Bono christened the choir "Angels in Harlem" when they performed with U2 at their church in New York in 1988, for the album and movie "Rattle and Hum." Since then, the Harlem Gospel Choir has been all over the world playing with soul divas like Diana Ross, reggae legend Jimmy Cliff, Beatle Paul McCartney, and theyâve even performed for Nelson Mandela and the Pope. The choir was formed in 1986 by Allen Bailey, who got the idea for the choir while attending a celebration in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King at Harlemâs renowned Cotton Club. She founded the choir after working with artists such as Prince, Michael Jackson, Isaac Hayes and Lionel Richie.
