I suspect you don't have much exposure to Black gospel music - his style is much older than Del's bluegrass harmonies, much less the manufactured talent shows. I prefer a high lonesome tenor myself, but there is nothing phony about Clint's style.
i don't know, but for me, that opening singer was just way too phony, with that overblown affected voice that you hear on so many 'talent' shows these days. the song really kicked in when del and the boys started it up. interesting combination though.
This is musical heaven. The two styles seem to almost be born for this combo and I never would have imagined it. What a great idea and almost perfect execution :) pure bliss
Classy and Classic, Dixieland and Country are the closes of cousins, it's really the same music, as Charlie Gabriel (Mu Uncle, The Clarinetis) always say 'MUSICAL CONVERSATIONS CANCELS OUT COMPLICATIONS" See Charlie and his Brothers on my post ...wbillystarr

Whoa! That was one hot, gospel inspired, Dixieland blue grass gumbo. If that band would have had
5 or 10 minutes longer to play, they would have blown the roof off the Ed Sullivan theater! Man!
