My Take
Karen Clark Sheard belongs to gospel royalty, and I have enormous respect for the sheer endurance of her career. As the youngest of the Clark Sisters, formed back in 1973, she has logged six solo albums and seventeen with the group, a body of work most artists could only dream of. What moves me most is the continuity she represents, collaborating with her daughter Kiki and passing the tradition down a generation. Hers is a ministry of sound, sustained for half a century without losing its fire.
