Sweet Inspirations Biography
Sweet Inspirations CD discography Together in various permutations since the 1950s, the Artist, founded by gospel/soul great Cissy Houston, were the female back-up singers who sweetened some of the most important soul recordings of the '60s and '70s, performing on hits by Otis Redding, Van Morrison, Aretha Franklin, and many others in the Atlantic stable. They also recorded several albums as a group unto themselves, garnering some R&B chart action along the way, and delighting listeners with their classy mix of soul, gospel, and pop panache. Their most high-profile gig came after Houston left for her solo career, when they were hired to sing backing vocals, and open for, the Elvis Presley during his celebrated Las Vegas shows. They continued on as a unit, with an ever-shuffling line-up, right up until 1979.
