This is in the key of C. JD goes under a low G and then sits on the G. I've got JD singing it 1st in B and telling James Blackwood to drop it to the key of "A" James says are you sure and JD replies "I'll hit it". May of 1959 FT. Worth, TX. JD goes to C# and back up to low "E" and holds it forever. JD was the man.

they could sing a song on their death bed..it will still sound good!!
-
Timing, breathing, pitch control....JD could take a seemingly impossible passage and make it sound easy. One of a kind voice.

No, Cecil Blackwood (as in this video) replaced R.W.

Please forgive my ignorance, but wasn't Whitey Gleason the piano player? I saw this group many times at Medinah Temple in Chicago at all nite singings promoted by Lloyd Orrell. That was the highlight of my Daddy's life, I'm sure. I believe Lloyd had a son named Larry who had his own group, The Orrells??? Not sure about this. Anyway, I throughly enjoyed this video. Thank you for posting it.
