Bill & Essie Moss - Just The Two Of Us (Live)
Today I have more time to pay proper respect to the recent passing of Bill Moss. Bill Moss was throughout his career a major influence in the Detroit gospel scene as recording artist, songwriter, producer, label owner and 'patrias familias' of the Moss-Clark family which included his sister Mattie Moss-Clark, the Clark Sisters, his son J Moss and of cousre Essie Moss with whom he recorded a lot as she was a part of the Celestials his backing group during most of his career. Bill Moss had an extensive recording career on a wide range of labels. He started his career at Gospel and from there he moved to his own label Bilesse. In the seventies he worked for Jewel and Westbound."Just The Two Of Us" is taken from the album "Live" recorded in 1978 (Jewel LP 0139) in Houston,Texas.
I received the news of the passing of Gospel Music Legend Bill Moss Sr. with great sadness. In 2002 I was blessed with the opportunity to record the video for their live project. During the production I was able to spend quite a bit of time with minister Moss and his wife, evangelist Essie Moss, at their home conducting an interview with them for the video. When we started the project, I had no idea what a huge impact this great man and woman of God would have on my life. Bill Moss Sr. penned the words to a song that has carried me through some tough times ever since I first heard it. The song "Use What You Got", is about taking the little that you have and making the most of it until you are blessed with more.

Here's to the man that introduced the electric piano to the church.
My prayers go out to the Moss family, and particularly my good friend Bill Moss Jr.
God bless,
