Legends RIP
And the brother in the hat looked a lot like Fred Westley of the JB'S
So soulfully phenomenal 🙏🏾
His voice and singing, is like magic. It's real music to my ears.👍👍😊❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much. I miss the guys so much. It was nearly 30 years ago we shot that scene and I remember it like it was yesterday!
Once Jimmy sat up. It was on!
Amen! He was the greatest!
😂Yes I saw that..
The Persuasions are one of the greatest a capella vocal groups ever. One of my FAVORITES for sure.
Que música linda, que voz
Que legal !!!
Never in my life have I referred to a musical performance as exquisite until now, that was absolutely exquisite.
Love them.This is what real talent and musicality looks and sounds like
Just amazing...wow.
They truly are the ambassadors of accapella!
Does anyone have the whole documentary?
It was never released except on PBS TV
They say Jimmy Hayes looked up to William Bobo. Bobo is all over my page. Bobo could get alot lower than Hayes.
Kendall Kent could he get lower than Melvin Franklin?
Or JD SUMNER?@@roberttaylor6694
One of the greatest Lead singers & for sure the best bass singer EVER!! RIP Jimmy Hayes. You will never be forgotten.
That's how they started! Jerry and Jimmy singing on the street. Jimmy knew somebody, who knew somebody et cetera. Soon there were the original five, and glory be. What excellent work they did!
Brendan Blaylock Truth. Let's keep the real alive
RIP Jimmy. Thanks for everything.
Sing on Forever Jimmy Hayes...
Refreshing! They mean the music, so you feel it.
This is what street corner singers do. I hope is doesn't become a lost art.
MrGandharva108 Me too
@@reginabond4722 one of the greatest instrument is the human voice!
This dude's bass voice is off the chain!
The greatest a Capella singers ever
See this makes me just laugh at the so-called singers of today with their auto tunes and sampling. Do you/we really appreciate just how few people could just bust out with something like this on the spur of the moment with no enhancements, let alone no instruments.....
i totally agree with you , so tight .can't be beat i love it
Thanks for posting this treasure. Jerry and Jimmy are so in sync it's like they're reading each other's minds. Beautiful. I'll bet this was recorded with one mic, too, and it sounds fantastic.
The greatest singers ever!
