind gone and yes,there they ware there. Find and find wath you need and it makes you happy Amen DONT GIVE UP

I'm clapping my hands, patting my feet, and saying Amen!

God bless them all they give me the will to share

It was recorded in concertgebouw Amsterdam. I had the Buddha album "Edwin Hawkins singer live at the concertgebouw Amsterdam". Don't know if this album is available on cd or on the net. Always loved this song eventhough i'm not religious at all.

Let me praise Him!

If you have a clip of Walter Hawkins singing lead during this concert please post it, this is too cool and a very rare gem...thank you so much for sharing this with us!!!!!

As good as it gets ..listening to these anointed singers 50+yrs and of course others but hey come on this is live, this is where talent outs ...are you listening young singers ......love Elaine Kelly ...bet Irish ancestry....

Before Shirley, Lynette, Walter, or Tramaine there was "Elaine Kelly"

Everybody Praise Him Everybody Tap Your Feet Everybody Let's Praise The Lord Everybody Wave Your Hands

a connection to the power through voice. Wow Thank you

i don't believe in anything but myself...but gospel music touches my soul

I love it!!

Wisely and obviously, Hawkins was still insisting on a conservative dress code, even though the choir gowns were let go. This was not about showing off, but lifting and gladdening the souls of the audience. In concerts and on records that's exactly what Hawkins achieved, and it seems to me, exactly the kind of life's work the Kennedy Center Honors were designed for. Hint.

Getting my P R A I S E O N....

If she (Elaine Kelly) wasn’t an influence on Bettina Pennon of NYC... idk who was. Bc they sound SO MUCH aliiiike: approach, tone & ALL 🤯🤯🔥

I'am going to prise him

CHRIST IS BACK .... SHALOM ....I

The Glory Of God

It's cool to see Walter, Tramaine & Edwin (esp. @8:02)

Might be the finest song I’ve heard recorded.

Everybody Say Amen Everybody Say Amen One For The Father Two Fir The Son Three For The Holy Ghost Everybody Say Amen Everybody Wave Your Hands Everybody Wave Your Hands ✋ Everybody Tap Your Feet Everybody Tap Your Feet

ELAINE KELLY.

I wonder why Elaine Kelly didn't continue to record with the Hawkins Singers. Does anyone know why she didn't lead more songs, or why she wasn't present ?

Love this group. But I am still trying to figure out what is wrong with the audience?

Je souhaite savoir si le concert de Tramaine Hawkins "jazz in paris 1993 live" existe en CD. MERCI

The slower tempo detracts from the thrust of this great song. Makes it sound kind of static. Maybe it was the setting? PWG

Could this be recorded in the Mozes and Aaronchurch in Amsterdam?

Micah 6:8

Does anyone know where this was recorded?

Haha look at the stayed Dutch audience they don't know what hit them !!
