martin was my cousin. he is a icon to gospel music. not only did he sing with the soul stirrers. he sang with his brothers the sons of jonah, the rest of my cousins.
**The Soul Stirrers!!!!!** This Is My Favorite Gospel Group. They Had A Unique And Special Style, Unusual And With A Lot Of Class.** Each Member Of The Soul Stirrers Played A Superb Part Of The "Greatness" And "Clarity" That No Other Gospel Singing Groups Possessed!!!!!** Legends Came Out Of The Soul Stirrers: Sam Cooke, Johnnie Taylor, Paul Foster, Willie Rogers, Martin Jacox, There Were Many Others; We Can't Forget R.H. Harris Of The Original Soul Stirrers.** Their Gospel Style "Stood" "Out" Among Other Gospel Groups. Jackie Banks Also Sanged With Them As Well; Lead And Background, Along With Instrumentals.** **”Spectacular Gospel Group!!!!!"**
I first heard the Soul Stirrers in December 1964, at Hall United Methodist Church. Mr. Farley, Arthur Crume, Willie Rogers, and Sonny, the bass guitar player who left shortly after that. The next time I saw the Souls Stirrers was at the New Memorial Baptist Church in Baltimore, 1968. I was singing with Ken A Derain and the Gospel Serenaders, from Pasadena, Md.
as a little girl my mama would take me to see the amazing Soul Stirrers The Martian Jacox would minister to my spirit I could keep my eyes off of him and his style of singing O my Goodness even now he and this group of men singing empowered by the Holy Ghost thank God For the reminder of how it's supposed to go
This is my favorite version sang by The Soul Stirrers. Rev. Jacox voice, every time I hear this song just moves my soul. No other version touches me like this one. Thank you for posting this video of one of the most iconic Gospel groups ever. R.I.P. Rev. Jacox and J.J. Farley.
Thank you very much bringing back memories this song reminiscing about daddy George who sang in the Male Chorus. I enjoyed the 🥁 drums and guitars and other instruments at the Baptist Church . Mom sang in choir 1 at the Methodist Church .Every day we listened to this video on the VHS tape .R.I.P. George 8/27/07 R.I.P. Grace 6/1/07 Yes Yes Yes Lord
The Soul Stirrers:** "Legendary" Gospel Group.** Ben Odoms, One Of The Soul Stirrers, Sanged And Played For Them. Jimmy Outler Was Another Singer, Who Had That "Sam Cooke" Blend In His Voice. A "Great Gospel" Group With "Great Lead" Singers!!!!**
This is beautiful! Notice how the guitar player has a rainbow colored guitar strap, this was made at a time before the country slid down...Revival 2020!
@luv2cut1 I sang lead with the Soul Stirrers after Martin passed and when Willie was working with Rev. Jackson, you can hear me leading (typein larry hilton cooke 4), but hte other lead with us was awesome out of SC Reginald Funderburke...I use to call him One of the Untouchables....Wow....Cooke
St. John 12:32-And I, IF I be LIFTED up from the EARTH, will DRAW ALL MEN unto ME. If you know Jesus, PRAY, WITNESS, Praise Him and watch Him draw. This world needs to know JESUS!!!!
Didn't know he was a pastor sounds like preacher I really enjoys his sing n and all the songs he song I feel the spirit in his singing he's very special with a unique voice !!👍👌
Come on now. Y'all better sing it. Shucks, I feel it....... in my feet, I am backing up , I feel it aaahhhhh......, in my hands,, all over me. Glory be to God , in the name of Jesus.
Are they still touring...my father booked the Soul Stirrers back in 1984 in Athens, AL and we had dinner with, J.J. Farley, Martin Jacox, Jackie Banks, Ben Odom and Willie Rodgers..I'll never forgot that!
I love this guy, saw him live in 1984, with the Mighty Clouds and the Canton Spirituals on the same program. He was a show stopper lol Had EVERYBODY in there laughing lol lol lol But he was a great singer though!
TO UNDERSTAND IT , U GOTTA HAVE IT ? IT TAKES A GENUINE IN FILLING OF THE HOLY GHOST .. DONT TOUCH WHAT U DONT UNDERSTAND ... THESE BROTHER'S HAVE THE REAL THING GLORYYYY RC
M.Div.; When the Original Soul Stirrers recorded this song "Back-in-the-Day" real Men! , and Women! still Praised the Lord! (Psalm 107:31), (John 12:32), and (Acts 2:38). "Have you been Washed in the Blood of the Crucified One"! (1 Timothy 3:16) and (Acts 1:8).

I have been looking for information on Martin & Willie but can't seem to find much on them I think this is by far the best lineup The Soul Stirrers not dissing the originals but after they started changing the members
Martin Jacox had an amazing voice. Great lead singer of The Soul Stirrers. But only after the late Sam Cooke,Johnny Jones, Frankie Davis and Eddie Huffman..
