Gospel music evolved in often surprising directions during the
post-Civil Rights era. Claudrena N. Harold's in-depth look at
late-century gospel focuses on musicians like Yolanda Adams,
Andraé Crouch, the Clark Sisters, Al Green, Take 6, and the
Winans, and on the network of black record shops, churches, and
businesses that nurtured the music. Harold details the creative
shifts, sonic innovations, theological tensions, and political
assertions that transformed the music, and revisits the debates
within the community over groundbreaking recordings and gospel's
incorporation of rhythm and blues, funk, hip-hop, and other popular
forms. At the same time, she details how sociopolitical and
cultural developments like the Black Power Movement and the
emergence of the Christian Right shaped both the art and attitudes
of African American performers. Weaving insightful analysis into a
collective biography of gospel icons, When Sunday Comes explores
the music's essential place as an outlet for African Americans to
express their spiritual and cultural selves.
