Today, we remember Gospel star Edwin Hawkins who died January 15, 2018 from pancreatic cancer at age 74. He recorded and arranged the hymn "Oh Happy Day" with his Northern California State Youth Choir. This led to a record deal, the choir was renamed The Edwin Hawkins Singers, and the song became the first traditional gospel tune to become a pop hit, reaching #4 in America and #2 in the UK! Here’s a throwback performance of The Hawkins family performing that classic hit. #thestellars @thestellar
