The Clark Sisters loom large over the modern gospel landscape, which rests mainly on the legacy of their soul and jazz-influenced recordings for Detroit's Sound Of Gospel label. Sample the highlights here. In the late 1970s and into the early 80s the Clark Sisters changed the face of gospel music. With the natural musical talent of Elbernita "Twinkie" Clark guiding the way with her compositions, they created music which addressed the important spiritual concerns but melded it with a modern edge. The group claimed this was keeping true to their ministry in bringing the word to a wider audience, but traditionalists disagreed. When 'You Brought The Sunshine (Into My Life)' crossed over to the discotheques there was uproar in the gospel community.
