Rebels Quartet - Over the Moon

[@Ljmusic25]

I wouldn’t expect anyone to see this comment but the man on the piano is named little jimmy Taylor (Jimmy). He was my papa and he passed 8 years ago. It was a sad time but I know he is standing in fromt of the Risen Lord and Savior

[@ailtonsouzadearaujojunior2210]

R. I. P. Your father's piano playing is so nice to listen to!

[@guestguest2030]

My sympathies. What a talented man your father was!

[@doug-mg5nm6kb6w]

You will see him again, maybe soon, when Jesus returns to take us home.✝

I've heard a lot of really good bass singers in my time but everytime I hear London my jaw drops. Younce was like that in person in his younger days. The tones just fall out. Thanks for this gold nugget

[@marklandreth2197]

You have to appreciate this really smooth tenor. So many nowadays are "squealers".

[@gospelbarndoraalabama6821]

This group line up was incredibly good quartet. Top to bottom

[@blythefair8803]

Wow! The talent continues thru the generations🤩

[@fpoasec]

Jim Hamill sure loved this song all his life.

[@BlueParadoxical]

What a group. This is great.

[@beatapt5]

I listen to this almost everytime I youtube. Best I've ever heard this song done. Thanks so much for this posting!

[@daviekey6507]

love southern gospel music

[@m_recordz]

New York, London, Parris, Munich. Everybody talk about...Pop Music!

[@2010eab]

Thanks! Great job!!

[@adkinsda]

Glad you posted this...RB did some great singing. I guess it's in the genes.

[@whitneychan2005]

Yay! My uncle Ronnie!!!

[@GospelPhil]

Absolutely marvelous! Ron and Charles both sang with the Rebels a while back. Again, London is the man....love his kind of bass singing! Compare with the Weatherfords who did this in 1959 or 1960..have the album!

[@ronaldshank7589]

London Parris, and Jim "Big Chief" Weatherington:2 of the best Bass Singers that there ever were, from back in that time period. J. D. Sumner was the lowest Bass Singer of all time...but he wasn't the best Bass Singer. Not by a long shot! Maybe it's just me, but sometimes he seemed to have a little bit of a problem with getting just the right pitch, vocally speaking. That, and it sounded like that, when he went really, really low, he was kind of "Whispering" the lowest of the Bass Notes that he was trying to reach.

[@dabeinman]

listen closely at 2:14 to 2:16! man london is amazing!

[@rickray7948]

That note I’d an F#

Ronnie Booth was the man.

[@HenryBemis1]

Wow, it's scary how much Michael Booth looks and sounds like his dad! :)

[@patriciawickholm3617]

They all look so similar!!

[@knowmusicman157]

not even close. Ronnie was the best up there with Rosie.

[@joannwood3151]

Ronnie looks just like his Dad!!

[@WillBravoNotEvil]

Sho' nuff!

[@patriciawickholm3617]

Easy to point out the "Booth" in the quartet!!!

Awesome Crooning!

[@codi6850]

I've watched this too many times..

[@QuallsKen]

London's real name was Conrad. Lee Roy Abernathy suggested the name London with his real last name of Paris would be more memorable to the public.

[@JohnJohnson-cd6ct]

Ken Qualls you are wrong. His real first name was Conley. I have an article that proves this fact. By the way he passed away at the age of 61 on labor day of 1992.

[@beatapt5]

You're right.

[@Cool223100]

I want lyrics, please.

[@sammckinstry]

J D Sumner maybe edged it for depth, but London Parris edges it for tone quality (richness) IMO.

[@ronaldshank7589]

If these two Bass Singers were alive, and I was starting a Gospel Group, and needed to fill the Bass Singer's slot with one of these two, it's Mr. London Parris, all the way! There are at least 3 reasons for this. 1:Indeed, Mr. J. D. Sumner could sing all the way down to the bottom of the Piano Scale, but when he was singing down THAT low, it was like he was "Whispering" the Low Bass notes. 2:Pitch. Mr. J. D. Sumner could definitely sing, and that's a given. However, if you pay close attention, once in a while, he seems to have had a few times, where he really struggled with pitch for a wee moment, here and there. It wasn't much...but, once in a while, that seemed to pop up, albeit momentarily, and only on a sparse few occasions. 3: Lifestyle. That I know of, Mr. London Parris lived what he sang. However, for a long time, Mr. J. D. Sumner did not. His predilection to Alcohol and Womanizing nearly destroyed his Relationship with his Wife, and, come to find out, he never really gave his heart and life to the Lord, until much later in his lifetime. These are the reasons that I'd have Mr. London Parris as the Bass Singer, if I had a Gospel Group, and if he would take the Bass Singing position. Period!

[@sammckinstry]

@@ronaldshank7589 Thanks for these details. I heard London Parris in person with the Blackwoods in Glasgow fifty-odd years ago, and it was a great thrill for the full house they had at the Green's Playhouse theatre.

[@jackiedawn316]

Is that Ronnie Booth singing lead? My grandparents loved the Rebel's and took me to several of their concerts when I was a young child. These videos bring back a lot of great memories.

[@RaiderFire33]

i believe ronnie boot is singing tenor on this song

[@TheMastersQuartet]

@@RaiderFire33he’s singing tenor. The lead singer is big Jim hammel

[@Kurupted2damax]

does anyone know where I can find the music score for this hymn plz I would love you have it....

[@beatapt5]

This song is always listed as "Over The Moon". Isn't the title "Above The Moon"? Anyone know for sure?

[@KendallKent]

Did they ever put on a album with Parris bassing?

[@connwilsonsix]

Sorry to ask a dumb question, but who is the tenor here? I'd love to find more of his stuff. Love the Rebels!
