Nashville-based Light Records, which has been recording stellar gospel music since the 1970s, is digging into its vast musical archive to produce its new “The House of God Anthology” series.
Compiled by Light’s A&R Director James Robinson and its Vice- President of Radio Promotions, Gina Miller, the collection features the best of the label’s four decades of gospel hits.

“For those of us who have loved the music of Walter Hawkins, Tramaine Hawkins, Andrae Crouch, the Winans, and Commissioned since their original Light Records days, will undoubtedly think there was no time better than the present to release the House of Gospel Series,” says Miller. “Thirty plus years later, they are still giving us, who love gospel, their gift of song. The music they gave us then continues to be a mainstay in our hearts, celebrated on our iPods and sung in our churches on Sunday mornings.”

The first volume will hit retail shelves on April 24, 2007. “The `70s Volume 1” features Andrae Crouch’s “Soon and Very Soon,” Danniebelle Hall’s “Ordinary People” and Tramaine Hawkins’ “Changed” among fifteen other gospel classics. “The 80s Volume I” features Vickie Winans’ “We Shall Behold Him,” “Douglas Miller’s “Unspeakable Joy” and Sandra Crouch’s “Completely Yes.” There are volumes on the 90s and the new millennium in the works and scheduled for release this year.
