The Golden Gate Quartet Sings "Blind Barnabas"

One of the best gospel quartets of all time, formed in 1934 and most active throughout the 40's and 50's . I first became aware of them back in the early 50's from an Okeh record, a subsidiary production of Columbia. This is "Old Blind Barnabas," one of their better known hits. A version of this was contained in an old film, but this is the recorded version that was popular back in the late 40's. The clarity of their diction and the precision of the rhythm is quite remarkable.
