The singing was fantastic and what you have to really consider Mr. Satanic 666 basher man...ONE MAN singing ALL FOUR parts of a barbershop quarter...you cannot expect someone to be a true bass AND a true tenor AND a true baritone...hell, even Pavarotti had a forced sound in my opinion. When I see and hear Barbershop666's SOLO four-part version on here, then...ONLY then will I eat my words (preferably with curry powder, because it makes so many things taste better). CHEERS, MATES!
Spaguy, On the Banks of the Wabash is about the Midwest and was composed by Paul Dresser of Terre Haute, IN while living in New York City. It has nothing whatever to do with the south, much less the deep south. "On Moonlight Bay" was also composed by a Midwesterner, Percy Wenrich of Joplin, MO, while living in New York.
The subject of the song (cotton industry of old) is scaRy, but there is something fascinating about this song, and this clip is like nothing I have ever seen or heard. Truly amazing. Well done! And great singing too. MK.
Thanks for singing the intro to this classic. Some of the best songs to sing in four-part harmony came from the deep south in this era - Old Black Joe, Old Folks at Home, Moonlight Bay, On the Banks of the Wabash, etc... Harmless, beautiful, loving songs. Also, thanks for NOT singing it in the NEW style of barbershop! Nothing wrong with doing it the old, easy, and proper way. Well done, my friend!
Nice take on an old classic!

Ah. So sounding old, weak, excessive vibrato, and wonky pitch is the preferred style of barbershop for you? That makes a lot of sense.
