Dr. Bobby Jones is a legend, arguably not so
much for his musicality as for his flagship show,
Bobby Jones Gospel, the longest running show on
cable TV. His legendary status may be attributed
in part to the manner in which he advances
gospel music as an art by graciously extending
his national platform to other talented acts across
all subgenres of gospel and inspirational music.
Through the years, Dr. Jones has been blessed to
score many memorable collaborations (Dr. Maya
Angelou, Donald Lawrence, Melvin Williams,
Vanessa Bell Armstrong, Barbara Mandrell, et al.)
for his projects; the latest of which, "Rejoice With
Me," features R&B diva Faith Evans. NSC
(formerly known as the Nashville Super Choir)
joins in on the uptempo contempo radio-friendly
tune.
Following a brief intro, Dr. Jones steps aside from
the mic, allowing Evans to do her thing.
Characteristically, the soprano's riffs and runs
soar effortlessly as she exhorts, "Trust God to
work it out / All you gotta do is shout!"
Dr. Jones' full-length project is expected to drop
in March 25, 2014.
