This is still amazing. Ken Turner is a legend! The other singers did a great job too. Remember, the original 80s version was professionally produced...this was just a cell phone recording.
It's ok to say he couldn't quite get the lowest notes. A phone recording is easily good enough to pick up intonation issues. Hell, he was 80 and got nearly all of it flawlessly, I'm fine with him not completely nailing.
He sang a fair portion of this an octave higher than he normally does, I suspect to help the other guys find a stable tonal center. They struggled without him.
My top 10 fave basses of all time: 1. JD Summer (of course) 2. Richard Sterban 3. Ken Turner, 4. Thurl Ravenscroft 5. Avi Kaplan 6. Tim Reilly 7. Gene McDonald 8. Geoff Castellucci 9. Tim Foust 10. Paul David Kennamar
Yep. Avi Kaplan, Tim Foust, and Geoff Castellucci are def top 10 fav basses for sure. Hello fellow fan of Home Free, Voiceplay, and Pentatonix/Avi Kaplan.
Also I watch this everyday in memory of Ken because I love this song so much and every time it ends I am all tears because I love his lowwww voice and he was such a good singer 😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

No, it was all live-it's mostly easy to tell because he doesn't immediately go into subharmonics in the last chorus as he usually does, and also because this is a church and not a big performance so it's not significant enough for playback.
Still killing it at 80 years old.

Easy to sound good when you have a literal earthquake singing bass

I shouldn’t have laughed that hard at this comment
Glad to see that he's doing well since him singing the low notes to this song became viral.
Yeah, very happy to see he's going well !
Glad to see Ken is still killing it after so many years, but hot damn that Tenor NAILED it, gave me chills.
It's a giant singing with 3 twigs, what a powerful voice
The others do pretty good!
@@viperstrike3827yes
The old fellow can still can do it!!! Great bass singer. Probably the most entertaining performer ever in gospel music.

Holy shit I never realized how much Ken carried them in this 😂
wow how old is this legend of a bass singer
80
He's 82 now I believe.
84
He's actually 85 now
Going on 87 currently.
In his 80's Ken still sings some good bass.
80 yrs old!?! Wow what a voice!
86 now
The great thing about bass vocals is that they tend to get stronger with age.
@@annefrank8619 What? That guy is 86 and still sounds like a tuba. Absolutely awesome
@@fullervisiondotnetyea but those are subharmonics not full chest voice
He got higher as he got older
He nailed that last note! Great group of singers
I'm still a fan of both
Who is lowest bass between you and Ken?
The Nic Val!!!
NIC VAL I'm not a bad person Nic.
@@tuiwaqa3176 nic is lowest than ken
@@torybrasileiro3026 low'er', not low'est'.

Ken are the best bass what I heard. Greetings from Poland

That or it is because he is in his 80s and cant hit those notes anymore?
@@thatoneweasel y’all should see the guy that hit C0 to this song on his tuba
keep in mind that he's in his 80s
@@thatoneweasel I think he hit a C1 at 3:11. In an old video he also hit a C1. He can still hit those low notes since subharmonics make it way easier.

Only argument from me is I'd find a place for Richard Sterban on this list - near the top.

This is so wholesome to see that these same people still have this much talent.
That ending brought me to tears :'(

@@republicanparty8448 when and how did he die?
I think I felt the earth move when he hit that note haha
Great group! Ken is awesome!
Is he still alive?
Subharmonics are amazing
Did Ken hit a C1 in this?
No they're not. They're cheating in my opinion and they don't have the presence that modal singing has
@@ashleythorpe7933 they sound good and are hard to do i don’t think they’re cheating

Obrigado por compartilhar! O bebê até se assusta com o grave 😂 from Brazil
I imagine that Joe Swanson from family guy would sing Ken Turners part of this song.
I would love to see him try
I swear it's subharmonic. but still not a lot can pull it off that low! none that I've seen or known. least not yet
Just Me look up tim Riley with gold city, best bass to ever song bass
I thought it sounded like fry... U could be right tho
It's ingressive phonation
Simon for this it’s subharmonics I know what subharmonics sound like
I thought it was a subharmonic
beast, favourite singer
Doesn’t matter who wrote it. It’s Ken’s song.
what a legend
Preciosidades Vocais...Cantam para o Excelso...
Legend.
3:00 THAT LOW G THO
OMG THATS KEN TUNER OMG
Ken is awesome I really like him, Tim Riley is my favorite though

Also Ken: "Casually hits the lowest C on the piano."
Wow! Awesome!

GREAT!!!!!
Muito bom, lendário!

They are kinda pitchy to be honest...But still the bass is the master
I was to scared to say it but they really are
Tenors are very bad

why is he not with the gaither group?
Even the piano can't go this low !
It can💀💀
Sensacional

Prachtig nummer
The audio kept cutting out because the notes are too low for man-made sound equipment to pick up
Someone needs to put this guy on SF6
Desafinou, mas ja tem mais de 80 tambem
Why do subharmonics sounds good if this man does?
Now he is showing off lol.😀😀
What note is there ? “Theres a rainbow of “”love”” note of love ?😅❤️
A low C1!! I don’t think I’ve heard anyone do it but Ken
@@sophiekeene at 80!! Nuts
His voice is that of Paul Bunyan
Not even Adele could roll in Ken's voice
I adore you, is posibility to meet?
Is he still around?
Yes
2:40
He is using subharmonics. Not true tone. You can hear the main higher tone under the low tone.

Es el mejor bass pero poco reconocido ya que no veo que sea un bass prestigiado por otros
Příšerný
he doesn't sound that low as before :(
80 years old, bro... impossible haha
listen to the end of the Lonesome Road clip. He gets down there!
also the song is faster then in the older videos
he hasn't the time to go really deep
Aislados That happens with age you lose some abilities you had younger, as you get a older!
Plus, he was seated, which really restricts vocals/breathing patterns, at least in my experience.

Was the bass playback? Since he stopped singing but the note kept going
No, it was all live-it's mostly easy to tell because he doesn't immediately go into subharmonics in the last chorus as he usually does, and also because this is a church and not a big performance so it's not significant enough for playback.
Its just not the same

The piano is out of tune
