The Blind Boys Of Alabama, six-time Grammy Award winners, were formed at the Alabama Institute for the Negro Blind back in 1939. For almost 40 years, the group performed mainly in black gospel circles, including churches, auditoriums and even stadiums. The group's first recording, "I Can See Everybody's Mother But Mine", was released as early as 1948 and is considered one of the most important influences on later gospel, r&b and rock'n'roll styles.

The Blind Boys Of Alabama's influence on the world of gospel and r & b has been undeniable for decades. The band's achievements have served as a role model for a huge number of musicians for generations and after 70 years of existence, The Blind Boys of Alabama's star still shines bright!
