| | Glad you like this, Lee. Savoy's THE BEST OF THE CARAVANS (DBL/SCD 7012) is also a great one, with lead vocals by Inez Andrews, Shirley Caesar and others, though you might want to search out the double LP as the CD has one track missing. THE BEST OF THE FAMOUS WARD SINGERS (DBL 7015) is another great one in that series, featuring Clara Ward and Marion Williams, but you might have to make do with vinyl for that one as I don't think it has ever made it to CD.
The Davis Sisters had a great live LP out on RCA Victor in 1964, and it has recently come out as a digital download via Sony, so can be downloaded from itunes, or streamed on Spotify, Google Music, whatever. Ruth Davis (the main contralto lead) wasn't in the group at that time for some reason - I think there was some sort of split around then, which saw Ruth temporarily form a new group called the Davis Singers, though still on Savoy - but second lead Jackie Verdell (she's the second voice on "Sinner Man Where You Gonna Run To" on this best of; pianist Curtis Dublin is the male voice you hear on a few tracks) was still there. Anyway, here's the Spotify link:
