Let us not forget that there is a Cold War on (isn't there?) and give full credit to the basso profondo voice of JD Sumner who began his career with the Blackwood Brothers, and sang the lowest recorded note, a 'double low c', ever produced by a human voice (USA! USA!), therefore making the above mentioned communist singers, Vladimir Pasuik & Viktor Wichniakov sound like shrieking castrati.
JD Sumner and The Stamps - Wayfaring Stranger
From 1971 to 1977, he toured and performed with Elvis Presley. After Presley's death, he sang on the Christian T.V. ministry circuit.

JD Sumner has quite a mobile forehead. Emulated by the middle Stamp.
Up til now my standard for low voice has been Roy Rogers' Sons of the Pioneers ("My Lord is so low, can't get under him, you must come in at the door"). I've got it on a 78, but no turntable. Can't locate it on youtube. But I'm sure all of these guys are way lower. - M.Jean 6-01-2008 3:55 pm
Steve Banks had a copy of JD Sumners' 'Memories of Elvis', and he always giggled at the part where JD says: "I swear that Elvis Presley never took drugs."

I think Sumner might have been a genuine innocent, I've watched footage from the various TV ministry appearances and he doesn't come off as sanctimoniously as the rest of them. (also prescription drugs aren't drugs in their universe) - L.M. 6-01-2008 6:20 pm
OMG! If you are on broadband and can play all the Russian youtubes at the same time, its sounds like a horror movie soundtrack. - L.M. 6-01-2008 10:32 pm
