In the 1950's, my family knew a lady who said she thought Christians were being led astray by this kind of music. It still isn't my favorite type of Christian Music but I didn't agree with that lady's sentiment then and I still don't. I can appreciate a quality rendition of even songs that wouldn't be my first choice for worship services. The King's Haralds were one of the best Christian musical groups back in the day. If any group has a higher level of musical excellence in the twenty-first century, I haven't heard them yet.
Agreed wholeheartedly. It made my day to run across this post, as my family had a bit of a home court advantage with this very talented group. My mother worked for the Kings Heralds from the late 40s to mid 50s and she knew them personally during her employ there in Los Angeles.. she spoke 3 languages - English, Spanish and Portuguese, and part of her job included translation of English lyrics into those Latin languages for the language broadcasts, which were called La Voz de Esperanza. She passed in 1990 and Bob Edwards sang a couple of her favorite hymns at her gravesite service. I'd gone to grade school with his daughter Connie but hadn't heard him sing in years as he'd retired. He was still in beautiful voice, what a fine Irish tenor voice he had. I do remember my mom saying there was considerable debate over adapting the barbershop style of quartet singing for religious work, just as there is now, when the style was evolved a few years ago, once again, to a more country western flavor. But the Heralds owed so much of their success to their arranger and behind the scenes musical director Wayne Hooper, himself a fine baritone who I believe held down one of the four slots in the early days before his role changed. I also remember her saying that one of the bass singers was approached by, but turned down a job with, the Elvis Presley management, to become one of the Jordanaires. I think it was Bob Seamount. These guys did a lot of appearances at church functions and it was always a treat to hear them. They were the best in their day.
This kind of talent never goes out of style
Bob Edwards' voice as first tenor is unsurpassable. This batch of Kings Heralds group is my ever favorite.
Golden voice of King's Hearald
Praise the Lord
amen
They have nice peaceful songs
Loved this group
God Bless You !!
Theo kings heralds continua imbatível
