Man I thought I was the only one out of sorts with these shows. I love the one on Christmas and the Easters ones are awesome. I d personally like to hear more of this on the radio. Them old time songs are really great!
David from Morningside Heights - check out Amazing Grace, Columbia University Radio's gospel show on 89.9 FM from 8am to 10am on Sundays. They play all this great old stuff.
Wow, this show brought back memories of growing up when we were still called Negroes, Sunday morning gospel radio, church 3 times a week, summer revival services, gospel concerts, all rolled into one hour. I've got to introduce my kids to this music. Thanks Leonard, I really appreciated it.
I love this gospel segment. it made me so happy, gospel music is great. i would love to hear it on your show more. what a nice surprise segment, perfect for this time of year!
I love this music. Please do it more often--every month would be good.
Thank you for this annual tradition. WNYC ought to compile the music from this show onto a CD and offer it as a pledge-drive gift.
it's Leonard's (Good/Better/) Best Friday. thanks!
Lenny -
Your gospel specials are tremendously uplifting. Thank you.
Thanks so much for the gospel segment, it makes my Good Friday every year. If only you could do it for an hour or so every Sunday at noon...
I can't wait for the gospel show. Even Jews can look forward to Good Friday because of Leonard.
