Did you know that Ray Charles once sang with these guys. I am fortunate because I have seen these men along with many other gospel singers like Sam Cooke, James Cleveland, Swan Silvertones, Soul Stirrers, etc. I've seen hundreds of singers and groups. Mahalia Jackson, Highway Q.C.s etc. Thank God for age.

back in the 1950s, the blind boys were in concert with sam cooke and the soul stirrers in Florida,the pilgrim travelers and many of the great groups of the era performed on this night as well.the soul stirrers sang over their time limit only allowing the last group (blind boys) time to sing one song (our father).they stole the entire show with that one song.Archie Brownlee was sam cooke's idol but on that night he was Sam Cooke's Teacher.

AWESOME! Page 138 in the Church Hymnal. I like the way they do it too.

@shortrax Actually there were two videos of RH Harris with The Gospel Paraders on Youtube. The songs were "Born Again" and "Have You Got Good Religion". I can't remember exactly why they had to be removed but it had something to do with the person who owned the footage leaving certain instructions in his will. I don't believe there are any footage of Brownlee or Cooke singing Gospel. The earliest videos tend to come from a show called TV Gospel Time in the 60s. And Brownlee had passed by then.

That's Purcell Perkins (who wasn't blind) who starts "shouting" first. He traded shouts with Archie a lot. He's the deeper voice. Archie is the voice that cuts like a razor. Great stuff! Any Archie videos?????

I've never seen any footage of Archie at all, maybe there just isn't any. I believe he used to leap off the stage, which would have been something to see.Never seen any RH Harris either or even Sam Cooke doing gospel. It would be fantastic if some footage turned up of any of them.
