Mahalia Jackson, there is no more powerful a voice. If she doesn't make you feel something, well, maybe there's something dead inside you. She is one of my favorite singers of all time, second only to Mavis Staples. One of the many things I find most amazing about Mahalia's voice is how soulful, powerful, and ground shaking she could sing in the quietest of voices. Now she could certainly get loud, but she had this otherworldly ability to sing at barely a whisper, and still move mountains. I'll keep this simple, she was awe inspiringly amazing.
