The Big DooWopper's debut album, "All in the Joy" (DMK #742), featured a wonderful blend of Chicago blues, R&B, soul blues, doowop and other related styles. This time the entire program is made up of gospel songs associated with Mahalia Jackson. The Big DooWopper sings all the parts, including the harmonies, creating exciting performances in the classic gospel quartet format, like the moving "Lead Me, Guide Me". There's even two songs with twenty voices! And there are solo pieces - just the DooWopper singing his heart out and wailing on the piano. It's another moving musical testament by the sight-impaired street musician from Chicago.
12 Soon I Will Be Done with the Troubles of the World
13 The Answer Came
14 Walkin' to Jerusalem
15 In the Upper Room
16 I'm Getting Nearer My Home
17 Come to Jesus
18 I Wasn't Gonna Tell Nobody
19 Bless This House
