If you do not like southern gospel...
 

Then do not read this thread! :D You have made yourselves clear. The majority here do not like SG, but there are a few that do.

For the last year and a half, I have had the honor of serving as assistant pastor to Bro. Wendell Jellison here in Tennessee. Once in a great while when his daughter Lana and son in law Tim are in service with us, I get the honor of singing bass with them. The following clip is from last Wednesday evening's service. It was taken from a digital camera, so the quality is not what I would like for it to be. You will hear harmony, but my bass is a little hard to pick out.

Great job! I love Southern Gospel. I am trying to get a quartet at my church. Btw, How goes it Brother Flemming?

Re: If you do not like southern gospel...
 

It goes VERY well. How are u?

Re: If you do not like southern gospel...
 

I am not particularly a SG man, but I do love music so I checked it out anyway. You all sound good and I good hear the bass.

God Bless

Thank you, tstew.

My range is still there, but my vocal quality is not what it once was. My voice is not nearly as smooth. Preaching has taken it's toll on the ol' vocal chords. I use the same techniques preaching as I do singing. I know to sing from the diaphragm, but sometimes when preaching, the exuberance of the moment over-rides the brain! :D

Re: If you do not like southern gospel...
 

I can hear the bass vocal. Very nice.

Re: If you do not like southern gospel...
 

I like Sherri Easter, The Crabb Family, The Hoppers and others. But I don't particuraly care for quartets. But I do like to hear harmony.

You just have to remember to breath like a dog pants and you'll be fine. :)

Re: If you do not like southern gospel...
 

Let's see if I remember....


AND the LORD said...HUH
God loves you...HUH


so on and so forth


:D LOL

I remember the first time a teacher instructed me on breathing from the diaphraghm. I asked you mean I sing and breathe at the same time? :crazy
