BLACKWOOD BROTHERS

Considered to be one of the finest Gospel quartets ever formed and certainly one of the most famous, The Blackwood Brothers Quartet is synonymous with quality productions and perfect harmony.  While the members changed a little over the years, the most famous group was made of James Blackwood, Cecil Blackwood, Bill Shaw, J. D. Sumner (the lowest bass ever), and Wally Varner on piano.

Also see the Masters V and J. D. Sumner & The Stamps.
