  • The 1997 the American Negro Spiritual Festival was held at Music Hall stage in Cincinnati Ohio. NLP's Bob Leibold was the video Director of a three camera shoot. Tuskegee University Choir was the Festival winner led by Musical Director Stephen L. Hayes. This clip features two of the "compulsory songs" the Choir sang during the contest. This video is the only surviving professional visual record of that day. Music Hall's famed stage acoustics was captured by WGUC Fm engineers.

      Your father is a legend if he directed the Golden Voices. I sang from 2011-2016.

      your Dad is one of my dearest friends in this world, we tried and succeeded to bring Afro American music to a dying Montgomery Alabama area. We did an interview in 1995 broadcasted on WTSU in Troy Alabama that was played three times by popular demand. Your Dad is an icon.

    Incredible voices. Got to be in the same room as Jester's hands; I cry almost every night thinking of his musical beauty.

    So was the video crew. The singing was incredible but the stage presence was exciting. Even Curtis Fuller, local popular TV personality, the emcee, commented on the "sit down" when he came back to the podium;. Real showmanship, congrats... fun watching....thanks you all for making it happen
