Notes / Reviews

Finally on DVD! This recording captures a 1995 live performance in San Francisco, where Sweet Honey, the Congregation of the Glide Memorial Church, and children all sang along in joyous celebration. Drawn mostly from Sweet Honey' s award-winning children's recordings All For Freedom and I Got Shoes, the songs include old spirituals, tradition-rich play songs, a moving medley of civil rights anthems, and even an uplifting acappella rap. Interviews with children in the audience and Bernice Johnson Reagon, founder and long-time artistic director of the group, add depth and perspective to this 'concert for the child in each of us.'
