	Traditional Gospel Music
		As Gospel Music moves beyond its incubator- -the church--it is imperative to understand where it is, where it has been, and where it is going.
		In the fl culture of the first half of the 20th cent., gospel music was considered antithetical to blues and jazz, despite their similarity of origins, and gospel performers rarely sang in nonreligious settings.
		While the greatest era in gospel is widely considered to be c.1945–1965, the tradition and the music remain vital in contemporary culture.

	Gospel music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gospel music may refer either to the religious music that first came out of African-American churches in the 1930s or, more loosely, to both fl gospel music and to the religious music composed and sung by white southern Christian artists.
		Gospel artists, who had been influenced by pop music trends for years, had a major influence on early rhythm and blues artists, particularly the "bird groups" such as the Orioles, the Ravens and the Flamingos, who applied gospel quartets' a cappella techniques to pop songs in the late 1940s and throughout the 1950s.
		Southern gospel also drew much of its creative energy from the Holiness churches that arose throughout the south in the first decades of the twentieth century and that created new music, in addition to the traditional hymns of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, to accompany their new forms of worship.

	The History of Gospel Music
		Though gospel music can be an extremely broad term, CCM focuses its attention on the music that sprung from the early African-American church and inspired a host of modern day choirs and contemporary gospel/R&B sounds.
		By its actions, the church declared Dorsey's brand of gospel music unworthy of a hearing within the sanctuaries of the day, a story quite similarly echoed by churches responding to the rock 'n' roll Jesus Movement that swept the country in the early '70s.
		As gospel music continues to grow beyond even Dorsey's expectations, one can only hope that it will be embraced, regardless of how it is labeled, by everyone who needs to be reminded of the Good News it represents.
