Ultimate Gospel by Elvis and the Sam Cook Gospel collection are a couple of good ones.  I listen to gospel music more than one might expect and I find I enjoy the classics like How Great Thou Art and Touch the Hem of His Garment over the newer gospel music by a wide margin. In my opinion, the traditional Gospel music has a majesty modern gospel doesn't.  This is just one white man's opinion.

The old hymns have a wonderful depth to them....the lyrics are almost God-breathed in some cases (IMHO).   

Modern gospel and modern southern gospel has some wonderful songs, but the foundation of these modern songs are the old hymns.  I love em.

How about anything from U2's Joshua Tree album? Any of that count as gospel?

Just thinking lyrically is all. Plus, there's that Rattle and Hum version of "Still Haven't Found" with the church choir ...

Great record nonetheless.

Stanley is excellent. "O' Brother" opened me up to all kinds of great stuff.

The man has a great voice.  I never had much of a appreciation for bluegrass music until I got a little older.
