This chapter presents newly unearthed information about the scope and impact of his efforts, as well as his early connections to the Vaughan and Gennett labels. Rodeheaver generally ignored the emerging boundaries of black, white, and southern gospel—in 1923 he sang spirituals with the Wiseman sextet, one of the first interracial gospel sessions. He also established an early vanity label, Rodeheaver Special, producing custom-recorded sermons and musical performances, and creating controversy by pressing records for a member of the Ku Klux Klan. Whatever incongruities he may have tolerated, he described his record label as a mission, not a business.","PeriodicalId":381050,"journal":{"name":"Homer Rodeheaver and the Rise of the Gospel Music Industry","volume":"176 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132385973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After becoming a best-selling recording artist he launched new forays into network radio and film, where he attempted to apply his ideas about community singing.

He borrowed from evangelical hymns, African American spirituals, and popular music to build a publishing empire in Chicago, selling hymnals the masses as a way to encourage community singing. After the decline of tabernacle revivalism, he successfully transferred his ideas to recorded music, radio, and film. While other gospel musicians had success in one or two of these areas, Rodeheaver brokered all of them to create the modern Christian music industry. His seminal influence is still felt today, even as much of the music he championed has faded into obscurity. Rodeheaver viewed gospel music as a catalyst for spiritual transformation—a belief that continues to shape the contemporary evangelical church.","PeriodicalId":381050,"journal":{"name":"Homer Rodeheaver and the Rise of the Gospel Music Industry","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124603555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When southern audiences demanded segregated tabernacle meetings, Billy Sunday and Homer Rodeheaver tried to ameliorate the situation by meeting with black ministers and organizing choirs from black churches. But despite Sunday and Rodeheaver’s fame for preaching against every form of sin, they were noticeably silent on racism. Their policy of welcoming every group to the tabernacle sometimes included delegations from the Ku Klux Klan, who gave Sunday donations that he never refused. Despite Rodeheaver’s genuinely harmonious relationships with African Americans and his lifelong promotion of the spirituals, his far-flung business interests created awkward contradictions. His Chicago studio made custom recordings for the Klan, including a parody of Rodeheaver’s “The Old Rugged Cross” with KKK lyrics, “The Bright Fiery Cross.”","PeriodicalId":381050,"journal":{"name":"Homer Rodeheaver and the Rise of the Gospel Music Industry","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122623489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Though sometimes criticized by evangelical gatekeepers, songs like “Brighten the Corner Where You Are” contributed to Rodeheaver’s personal popularity and business success.

Forced into segregated meetings during the Jim Crow era, Rodeheaver attempted to diffuse a difficult situation by organizing a mass choir from black churches, featuring spirituals and community singing. Occurring at the cusp of World War I, the meetings broadly influenced Thomas A. Dorsey, the family of Martin Luther King Jr., and the next generation of evangelicals. The moment illustrates Rodeheaver’s advocacy of black music for white congregations, but it also reveals Billy Sunday’s refusal to condemn racial segregation or the Ku Klux Klan. The tensions would continue for much of Rodeheaver’s life.","PeriodicalId":381050,"journal":{"name":"Homer Rodeheaver and the Rise of the Gospel Music Industry","volume":"156 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127355936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In so doing, he wandered into another controversy, the practice of exporting American music to other cultures—often called cultural imperialism. His gospel songs became popular because of their similarity to other music types, particularly ragtime and jazz—though this critical observation vexed him. The authors explore questions of musical style with new research on the recordings he preserved, comparing it to an earlier form, the parlor song. And while his relationship with flamboyant evangelist Aimee Semple MacPherson might have become a romance, it was more likely a business relationship, and a common affinity for bringing an evangelical Christian message to the masses.","PeriodicalId":381050,"journal":{"name":"Homer Rodeheaver and the Rise of the Gospel Music Industry","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123183443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
