some of the greatest singers ever right there!

yes, no only his voice, but had a dry sense of humor.

I was blessed to hear JD Sumner and his group in person once time. You could feel the vibrations of his voice.

hey have you vidios from jd sumner and the stamps ??????

I'm jealous!

He sang an octave too low most of the time, as do many gospel basses (jes' showin' off). That is bad. It creates dissonant chord structure . You'll never hear a Barbershop bass flout music theory and show such disrespect for the sake of vanity.

@@shurshot2764 excuse me? He was one of the most Godly people. No one cares if barbershop basses do or Dont flout music theory, most probs don’t know it lol. Plus people like when the bass singer hits a low note! If you don’t like it, you can get, please and thank you

@@BecauseHeLives39 And your musical credentials????? AND - GAWD has nothing to do withit

@@shurshot2764 I’m a bass and a baritone singer, my mama is a music minister, I sing all the time. I play bass. I have a lot in fact. And GOD has everything to do with it

@@shurshot2764 what’s your music credentials

If you're wondering, it's called ( 56 endings ). JD Sumner was known for it, that's 1 of the reasons Elvis wanted him as his bass singer.

@@SonorGeek05 i know

Did rick strickland ever sing with bill baize

@@susanarseneault9046 probably during their more recent reunions but I don’t think they ever sang together(I could be wrong because I have truly No idea but I don’t think they did)

metalbornmetalbred Donnie Sumner had far better voices then any of these bumps on stage (except JD)... Although JD doesn’t have just “such a great bass voice” as it is the Lowest. It’s great, but maybe not the softest sounding, as a George Younce. I forget if it is Jim or John Hill, but he, Blackwood, Donnie Sumner, and JD, were the best set of stamps that ever were to be.

Jeff R. J.D. was putting his had up to, (or over), his ear, in order to hear his own voice better, so that he could be surer of staying on key. Many singers do that, (especially Baritone or Bass Vocalists), if perhaps they cannot hear their voice quite good enough coming out of the stage monitors. If a singer cups or covers his/her dominant ear, or places 2 or 3 fingers in just the right spot on their ear, it helps their own voice to be reflected back to them, and they can hear it better.

thanks

So he can be sure he's hitting the low low note on pitch! His notes are that low.

It’s to help him to nail the notes, he does that to hear himself better

That is Rick Stickland.

Ed Enoch was a wonderful singer, as were the rest of the group. They used to stop at a little church in northern VA on Friday night's to sing, before going on their way to major concerts further north.

You need Jesus

How do you figure?

Just because u don’t like it doesn’t mean he’s awful. In fact he is quite the opposite. The quartet is quite the opposite of awful

@@BecauseHeLives39 AMEN.... WELL SAID...

@@suelott9612 thank you sister, may God bless you!
