I’m so thankful for this video! I still have 4 albums by y’all! But I also have a great memory that I’ll never forget and that was I believe back in the 1980’s or 1990’s I had the honor and privilege to see you in person in Wilson North Carolina at the tobacco market. And if I recall correctly Anthony Burger had just recently started to play the piano with the group and he was only 16 and did he forever do a wonderful job playing! And of course I enjoyed the entire group and I will never forget that!!! Also I had just recently accepted JESUS CHRIST as my LORD AND SAVIOR so now I remember that it was in the 1980’s! I thank you for your Ministry and your Music will be remembered forever!!!
I knew Brian when he was in George Amons group Heartland boys. Then I got to sing a song before the Kingsmen came on. I sang the Third Day. Brian was still with them!
Well, as a older fan of Southern Gospel music, I have to cast my vote for the best lineup of the Kingsmen. That would be from 1973 when it was Big Jim Hamill, Johnny Parrack, Ray Reese and Eldridge Fox and Nick Bruno on piano. Go listen to Big and LIve from that year, recorded in Gadsen, AL. Maybe the greatest live gospel album ever.
to Ronald Shank, Ernie Phillips was known as The Little Giant. He is still a fine tenor, as is Johnny Parrack, so closely blessed with talent it is difficult to close a favorite. The young man in this video is Chris Collins, and is a life time member of the Grand ol' Opry. and a great talent in his own right.
Glad you.like songs. From Kingsmen quartet. They won me over the First time I heard them , their songs go straight to the Heart. Every time I hear them it's. Like Sunday Mass , All week !!! Can't get Better than that !!! Luv , Jules !
With all due respect..while you did not enjoy his presentation of the song, he did no ruin it. Many people were blessed by it..I may love a Ford..you may love a Chevy..NEITHER OF US ARE WRONG IF OUR CAR GETS US SAFELY TO WHERE WE NEED TO GO!! Different styles of music brings those with different likes to JESUS!! AND THAT IS WHAT COUNTS!! Pray for that..and don't be so judgemental. :) ❤
My favorite kingsmen lineup is Jerry Martin ( tenor ), Brian Hutson ( lead ), Parker Jonathan( baritone) and obviously Ray on bass. Must have Burger on piano and Randy Miller playing guitar with Arthur Rice playing bass.

As long as the song being sung is supporting Gospel messages , It is in no way fake . A fake gospel would be about a fake religion , other than about Christ's salvation and words of edification .
I have to correct myself-I know that Johnny's last name is parrack. My typing pad on this phone has been giving me fits! Also:I know that it's Kingsmen, not kingston. Anyway, they're one of my favorite groups of all time, as are the Cathedral s, the Inspirations, the Speers, the Greenes, & many others. Have a blessed day, y'all!!!
Blink and you would've missed his around one year stint. This was about as spastic as the group's direction ever. They had lost their big personalities. They had lost the backbone of their band in Anthony Burger. Their tenor was not a fit for their sound. And then there's Randy Miller, who was and is a great musician but when he got a solo it didn't fit for me. This was a very awkward look and sound for The Kingsmen. Flash forward four years and the additions of Jason Selph (who at that point was doing Tim Surrett better than Tim did himself vocally at that time) and Jerry Martin really made their sound as good vocally as it had been in at least a decade. Too bad the name change and all that it entailed derailed them for a few years.
@@yepyepuhhuhuhhuh3999 I've gotta agree with you totally! Tim Lovelace was definitely a misfit for the Kingsmen Quartet. Anthony Burger was a gem!!! 10, count 'em, TEN STRAIGHT YEARS of being the favorite gospel musician!!! The Kingsmen Quartet must've missed him dearly when he left in the mid 1990s. Then, there's this guy playing guitar in this video...he just doesn't fit! He's a great guitarist and vocalist, but he's a mismatch for the Kingsmen. The Tenor, Chris Collins, can sing, but, if I'd of been Eldridge Fox, I'd of looked elsewhere for another Tenor. As far as I'm concerned, though, Tim Lovelace was a horrible choice for the Kingsmen. Nice guy, and funny, too, but he just didn't belong. I can only guess, though, that Eldridge Fox just didn't have too many choices. Oh, well...it is what it is. To wrap this text up-You're right. This period in this group's history was definitely spastic!
Tenors for the Kingston from 1971-1996. Johnny Partake-my vote is yes. He was the best that they ever had. He was with them from 1971-1977. Ernie Phillips? A bit on the thready side, but also an excellent tenor. He was the highest tenor that they ever had. I vote yes on ol' Ernie, a.k.a. the little giant. Garry Sheppard? I guess a yes vote will do here. I almost forgot-Ernie was with the Kingston from 1977-1983. Garry Sheppard was with the Kingston from 1984-1993. The tenor in this video? I don't know much about him, but, upon hearing him attempt to sing tenor...well, he seems to have a problem with singing the higher notes in the tenor spectrum. Give me Johnny Partake,or at least Ernie hillips any day!
@@herecalico I just saw this comment, and you're definitely right on both counts. I had a different cellphone back then, and I also forgot to go back through my text, and make the proper changes in the wording. My bad.

Boy do I miss this kind of singing. Just something about it.

My favorite southern gospel quartet
This is the best kind of music! Tracks drown out what's really happening on stage.
I knew Brian when he was in George Amons group Heartland boys. Then I got to sing a song before the Kingsmen came on. I sang the Third Day. Brian was still with them!
He is all I need

We surely need to get closer to the lord the battle is daily this gospel songs do help thanks lord .thanks Fellers.
One of the greatest groups ever!

Jules. Juliano. I agree they won me over the first I heard them live. I love the Kingsmen. I love to hear Mr Ray.
AMEN. THANK YOU. AMEN. AMEN. AMEN.
I have this on a cassette tape ❤️
classic Kingsmen LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my favorite Kingsmen hymnal is "The Judgment." The words reminds me of the Bible Mark 15 Matthew 26th. Also Isaiah53
Whoever sang never been this homesick before completely ruined it. Wow.

Beautiful

That lineup is vastly underrated mostly because of the name change.
Love The Kingsmen

Give me Gary Sheppard, Ed Crawford, and ANTHONY BURGER all the time!!😂
Also Arthur Rice, great lineup...
Do miss Anthony. He was the best. Watch Just Stopping By On My Way Home daily
Agreed
Yes!
As long as the song being sung is supporting Gospel messages , It is in no way fake . A fake gospel would be about a fake religion , other than about Christ's salvation and words of edification .

Did y’all hear Just a Little Talk with Jesus!

His name Is Johnny Parrack
I think I know, but what video is this from?

Kristopher Hise
Does ray dean Reese sing the low notes in vocal fry of are his low notes just poppy like that
Ray Dean's low notes aren't fry just like JD they're chest or sometimes called modal notes.
@@lowluvver oml this was 4 years ago, i had no idea what i was talking about💀💀 oop-
THAT SURLY WILL BE A GREAT DAY WHEN WE MEET JESUS
HAZEL FLETCHER OWEN SOUND ONT>
Was this ever released on DVD?
Hamill launched Collins into the crowd on that last chorus.
Wheeeee!!!!!
That would've been 1997 not 1996
They re good but cannot compare to the 87 Kingsmen!
I agree with you 100%.
