Any TWINKIE CLARK fans? I dont know if there's a lot of fans of Gospel music on here(though I have seen various posts about Tonex) but is anyone on here a fan of Twinkie Clark? Twinkie was the leader, composer, vocal/musical arranger and instrumentalist of the Gospel group, THe Clark Sisters. She wrote ALL their material and arranged it all musically and vocally. She is a legend that has penned countless Gospel classics such as "You Brought The Sunshine", "Is My Living In Vain", "Hallelujah", etc. Coko formerly of SWV sites her as her #1 vocal influence as does countless other secular and Gospel acts. There has not been another female in Gospel of the last 3 decades that has impacted Gospel vocally and musically like Twinkie has. Any Twinkie Clark fans on here?
btw. "Twinkie" is her nickname, her REAL name is "Elbernita" [Edited 3/29/05 19:39pm] | |
