Gospel Railway Praise

Keyboardist: Gail Nobles

The Rance Allen Group was a gospel music group formed in Monroe, Michigan, named after its lead vocalist, Bishop Rance Allen.

The group was formed by vocalist, guitarist, pianist, and songwriter Rance Allen with his brothers Tom (drums) and Steve (bass guitar); another brother, Esau (percussionist), joined the group on an intermittent basis.

They have a song titled Everything Is Gonna Be Alright. from their 1972 album the Rance Allen Group. I love it when they stop all the music and let Rance sing with the drums and the background singers. It’s a song that makes you feel like clapping your hands or tapping your feet. It’s a gospel song that makes you feel just what it said: Everything Is Gonna Be Alright.

Rance Allen was a Bishop, Minister, and gospel musician, and of course the founder and leader of the Rance Allen Group. Known for his extremely wide vocal range and powerful singing voice, Allen became known as the main lead vocalist and the leader of the influential group. He passed away on October 31, 2020 at the age of 71. Rance Allen left us with great memories and music.
