EMI Gospel

One Last Time (Live)
About This Album
Contemporary gospel's recorded music event of 2007 was staged by none other than the Clark Sisters, one of the most celebrated female vocal groups in the history of the genre. Since chief songwriter Twinkie Clark left the group to pursue a solo career in 1991, the sisters had a hard time regaining the footing they had during their prime, and eventually hung it up for almost 15 years. In that frame, they all stepped out on their own with varying degrees of success, but things were never quite the same as during the quartet's zenith. The gospel community eventually got used to the idea of Twinkie, Karen Clark-Sheard, Dorinda Clark-Cole, and Jacky Clark-Chisolm operating individually, even if the parts never quite measured up to the sum of their voices. Finally in 2006, while each of them took a breather from recording, EMI Gospel seized the opportunity to orchestrate a reunion, and in the summer of that same year, Live: One Last Time was committed to tape. Of course, a project of this caliber couldn't just be left to chance. To make sure everything sounded just right, the label enlisted producer extraordinaire Donald Lawrence, whose knack for flawlessness is perhaps the disc's only misgiving: Live is so polished, glossed over, and overdubbed to perfection, you can't possibly tell what was done live and what was done in the studio.
