  • Can anyone tell me if these group is still around

  • There are two groups now. Robert Blair passed away in 2001. There are The Fantastic Violinaires which feature the older guys and Lil' Blair & The Violinaires which features newer guys.

  • Personally, I don't understand why there are 2 groups of Violinaires, I'm a huge fan of the Fantastic Violinaires and I have every album since Spirit And Soul and it's kinda strange to me how there is another Violinaries out there when the original members are STILL SINGING.

  • I was there this night. I was playing keys for spencer Taylor and all of us toured from Cali to NC I met McGurdy for the first time on that tour in Berkley. I was blown away at his range.

  • Superb! I have never heard a mortal man make a NOTE that high in my life! JESUS!!!

  • do you have anymore of this concert

  • @armystud979 That drummer is affectionateley known as "Bo -Bo" and oh yeah, he is the real deal!

  • @jcart91 The "new fellows" featuring Titus Stallworth on lead (also known as "Li'l Blair") are more of a "tribute group" in that Titus actually tries to sound as close to Blair as he can.....we all know that Robert Blair's voice was one of a kind....and hard, if not imposssible, to duplicate.....Titus does a Fantastic job. I've seen them live and they are awesome!

  • Great Intro! that drummer is on it!

  • everytime i see this video i love it more and more...THAT DRUMMER IS OFF THE CHAIN!!! GOD BLESS THE VIOLINAIRES PAST AND FUTURE!!!!

  • Rev. James McCurdy is up there for real....

  • @11xr1east oh yes he does. he can play and his style is unique! back in the day we could not wait for the quartetts singers to get in town.

  • @EWH636 the drummer mr bo bo from chi town has been playing quartet for 40 years, he has a sound and style of his own when it comes to precussion.
