Music for The Color Purple

[charmax]

I am never usually stuck for song choices when it comes to vidding but recently after re-watching “The Color Purple” I decided I really want to vid this film and the song? - nowhere to be seen. Finding the right music that does the movie some justice is proving to be difficult. I don’t know how many of you on my flist have seen the film? It’s set early 20th century. What would you do? Do you have any suggestions? What I am looking for is either gospel, jazz/blues or a mix. I have looked at various artists both black and white singers but nothing has clicked yet.

Anyway if you think you might be able to help please comment. Throw some artist names my way. :D

ETA: I am open to instrumentals as well.

So it wasn't Bronze Ambition. Hmm. I've visited Katherine's site for years, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't hers. Maybe Passion & Perfection? Now it's going to bug me until I track it down again.

Anyway, good luck on your song search. I look forward to your future vids, be they Color Purple or another fandom.
