I wonder why the dude in red constantly has a sour look on his face. You've got Ken Turner singing some of the best bass ever, right beside you. Whats to be sour about?

[@layden3339]

What happened with Bill Shaw, and Cecil Blackwood? I do not know when J.D. Summer joined the Blackwood Brothers.

[@basssingerericwinston3561]

A little late to respond but Cecil Blackwood died in November of 2000. J.D. Sumner joined Blackwood Brothers in 1954 left in 1965 when he took over The Stamps Quartet. John Hall joined and sang with BBQT 1965-68. London Parris joined from 68-72. Ken sang with them from 1972 to 85 or 86...

[@arkyhumbos]

Bill Shaw sang 1952-1973 and at reunion specials. Pat Hoffmaster then sang 1973-1980. Both Bill & Pat have passed on the heaven. This video was made around 1993-1994.

I'd say Ken Turner got a stern talking to afterwards from the reaction of James towards the end lol lol.

[@NikoPorter]

Why?

Mr. Ken Turner!

[@EnchiladaMan360]

Great quartet! James Blackwood maintained an exceptional set of pipes until the end. I bet that Ken Turner also plays brass instruments; his imitations are far too good to have been done by someone unfamiliar with the techniques involved in brass playing.

[@SejInte]

I love that Bass, he had a unique voice

[@sebastianwendl603]

Has, not "had". He may be over 80 now, but the voice is still there (as far as I know).

[@kylgir]

[@gwkfighter7925]

[@EnchiladaMan360]

I believe he is 6'4" or 6'5", about the same height as J. D. Sumner.

What will we say when we stand before the throne of judgement.God loves us and Jesus died for us to be forgiven. Please accept Jesus as your Savior.

[@EnchiladaMan360]

Their version of "This Old House" is just as good as The Cathedrals!

Somente have the lyrics of the song?

[@Djm8520]

I’ll be contrary. I never liked Ken Turner or his vocal fry and shaky pitch. I also didn’t appreciate the way he told tales out-of-school about JD after he passed.

KEN TURNER IS MY UNCLE

[@LazyHubbStudios]

Ken is a terrific bass, but he hams it up way too much. It ruins some of his songs.
