Biography
Not much is well known about the first times of the King’s Men quintet, an old-time Southern gospel act who aren’t to become confused with the Portland, OR-based garage area music group the Kingsmen (the music group whose enduring “Louie, Louie” survives today among the all-time frat rock and roll classics). The King’s Males were founded like a quartet by Big Jim Hamill in 1955 and located in Ashland, NC. Two additional users, Theodore J. Twiggs and Eugene R. Smith, had been outlined as songwriters on what ended up being their just record of your day, “Don’t State You’re Sorry,” released in March 1957 to small fanfare. Soon after this solitary, two of the five users were drafted in to the Equipped Services. A couple of years later on, the King’s Males were together once again and back action and handled a profession that ultimately spanned three years (’50s, ’60s, and ’70s). Recordings continuing to flow, mainly gospel favorites, however the King’s Men’s actual strength appeared to lie within their performances; they’re best kept in mind for flourishing tenors and resounding baritones propelling an authentic gospel prowess. The group continuing in to the ’70s, with fresh members changing retiring King’s Males on the way.
