  • I hear Cissy over everybody else.....her voice was very outstanding....it stood out in her background vocals. This is indeed a treat...this is what i grew up on this type of gospel.

  • that harmony is absolutely amazing... I can listen to music like this all day...

  • UMM I GUESS HI IM NOT SURE IF WE ARE RELATED BUT I CAN SING AND MY LAST NAME IS DRINKARD REALLY OCKWARD BECUASE YOU DONT REALLY FIND TO MANY DRINKARDS IM FROM BLAKELY GA AND MY GRANDMA NAME IS GLADYS BATTEY SO IDK

  • Marie sounds remarkably like her niece Dionne Warwick.

  • Never ceases to amaze me how a song can make you cry at first,,,,then it can make you feel happier than ever. I mean that sincerely. Just amazing. I heard this group for the first time this morning. Wish I couldve heard this sooner in my life.

    Thank you. Bless ya. 5 and faved.

  • Great post.... one of my favorites... would you happen to have "What A Friend We Have In Jesus" by the Drinkards... It is a solo on one of their albums? GOD BLESS

  • Awesome!

  • The beginning of a Saga...

  • If they were a rock group, they'd be called a tribute band. This is Newark's local version of Dorothy Love and The Original Gospel Harmonettes. Everything about them -- harmonies, syncopations, diction -- is out of the Harmonettes' rule-book. Their greatest lead Judy Guions sang, strutted, and even quickened like Dot Love.

  • I don't think that Cissy would call what they did a tribute to anyone other than God. The Drinkards started as children singers, and were singing straight ahead hymns, later evolved into a full gospel group.

  • Alright now! I almost cut one,almost.

  • Alright, Alright!!!

  • Which sister is singing lead on this song. I was thinking it was Marie/Rebbie?

  • I'm not totally sure if it's Marie or not...I want to say it isn't, but I don't want to lie to you...LOL! I'll find out for you though.

  • Thanks, of course I know Cissy's voice very well, and have heard Annie sing live, not as familiar with Marie or Lee's singing voices. Marie can be heard singing in documentary made about Cissy some years ago.

  • You are correct! It is Marie leading this song. The reason why I couldn't tell is b/c I have a live song that she led, and she sounds TOTALLY different.

  • Thanks for sharing this song, what a great sound!!!

  • Thanks for checkin it out!
