Cathedral Quartet at their best.
This song features all four vocalists singing the words to the first verse and the shape notes to the second verse. Classic!

  • what album is this

  • Love Gerald Wolfe's playing!!!!

  • @elavaney Left to right is bass George Younce, lead Glen Payne, baritone Mark Trammell, and tenor Danny Funderburk. Having said that, George has the melody at first, and Glen takes it later on. Glen and Mark often switched parts, too.

  • @MrKyledude18 I've watched this video dozens of times trying to figure out who the lead tenor is.  Just doesn't make any sense...........Still, it's a fun song.

  • @AmosPressley I sing Sacred Harp.  It's a lot of fun. Easier I think because you only have 4 shapes! Fa So La Fa So La Mi Fa. When I play a recording for my friends and they hear the shapes they always ask "what language are they singing in?!"

  • Gerald hung on to this when he went to Greater Vision. About a month ago, I heard Greater Vision on the radio singing the names of the notes on "I'm Too Near Home"

  • In the 50's when I was a voice major in college we had to do that in our theory class. But boy I couldn't do it now!!

  • In a group called Greater Vision. I believe he started it. Not sure though.
