I was the baritone with the Calverymen Quartet, the last group I sang with was The New Creations Quartet. I sang “Love Lifted Me”, it was Jim Hamill’s arrangement. I am from South Charleston, West Virginia. This should clear up any questions regarding who I am and if I sang Love Lifted Me and any questions regarding the arrangement.

yeh Mark is pretty good for an Arkie…an OLD arkie.

some Baptist dance too…

Scott ought to know. he took MT’s place and had to learn all his parts…I bet he listened to a bunch of Cat records.

A good bass, always makes a gospel song better…ALWAYS.
Amen.

Mark Trammell is THE MOST under-rated singer in our genre. What a voice…what a range…what a singer! He’s always been one of my personal favorites. People don’t seem to realize what an awesome talent he is. I love me some Mark Trammell!

Re Jim Humphreys:
He was the baritone with the Calvarymen Qt when Squire Parsons was the lead singer (prior to joining the Kingsmen)& Conrad Cook was the pianist (before he formed the Calvary Echoes).

Awesome! Live Naturally was (is) my favorite Kingsmen album. I closed my eyes and felt like I was transported back in time 27 years. Eric does sound a lot like his father. Ernie Phillips was my first SG hero. I remember as a 6-year-old singing along with him while listening to Love Lifted Me on our old record player.

I will say, though, Mark nailed the solo.

I don’t know about that…actually not sure who Jim Humphreys is…actually I believe it is one of Jim Hamill’s arrangements.

I think Levi was wondering if Jim Humphreys came up with the arrangement that the Kingsmen used.

This is an arrangement from the Kingsmen Quartet.
