“I Tried Jesus”
The Jackson Sisters
From the Four Winds CD I Tried Jesus (2011)

On “I Tried Jesus,” the Anointed Jackson Sisters of Goldsboro, North Carolina offer a hard-shouting, altar-pacing, floor-pounding traditional ode to the power of Jesus in their lives.
The live performance from a program in Rocky Mount, North Carolina features an extended vamp and several false endings during which the female quartet chants “Jesus” as the lead exhorts to breathlessness. Sweat-inducing.
The sisters, whose church home is Gospel Light Temple Apostolic Church, are Barbara, Carl, Maria, Pam, Catharina, Doris, and cousin Catrina. Those who enjoy the Anointed Pace Sisters will most certainly enjoy the Anointed Jackson Sisters.
