Who is it for, and what types of music do they like?
They are French Nobility residing in Paris. He's my wife's cousin and is both an HR Director for a large corporation and a Corporate Judge. His wife is also a gospel fan and she's a Medical Doctor. Prior to our visit two years ago, for their son's wedding, we found out that they just love gospel music. Their attraction to gospel isn't about religion, they just love the music and there is little to choose from in France. That's all we knew.
Having no background in gospel, I simply bought a few CDs with black people in robes on the cover and hoped they would like it. They did. As a matter of fact they hired a black gospel group to sing at the wedding. They were awesome and every tune was performed acapella. The reception band was rock.
They are paying us a visit in late April and I want to pick up a few more disks for them.
Sorry for the dissertation, but I found it most interesting that a couple of highly educated, white, French people had discovered and simply love black gospel music.
Thanks to all for your suggestions. I should have some time to check them out today.
Jeff
