"Once Upon A Time" (Arr. Campbell) | Tag | Tutorial | Singalong |

Link to my website: detlefsenmusic.com
This might just be one of my favorite tags of all time - "Once Upon A Time", arranged by the mighty Rob Campbell and sung by gold medal quartets like Keepsake and Musical Island Boys.
To me, the Keepsake rendition with Joe Connelly's charismatic lead voice is such a memorable performance.
There are some different version of this tag, but I chose to stick as close to Keepsake's version as I could - for instance letting the bass hang with the post instead of pausing.
I hope you all enjoy this new format for short/easy tags, where I post the full tag, the tutorial AND the singalong in one big video. Let me know what you thing of it in the comments!

Intonation is so good here you can hear the Ab overtone in the final chord in the Tenor-less singalong at the end. Insane!

I believe Tony also sings Once upon a time on the second measure, but still sticking on the D.

[@BarbershopTagAlong]

Yeah, you could be right about that! I think I mainly sang it the way I learned it years ago 😄
