Those all got released by Sound of Gospel, which were the following: Free Spirit, Free Spirit Vol 2, St. Louis & East St. Louis Chapter of GMWA, and The Unforgettable Years. Early lifeNicks was born on July 18, 1941, in Lincoln, Nebraska, to Rev. Charles Hercules Nicks, Sr., a Baptist preacher, and Alliece Mahala Nicks (née, West), a pianist, which they named him after his father.[1][2][3] His mother was his greatest musical influence early on, which gave him the impetus to learn to play the organ, and this he did aggressively and assertively.[2] He would become the organist of his father church at the age of 16 that eventually he got to pastor from 1972 to 1988.[1][2] Personal lifeNicks was married to Lucille (née, Monroe),[4] at the time of his death from a protracted illness of aids in a Detroit hospital.[1] Nicks had a sister, Beverley Nicks, who is of Los Angeles, California.[4] Music careerHis music career started in 1985, with the release of Come Unto Jesus by Sound of Gospel,[5] and this charted at No. 9 on the Billboard magazine Top Gospel Albums chart.[6] He would release four more albums to chart on that very exact same chart, some while he was alive, yet others were released posthumously. The albums charted were the following: 1986's Free Spirit at No. 6, 1988's Free Spirit Vol 2 at No. 3, St. Louis & East St. Louis Chapter of GMWA in 1989 at No. 22, and The Unforgettable Years in 1993 at No. 22.[6] Discography
