We Say...
Nobody could go from ethereal to raging as quick as Claude Jeter, who joins Rebert Harris and Ira Tucker of the Dixie Hummingbirds in the holy trinity of original quartet leaders of the '30s. Where the Soul Stirrers went on to usher a parade of lead singers through their ranks during the next seven decades, the Swans, based in Pittsburgh during their '50s & '60s heyday, were led by Jeter, who quit the group to become a minister in the late '60s. Interesting tidbit: Jeter's ad-libbed line "I'll be a bridge over deep water if you trust my name" on "Oh Mary Don't You Weep" inspired Swan fan Paul Simon's "Bridge Over Troubled Water."

They Say...
Tight harmonies, soaring high tenor lead set against hard-sung preaching to create heightened effect. Circa 1951-56.
“ The indie iTunes — Hardcore music fans are migrating to eMusic, the iTunes Music Store's cheaper, cooler cousin.”
