I first saw The Imperials with Russ Taff in Bend Oregon in 1980. He was the one who planted the seed in my heart. I was living a nightmare with a monster of a stepfather and when I heard this music and the hope in the message, I believed!! I went on to be a lead singer in a christian group for 12 years!! Praise Jesus!! Thank you Russ for your obedience to the Lord!!!

I appreciate the honesty in your answer and I know we all have questions about things, but for me, no doubt I have ever had could ever persuade me that He is not alive and real. I have seen too much in my life to NOT believe. I may not understand everything now, but I know one day I will. Everyone goes through heartache also, even Russ did. Just keep your heart open and I hope that maybe you can have an experience in your life where He shows himself to you as the living Lord.

@RichNewnes actually my loss of faith had more to do with god and the bible. other christians weren't really the reason. i have been hurt by christians but noone goes through life without being hurt by someone. that was really the least of my many reasons for loss of faith. as for Taff, i probably mixed him up with his father, i had heard that years ago and thought it was him. people are people and have struggles in this life. i am removing my op as it is too harsh to say there is no god.

@withfootnotes Btw I did a search on google for "Russ Taff alcoholism" and all I could verify from that search was that it was his father who was an alcoholic, not him. If you could point me to something that says that he struggled with this as well, I will accept your statement. But, even if he did, how could you possibly use one man's weakness as a justification for your unbelief. For something this important, you should have something much more substantial to base you claim on.
-
@withfootnotes So you will base you belief in the existence or non-existence of God on the actions of people in this world who are fallible and frail. Such a conclusion is not logical nor intelligent. There is, by very definition, only one perfect being in the universe and there can only be one. People make mistakes and have weaknesses. That is what makes us human. That is why we need his love. Thank God he is so merciful and forgiving and I hope you will find out one day for yourself.

The Imperials ended when Russ left and Michael went back to jazz/pop.

I always hoped he would lean toward blues as his career went on.

This is Russ Taff at his best, which also means The Imperials at their best.
In my opinion, when Russ left The Imperials, he acquired too much "Country Twang" in his singing and also lost a lot of vigor and energy.
Paul Smith was the next lead singer of The Imperials, doing very well with the group but it just wasn't the Imperials that Russ had helped make.
This song...this singer, and this group were at it's absolute best right at THIS point!

I spent many many months on the ocean listening to the Imperials with Russ Taff. I too wish he had never left them. Lets face it...neither he nor the Imperials were the same. I know the Imperials are still singing and Morales is still with them. And Russ did a stint with the Gaither Vocal Band a little while ago. But the Imperials with him singing lead was proabably the greatest group EVER. Just my opinion.
