      Loved him. This was hilarious. My daughter doesn’t know much about southern gospel and she came in my room while I was listening to this JD impression, and she said is that a gorilla singing lol!

    When Harold sings as George, it sounds soooo much like him!

    This is EXCELLENT! His Younce, Sumner, and Jim Reeves are particularly good.

    Did anyone else notice that it was supposed to be a double low C or C1 and Harold ACTUALLY sang a Double Low B or B0 instead?

    I had the pleasure of playing piano for Harold when he sang bass for the Potter's Clay. He got us on the National Quartet Convention when it was held in Nashville. He was one funny guy and a great bass singer.

    Absolutely awesome! The differences between George and J.D. are classic! They loved each other to the core, though. Very emotional video on youtube about it. Thanks!

    Alot of people don't know this but JD Sumner loved Peg McKamey like a sister.. thats probably why Harold throwed up all the Peg jokes.. Ruben always said "most people who know me know Peg most people that know Peg dont know me, and if you don't believe me ask JD Sumner.."

    George Younce really took it two steps below JD Sumner's lowest low, and they wanted to put it in the Guinness Book Of World Records, he would not let them put it in it. He did not want to take away from him.

    • @TheShospitali
      @TheShospitali 9 років тому +1

      JD was great, but it was true George took it two steps below JD Sumner and would not let them put them in in that record book, because JD was known as the lowest Bass Singer on record, George did not want to take it away from him.

      Considering J.Ds lowest note was a Subcontra G, I don't think you're counting ranges correctly

      Well, Its exaggerated a bit but J.D. was a bit arrogant about his low note. Not so sure about the bragging about being with Elvis.
