I’m sixty years old and this is the first time I’ve ever heard of this group. Thank you for posting this. What a wonderful witness for our Savior Jesus Christ!
I used to sing in the false ado like that and never knew why till I hear them again. I used to watch religious programming a lot growing up. A lot of my singing is kinda like that and people look at me like I am nuts - but I think it is beautiful. I forgot where I got it from but I did know it was related to gospel.
I saw this Show las night on Prime on History of Gospel Quartet Groups. Wen I heard this Man, Claude Jester’s firs two or three notes, my Ears jus experienced smthng Thrilling and I want More. I kept rewinding video🥹😅🥰 The Placement and Discipline of Notes were like ‘Sneak Attacks’ The other Leading Vocalist and Background Harmonies Complimented jus as Well. I also Loved the way they Praised God on Stage. All Glory to God 🫶🏽🦋❣️

This is the music my mother sang as she cooked and cleaned in our home and it just found a place in my heart and in remembrance of her I can still visualize her 40+ years later singing this inspirational hymn. I find it most comforting when I am wondering about life's ups and downs. It can be very reassuring to the spirit and mind. The men who sang this were heavenly inspired and gifted.
Congratulations I discovered the the Swan Silverstones way back in 1959 as a young boy been a big fan ever since got to see them live own many of their albums

I remember my Grandmother, Mary Massadin singing this very song when I was a little girl. I'm in tears now. Happy tears! She still knows how 2 Encourage me, "She's absent from the body but her spirit is present w/ the Lord." RIP Grandma Mary. Love u from ur oldest granddaughter. Ivis
Ivis I was researching the Madagascar persecuted Christian under the queen ranalovona l she made Christians eat poisonous plants denied conversion and baptism at the end of the reign her Christian son became king for his slogan was Dont be afraid ONLY believe l believe in Jesus and im proud to sa
@@adonaiyah2196 Thanks for knowledge i had no idea but i definitely do my research. The song STill is a song favorite of mines not bc of it's history but what it means to me when i sing it or HEAR it. Thanks for the info.
the Swan Silvertones were one of the major influences of the greatest blues/rb guitarist SHUGGIE OTIS! You can hear their solo singing and improvisation in SHUGGIE'S playing and his licks!
Just called in for my weekly fix of this magnificent piece of gospel music. Their voices blend so beautifully that it really is such a pleasure to hear the gorgeous harmony of these wonderful singers. This is so good and healing it should be available on prescription. Just wonderful and live vocals too...
This the first quartet tenor i remember hearing as a child. Sung higher but not as soulful. Only one Rev Jeter. I still know all thing are possible with Jesus!
Jeter and Johnson were the Stylistic predecessors to Eddie Kendricks abd David Ruffin of the Temptations. Rev. Claude Jeter surely inspired every tenor that followed him, that man's voice was Heaven sent..
Funny you should mention that..MR.DAVID RUFFINr.i.p.was actually a member of THE SWAN SILVERTONES in Early Days before He Made The TEMPTATIONS a household name.Love&Peace
beaaauuuttttiiifuuull...............xlent version............love black gospel they sang from the heart...........cant beat it..........downloaded this onto my usb i blast it in my car!
Simply AMAZING!!! Thanks you SO MUCH for posting this TREASURE! I am Wagner...from Brazil, discovering in the 21st century these treasures of the past, which TH-cam allows to revive and be known by the new generations!
And them gospel singers sure got alot of pussy!!! Because that's how jesus wanted it! Like sam cooke, jackie Wilson, r h harris, and johnny taylor and wilson pickett. Only to name a few. They all knew, if you sing at church, the parents will trust you with their daughters. And you whisper a little something something In a young girls ear, sing a little sweet song with their name, and watch them panties come off all wet.... lorrrrdd is my shepherd, he knows what I want.... right, Bernie mac???
Not everybody singing about Heaven going to Heaven. Not everybody singing about Jesus really know about him! But these men. Helped me with my Journey as a Pilgrim in this world being so lost in sin listening to their music. So I'm Grateful for the SPIRIT of My GOD that led me to them . ❤️
@@loriwesley3647 Hello!!! How are you doing today! Please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you're a fan!....Stay safe!!!
I was referred here by the Mike Bloomfield autobiography. Mike always represented the ones who brought him along and taught him- while he earned his chops. I would have never heard of the Swans; they are exemplary as musicians and the amalgamation that is American culture.
I can clearly now see how Paul Simon got the inspiration for Bridge over Troubled Waters from this group. Their long drawn out vocal style definitely exemplifies the same tune style found in Bridge over Troubled Waters...As a side note, this Jewish kid listening to gospel sure found the "source" of "..Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father .." James 1:17 as the source of the lyrics.

I got chills hearing this. A documentary on Paul Simon about his inspiration behind "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" led me here. 💗
HA! Paul's interview with Dick Cavett is exactly why I'm here. I truly hear his inspiration!!!
@@StonesAndSand is this the song. I am trying to find the specific song
same for me ..
Same
Me too
Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

Yesterday and Today by Claude Jeter is a great CD. I have been playing it in my car. How great is his singing !
" One Of My Favorites Songs I Played Often As A Child On Our Record Player on 45 Records ".........!
Lordy these were some sangin men!!!!!
All I have to say is wow!. I see where the temptations get it from
The members of the Temptations sang gospel in churches before they became the Temptations.
So true. David Ruffin was a member of some of those old Godspel groups
