Wow, I'm sitting here listening this and I'm in tears, I recall listening to this with my mom and she would have me to put it on a cassette tape for her. Wow bring back so many good memories.

These boys here could tear a church up with this song!!! No other groups on the ticket because The BIRDS would shut the house down!!!! I've Been Born Again.
May the Lord bless and keep you Brother Carroll. Thank you for all of those years of that wonderful guitar playing and singing. You and I are Facebook friends.
Bro. Carroll, I have been a fan of yours since I 1st heard u pickin back n the 70's, when my late father was bringing us up on the Hummingbirds, the Nightingales, the Mighty Clouds, the Caravans, and all the old time greats! i love your pickin ability Bro. Howard, truly, not another 1 like u!
My Papa’s favorite Quartet group. He transitioned on Feb. 24 2019. This month I am celebrating my Papa’s life by listening to DH. He was 90 years old.🙏🏾🕊😢😔 A little humor I know they got tired of singing for my Papa. He played their records all day every day and night.😂 He probably has them singing for him now in Heaven. I would not doubt it.😂🤷🏾♀️
I growed up listening at gospel music in the 70s the dixie hummingbirds the blind boys the heavyweights the mighty clouds this is real gospel these brothas can sing for real they were blessed by the most high
oh yes, i know i've born again... feel the fire, glory, glory!! yes, our Lord Jesus Christ is alright!! 🕊🙌🏽❤️ my dad always played the Harmonizing Four, the Swan Silvertones, the Dixie Hummingbirds, the Staple Singers, and the recording of Dr. Kings' I have a dream speech... i love my dad and those sweet, precious memories he gave us 🕊🙏🏽❤️
All those gospel groups were great, but the Dixie Hummingbirds were in a league all by themselves.I,m still on awe listening to them and that guitar player.
Praise the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY! This is the spirit-filled singings and music my parents played in the home, and when I got saved this is what was rocking on my stereo as my husband, our 2 kids and I listened to them! The Dixie Hummingbirds were among my very favorites, for when they sang they glorified Jesus Christ to the max!!!💗💗💗
I remember when I was just a kid at twelve years old when my uncle's use to sing in a gospel group in St Louis Missouri the Dixie Hummingbirds would be one of the visiting groups from out of town and they would bring the house down with nothing but great singing.
Mr. Carroll, you won't remember me as I was 12 yrs. of age when we met. (1972 in Cape Charles, VA) I played lead guitar for The Eastern Shore Silvertones...... the baddest group on the East (next to the DHs). When the concert was over you took me aside and said to me "you're working too hard; try these chords". I did and became pretty good. You and the DHs will always be my gospel heroes. And to this day, I still sing LORD, I WANT YOU TO HELP ME just the way you all did back in the day. God Bless The Kings of Gospel!!!
I met them when I was fourteen or fifteen years old. There was always a rumor that Howard Carroll was my father. It was acknowledged by him also. I did spend time with him everytime they came to Rochester NY. Guess I'll always remain the secret daughter.
This was the GOLD standard of Excellent singing. My favorite was the all time intro, Who are we. Dude they were setting the stage for the future........ PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!! I miss true real singing like this
This is a powerful soul stirring song! I thank God for laying this song on The Dixie Hummingbirds hearts back in the day! Thanks be to God, I’ve been born again! Amen! Hallelujah!
i bought this album just recently. it was a signed copy, signed by his daughter. I actually gifted it to my dad, who cried when I surprised him with it. This is how I grew up. My favorite group...EVER! I'm the biggest Tucker fan. listen to his background vocals! They're even better than his leads.
They actually DID do it for money on the weekends. This was how they fed their families, and if you’ve studied what quartet was, it was showmanship. Ira Tucker himself said they had to develop a sound and a SHOW; in order to survive on the road. They did it for God, but it was a show nevertheless; and there’s NOTHING WRONG with thayv
This was the sound around my little North Carolina home, when I was a child. Mom would tune the radio to a station in Wilmington, NC and we listened to a Sunday morning program hosted by Dr. Drawhorn. Wonderful.
Go a head dixie hummingbirds praise god yall will be remember as gospel legends of quartet and thank you gospel nostalgia for bring good quartet music back
:) I had a ball Recording and Mixing this LP with Ira Tucker & Tony Beck & The Birds in 1976... and I also got to play drums on all of the tracks as well. Great Sessions,,, and wonderful times... RIP Ira ~Gene_Leone_Mix
Yes, it is me on the Drums, ...as well as Mixing the LP in post production at Quad Recording Studios in Pennsauken, NJ, with Ira Tucker, Tony Beck & Bill Holland. Great Sessions! ~Gene Leone
Gene Leone Mix man you don't know how many times I wondered who was the drummer because you were on with your fills , I got to see the humming birds 🐦 In Ohio they didn't have a drummer or bass player but they still did a great job I, played in gospel singing group so I knew the groups history as far as a bass singer Bo bo, But man you we're cooking on this . In my. Book this is the greatest Gospel Lp of all time , The spirit is all threw this Album thanks you

This one of the best Gospel groups of all times.
These boys here could tear a church up with this song!!! No other groups on the ticket because The BIRDS would shut the house down!!!! I've Been Born Again.
Rest in the Lord, gentlemen. You deserve all of God's blessings. Pray for us, brother Ira.
The rumor of my passing has been greatly exaggerated. That's my guitar you're listening to.
Howard Carroll Dixie Hummingbird
May the Lord bless and keep you Brother Carroll. Thank you for all of those years of that wonderful guitar playing and singing. You and I are Facebook friends.
I gratefully stand corrected, Brother Howard. How good to know you are still with us! Your guitar brought me closer to my the Lord.

Yes Sir
I grew up listening to them every day. Greatest Gospel group.

Takes me back to the time when I got saved. I miss church like this.
I remember when I was just a kid at twelve years old when my uncle's use to sing in a gospel group in St Louis Missouri the Dixie Hummingbirds would be one of the visiting groups from out of town and they would bring the house down with nothing but great singing.
i wish church was still like this. Glory
Amen
Real church is still like this.
Yes Lord!!! Awesome upload Gospel Nostalgia!!! The rich voice of Bro. Ira Tucker takes me to my carefree youthful days. ❤️💯❤️💯❤️

Brother Carroll passed away on 10/17/2017. He was 92.
I met them when I was fourteen or fifteen years old. There was always a rumor that Howard Carroll was my father. It was acknowledged by him also. I did spend time with him everytime they came to Rochester NY. Guess I'll always remain the secret daughter.
This tune was played over and over again back in the day! Wonderful! I feel like a seven(7) year old AGAIN!! SING Y'ALL!!
Indeed it was. Glad this is nostalgic for you.

This was real quartet singing when they felt what they sang it wasn't just a show that they did all weekend for the money. The were winning souls.
Amen and Amen!!!!!!!!!
They actually DID do it for money on the weekends. This was how they fed their families, and if you’ve studied what quartet was, it was showmanship.
