“After nearing the 40 year mark of being in ministry and doing music as a profession, I am elated about this latest work ANTHOLOGY LIVE,” said Richard Smallwood. “I’m probably more excited about it than anything I’ve done up until this point as it speaks to my history and traces my steps musically from the beginning stages until now. Along with my Vision family and guests who have been a major part of my history, it is our hope that people who listen will not only be encouraged and inspired to marvel and remember from where God has brought them, but to press victoriously through whatever obstacles they may encounter.”
ANTHOLOGY LIVE is a brilliant collection of 11 new songs and 3 medleys with interludes that capture the inspiration and journey of Richard Smallwood’s 40 year career. Performed with his longtime choir Vision, the new project celebrates the legendary musician’s past and confirms his mainstay in gospel music.
