I had the extreme pleasure of seeing them in ‘79 in Cleveland. I even got to meet them all and get my album signed backstage. The thing that stands out the most in my memory, other than the glorious music, is the rattling of the empty seats. It was in a huge auditorium, and they had those old style seats like a baseball park; metal with wooden backs and folding wooden seats, joined together in rows. When JD would hit those low notes and hold them, you would hear all of the empty seats rattling. It’s funny the things your mind retains.
I have heard J.D. sing this at my parents concerts thru out Texas, I miss those days. JD asked me and my siblings to a challenge one time 😂😂🥴 in my parents home. I was only 8 years old 😂 at the time. Fly high J.D., you and daddy can go fishing now. ❤🧡
Hello from England ELVIS died 2 days before my 12th birthday. I have been a FAN ever since. Watching a lot of videos about ELVIS and his " backstory" they make me think so much more about the years that have "flown by" OH MY BUT There are some of the videos that i have found hard to watch - you will know the ones i mean and i just CRY BUCKETS and out come the KLEENEX TISSUES. I know it's silly even after 44 years Then we come on to JD and The Stamps Quartet and again i am CRYING BUCKETS. What was it about these guys. Well for me THEY HAD IT ALL and "HOW GREAT THOU ART" IS SO POWERFUL and the WORDS and it was JUST PURE UNADULTERATED RAW PASSION AND EMOTION when i hear them singing I don't know when this show was but it must have been sometime in the late 1980's?
wow hope you posting vol 1 can you nashville shows again posting ( with interwiews from 1988 to 1993 ) or your jd collection again have a loong time nothing
Yes, you are right... I haven't posted in a long time. I put family ahead of hobbies....sorry. I will post Volume 1 soon. This was just to tide people over.
@@caseyb4425 remember, John Lennon is famous for "Imagine", a song about a Worldwide Communist Dictatorship (no borders, no religion, etc.). So it's totally feasible that the real John Lennon would have strong contempt for heartfelt, worshipful music like this. Especially music beyond his abilities.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the one and only -- JD Sumner AND The Stamps Quartet!
*The bass in JD's voice is amazing.

The voice of JD Sumner.. Singing and talking. Whoa!
@Lance Shepler, no, lol, it sure doesn’t.
God Bless us everyone, How Great Thou Art
Man JD has one of the best bass voices ever
JD Sumner you are sorely missed in this world
JD is a brilliant bass singer. Unfortunately he hasn't got a musical voice like George Younc. George was (for me) The best bass singer ever.
I have heard J.D. sing this at my parents concerts thru out Texas, I miss those days. JD asked me and my siblings to a challenge one time 😂😂🥴 in my parents home. I was only 8 years old 😂 at the time. Fly high J.D., you and daddy can go fishing now. ❤🧡
How lucky you were! I’m jealous. My thoughts go to your father and, of course, Mr. Sumner.
I love listening to this! JD Sumner and the Stamps! It's Gods music!
It doesn't get better than this.
How great they were, The Stamps
Fabulous

With all due respect to Eric, just too much bass for me.

No
You don't deserve to use that username after a comment like that
are you even listening to it or just looking how they sing?

@@semidhimmi3184 If that is all you got out of that song then I feel sorry for you.
Великолепный бас-профундо. Да и вообще дядька хороший
