the thing is,is that they been around for a long time. 4 singers,a old school drum machine THAT DID NOTHING ELSE but "put ta pap ta put ta pap" and be TEARING them churches up. meanwhile, these other groups be having everything under the sun on stage. the hummingbirds bring it back to the pure essence
My great, late, and much missed friend Howard Carrol. While Brother Howard was in a resting home in Philly I had the great blessing to be taught by him. He couldn't play anymore, but he sure as heck could tell ME how to play lol. I miss that gracious man so much. Thank you for sharing his music. God bless you.
@@andrekilpatrick7704 In my opinion the single greatest guitar player of the 20th century. Howard WAS bass, piano, a horn section, drums and the greatest guitar player that ever lived. Brother Howard was made out of love and heart. Every single day I would talk to him on messenger. His family his grandson (crazy talented young man). And then one day I called and he was gone. The Hummingbirds accomplished so much over so many decades. I feel selfish. God forgive me. Brother Ira. Brother Howard. My mentor. I'm selfish. I miss you.
I had the wonderful opportunity of knowing these wonderful gentleman personally. They headlined our anniversary yearly for over 25 years until Hurricane Katrina. I am now the president of the Zion Harmonizers Gospel Singers. I served under Mr. Sherman Washington, Jr. from 1986 until his passing in 2011. I look forward to meeting them all once again in the Heaven made new when Jesus Christ return return!
“One of my FAVORITE- GROUPS”! 2023-STILL IS”! My favorite-Song: “THE DIXIE-HUMMINGBIRDS”!(some of the Words:”Expecting x# of Peoples and sometimes only2-or3-SHOWED-UP”?)
My FAVORITE male quartet group of all time!😊💙 S.I.P. to all of them (on this stage)! Ira Tucker Sr. and James Walker were two of the GREATEST lead singers in Quartet history!🙌 I had the opportunity to see Ira Tucker in person and even sing a little piece of one of his songs with him at the church (a BIG highlight)!😊💙
Praise God Almighty, just watch and listen to the Godly men exalting Jesus Christ in song!!! I love Ira Tucker, he was for real, and I can feel the Spirit moving!!!❤❤❤❤
