    There has never been any better singers than the Statler Brothers. I love their songs, especially the gospel songs.

    Jimmy is absolutely the best tenor I have ever heard. I’m obsessed with his music. The Statlers could not have selected a better replacement for Lew.

      If they could find a bass that sounds similar to Harold then they could maybe for a tribute or something but that probably won’t happen because they are enjoying there retirement, they have fulfilling the calling of their ministry
