When I was in my twenties I got busted for drugs n had to move back home with my parents! And I had a job that I had to drive my daddy van! And this cassette was stuck in the cassette player! It help me get through a very rough time of shame! God brought me out n I never dealt with drugs again! Thank you Jesus!
I come from Earle, Arkansas and I know what it's like to be poor. We went to bed hungry a lot of nights. We had pinto beans every night for dinner, except on the weekends we had fried chicken or spaghetti. Once in a while we had pork on holidays. But we knew God and He was GREAT to us. He brought us a mighty long way. I was sick and momma said the doctor told her there was nothing else He could do for me. So, she took me to the Pastor and he prayed for me and God healed me!!! Thank you God, our Father in Heaven, Holy is His name, Jesus and the Holy Ghost!!
This album deserves an oscar for its performance and delivery. This album and live in Memphis ll change the whole quartet industry as we know it now....... Harvey is the father of the new age quartet music..... He really deserves a movie
This song speaks to me. Grew up in a three room house, not a three bedroom room house but a three room house. Outhouse in the back, and a water pump to get water for the dishes and to drink. Now I live in a three bedroom three bathroom house. I KNOW the Lords been good to me. Not to mention this song is the jam. Anbody know him as a rock!
This reminded me so much of my grandma!!! She use to play this every morning!!! This brought tears to my eyes y’all!!! This is what real gospel was all about! It made you feel something!!!
This song brings tears to my eyes i sit and look around on how far God has brung me, sometimes i don't deserve the blessings that has been coming my way. But i thank God for being so good to me, he's been so good to me i can't say it enough!!!
I'm from Mississippi These guys are like family, and I saw them in person and got a chance to talk to Daddy and Harvey, Paul, Rob and all the guys, u want some good gospel let me know, Check out Georgia Mass choir, Jesus is my doctor. Mississippi Mass Choir with Moses Burks.
This was my dad's favorite song. We played it at his funeral. I miss him all the time & hearing this song makes me feel like he still here. #RestInHeavenDaddy You will forever live thru me.
This whole album gives memories of my childhood. Going to church. Meeting different folks. My childhood was awesome I may say. We didn't have much but we had God, each other and love.
Me and my little brother used to sing this song in church. I was 10 years old. They wanted us to sing this everywhere we went. The crowd would stand up singing every time.
Amen the. Cantons rules. They are one of my favorite ledgendary quartets. God bless them.they are one of the best quartets on the planet. For. Real. Believe it.
This is my story, growing up in Spartanburg, SC, however the Lord has been good to me. The tells me that my latter days are better than my formal days. I know who God is, i have a relationship with Christ, i've got what i need in my life (a good spiritual women), my family is in tact, a good church family and know i'm able to enjoy retirement. God been good to me.
I was in Revival with them some years ago at my church. When they left i was cleaning the floors and the drummer had splinters everywhere. He was destroying drum sticks when the Holy Ghost got on him.
3 decades later, and the anointing is as strong now as it was when I first saw it. From beginning to end it was/is very apparent that the Lord's hand was all over this legendary live recording. Respect and RIP to Mr. Harvey Watkins Sr. (Dec. 5, 1929 - Nov. 16, 1994).
Harvey Watkins at his best; I love The Canton Spirituals and watching them perform this song especially. Harvey Watkins was and still is one of the best front men in the music industry. God bless The Canton Spirituals.

Pops beat me Everytime he caught me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 then one day he said boi here u go.. u can have it.. u sound waaaaay better then me lmao and I start playing at church and this Particular Song "Poor Family" was the 1st church song my Big Cuz Rulon Powers back in Alabama taught me how to play.. and he is apart of the reason why I still play 4 churchs today 🤞😎

My oldest brother H.M. Harp Jr. Always song this song at the singing's that took place right in the heart of Tildenville Missionary Baptist Church!!!❤❤❤❤
I remember my grandmother dancing to this song back in the day. She'll be turning 90 this year. She was born in 1930 so I know she can relate to this song. I bet if I played it now she would get up and cut a rug.
Amen to this song, because God sure have been good to me. I am 77 yrs old. I still get around pretty good for my age, riding my 18 sppeds bicycle. All I can say is to put Jesus in your life. Put your trust in Jesus and see what will happen.
When I was in my twenties I got busted for drugs n had to move back home with my parents! And I had a job that I had to drive my daddy van! And this cassette was stuck in the cassette player! It help me get through a very rough time of shame! God brought me out n I never dealt with drugs again! Thank you Jesus!
That's quite a testimony!

In the Music Industry period, their fan base is huge, From black, white to Hispanics. One of my favorite groups!

The guys playing lead and bass guitar need a raise they laid that pocket down in concrete creating that whole vibe

This whole album gives memories of my childhood. Going to church. Meeting different folks. My childhood was awesome I may say. We didn't have much but we had God, each other and love.
When the Canton Spirituals came to Houston back in the 90s we got free tickets Harvey, Dwayne and Masey use to stay at our house
Me and my little brother used to sing this song in church. I was 10 years old. They wanted us to sing this everywhere we went. The crowd would stand up singing every time.

I love this group,and how God anoints the songs he gave them to sing.
My all time favorite gospel song. Anytime I’m down I come to this song. “Anybody know about The Rock….” Life changes here!
I love seeing Harvey Jr. singing with his dad in these videos! And I really enjoy the way his father used to look at him when sang.
T. Atkins
His father was very proud of him and he was proud to be able to sing with his father. I love the group and the live instruments!
