Been an Elvis fan a long time. Only recently realized Elvis really into gospel. When I feel like crap I listen to this kind of music .
I like this group a lot. I WISH we'd had such talent in my church growing up( sadly no lo.l)

Genial
They opened the show for Rick Saucedo, 20ish years ago. What a fantastic performance it was. To make it better, they were Saucedo's backup singers during his show.
Awesome harmonies!!!! Love this.
That lead by Gordon Stoker is as fantastic as it was on the album
can the original poster let me know the source of this great clip? A movie? A TV special?
I have to come here every so often to hear these gentlemen perform with their beautiful voices.
I wish there where albums made with Hugh Jarrett.. Looking all over Google, I couldn't find any with him nor with this same group.
Love you Gordon....RIP
RIP GORDON
R.I.P. Gordon Stoker. Amazing footage. Elvis used this same arrangement for his recording. - JG
RIP, Mr. Stoker. Elvis was blessed to have you on his team. And this was your moment!! God bless you.
Man, just heard that! Wow...
Excellent, just saw this clip from the American Masters show on Sister Rosetta Tharpe. Turned me on to two great acts.
RIP Gordon
