Artist:Yolanda Adams
Song:Time To Change
Album:Mountain High, Valley Low
This album made Houston based gospel singer Yolanda Adams a big crossover star with Open My Heart (a song she wrote). The CD is excellent and was a big shift to a more urban based sound for Adams. A lot of the credit goes to former Elektra Records boss Sylvia Rhone who told Adams to get the best producers and do things right. It proved that gospel has tremendous mainstream potential if promoted properly. Now that Rhone has gone to Motown, things aren't so rosy for Adams. On this record she works with Mary Mary & Warryn Campbell, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, Buster & Shavoni, Kelly Price and others. I was not a Yolanda Adams fan prior to this CD. It is highly recommended.
