NotesThe soundtrack to the1982 film documentary on gospel music, "Say Amen Somebody" is joyful and moving, even lacking the visuals provided by the film.

Dorsey and Willie Mae Ford Smith, whose dynamic "song and sermon" approach to gospel set an almost impossible to duplicate performance standard.
