Experience, faith and steadfastness all come to mind when one tries to describe Good News! Tenor Jerry Fairchild, a member of the Sidewinders who won the Gold in 1964, has been barbershopping for 42 years and lives in Redlands, CA. Lead Joe Mazzone sang with The Regents who won in 1974, has been b-shopping for 29 years, and lives in Punta Gorda, Florida. baritone Dale Deiser has been quartetting for 47 years and sang with Mark IV, 1969 champs; he lives in San Antonio, TX. Bass Mo rector has 2 Gold Medals, 1958 with the Gay Notes and 1969 with Mark IV. How do they rehearse and record with so much distance between them? Love of the Lord and barbershop harmony, and a desire to give back gets them to travel nearly 10,000 miles for each rehearsal and recording session. No surprises in their song selection, 'I Will Sing The Wondrous Story,' the first song on Vol. I & II, sums up what Good News! is all about, sweet, deep harmony and feeling, and singing the Lord's praises. Some of our favorites: 'Amazing Grace,' 'In The Garden,' 'Precious Lord,' and 'Ain't-A-That Good News.' It surely is! |
