Harrington Brothers 11/9/08

[WolfSky77]

@Jotermets I still own the cassette tape version of their album, "Sing" - and it's as awesome today as it was in the 80's when I picked it up after a performance of theirs at Opryland during Christmas. I was only 11 years old, but that performance kicked off my desire to sing and I haven't stopped since! Glad to find this :)

[Jotermets]

Damn I miss you David Andrew Harrington.... 11 years and my heart still misses a beat when I hear that voice of yours!

[Jetgui22]

If I die when I'm old and go to heaven I want them singing.

Very beautiful gift from God.

[OwenParrish]

More bari on the tag..........jk! ;-D

[blank000]

Nice tenor :-P Where did the name "Second Edition" come from?

[cpjds1]

The suspension/resolve in the intro is astoundingly good :D

[kevintnr11]

wow they are all grey now LOL ok doug, lets see you do the back flip now LOL

[texas22bull]

Awesome! I'm ready for an album from these guys!

[mattdre88]

That suspension was killer.

[BarbershopHero]

Good grief! Doug is singing tenor on this... Freakin' awesome!

[kitzmiller100786]

Doug always sang tenor with the brother combo. It wasn't until Second Edition that he sang baritone I believe.

[SingersLeader]

@kitzmiller100786 That's correct. I saw the Harrington Brothers medal in the mid 1990s. Look up Second Edition at AICGold.com for their bio info.

[kitzmiller100786]

@SingersLeader The Harrington Brothers weren't in contest in the 90s. They medalled in the 80s.

[SingersLeader]

@kitzmiller100786 Sorry. It was a typo on my part. ;-) They were in the top five in 1986 which was the first year I attended the SPEBSQSA convention.

My daughters went to high school with the Harringtons and were in a number of musical productions with them. They still have the most gorgeous sound, such an incredibly talented family. Sure wish they'd put out a CD. They need a David Foster to "discover" them! Love you guys!!

[mikhasw]

@flahagan You must be old as shit.

[Jotermets]

@flahagan they did have a CD it was called Sing..... I had a copy when I was on the cruise ships.

[tigerman4]

I had David as a coach at HCE ( Harmony college east ) last year...he's a NUT , but he is great !

[ljtubbs]

the bass is freaking gorgeous

[riotangel88]

ohhh myyy daaayyzzzz!!!!!!!!

jaw dropping...

[tubeltonhousen]

holy crap.

[jaywalk6]

Great singing...but my favorite part is the littl boy who just comes trucking through the middle of the quartet the whole time they are singing..."yeah, they're okay...but, where did i leave my pitchpipe?" Ha. :)

[Randomzan]

Holy heck they are still freakin awesome. I hope I stay in good singing shape like they have!

[flexigurl9]

awesomee! i love reunions haha.

[pelza12]

Wow this is amazing- almost as good as GHG!! I say this as respectfully as possible, but I hope I'm half as good as they are at their age. Man!

[ktimes4]

They are The Harrington Brothers. One of my all time fav qtets. They placed 10th their first international in 1981 as KIDS. Then 7th. Then they sat out a year and came in 4th. Then in 1985 they placed 4th again and never competing again. The two on the right formed Second Edition who won in 1989. And that is who they are! : )

[bordonthestreet]

Thanks Kipp! Jeeze, hearing this, I don't doubt they could have won it together somewhere along the way! That's some power-barbershop right there! haha

[ngusten]

The two on the left actually :) David and Doug..

[bordonthestreet]

Holy crap, these guys are awesome! why haven't I heard of them?

[Coleey123]

Wahooo go the Harringtons! Awesome job, you nailed it! See you in Holland :) Sarah x

[vanceperry]

That's flat out awesome! Nice job guys!

[gormanation]

[amcalexa]

Thanks, guys. I'd forgotten how tight your sound was. That was awesome! Love your arrangement too, David. One of my all-time favorites.

[ktsinginglady]
