The Glaser Brothers recording of Faded Love is one of the greatest moments in country music right up there with Jones 'He Stopped Loving Her Today, Robbins 'El Paso', Cash's 'I Walk the Line', Hanks 'Cheatin' Heart', Willie's 'Crazy" and Kristofferson's 'Help Me Make it through the Night' - yes the list is almost endless - but guess I'm saying this is as good as it gets. The Glasers classic break up like the Everly Bros did not exactly help their career, but that's all part of country music and rock & roll ... youTube does a great job in preserving this history
Ohhh. I have never heard anything so beautiful. Best version I have ever heard. These guys should have been at the top of every chart, award, etc. Tompall makes me cry when he sings. Thanks to RUclips . I have every CD I could find. More, More. Cant' get enough of them. Tompall was really blessed with his voice. They truly are the most beautiful voices this side of heaven. I agree with June. .
Oh man that fiddle and steel will melt you!!! The voices and harmony are impeccable!! What an awesome performance on a Classic song in tribute to a Great band and Band Leader!!
All I can say is...WOW!...This is such a FANTASTIC version of this song!...Hard to believe it only reached #22 on the charts back in July 1971...Was was country radio thinking back then?...It should've charted much, much higher!...I personally enjoyed the homage to the great Bob Wills & the Texas Playboys!...Take care! :)
You go dvdman--need more guys like you who don't feel the need for profanity to express themselves.And your choice of music is excellent.Their voices were so beautiful.Wish we could bring this music back.Country music today is getting so far away from what it was when they just got up there and sang,didn't need to dance and twist to get the song out, and didn't need all the orchestration.They had to be able to sing back then.Now they have machines that make them sound good.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOF.......Now this is it....the very BEST OF THE BEST in sibbling harmony.....Been their #1 fan since they started....I do have this VERY RECORD that this is from.....wow...I use to play this to death and back...as a kid....I have quite a collection of original records and items from their earlier days....This music back earlier of theirs I could NEVER tire of....what a sound all of their own TOMPALL and the Glaser Brothers...THE BEST of all time in my opinion....now their nephews THE BROTHERS GLASER....Oh my it is amazing how much they too sound like their famous uncles....what a treasure........ Thanks for this post....such a Valued treasure down memory lane for me.... Ken from Orlando, Florida, USA PS: Not sure why they were so very UNDERRATED in their time....there was NO ONE even close to their unique blend of sibbling sound.....GOD BLESS THEM...
Thank you for keeping close watch on your channel. Tompal and the Glaser Brothers music should be enjoyed by everyone, no matter what their age, so when one has to plod through the sewer, to hear this beautiful music, it makes it not so enjoyable, especially if you want your young people to hear and appreciate this wonderful music, but don't care to have them view other peoples' potty mouths.
I remember watching Bob Wills on TV many years ago, and now to hear the mellow voices of Tompall and the Glaser Brothers singing it, well how can you beat that.....not!
I don't know how many singers and bands I've heard this song done by, and all of them good, this is the best! Even better than Bob Wills and I loved Bob Wills,Being born and raised in Tx. And being a country music lover since birth, I had to love him but no one can measure up to The Glasers on anything! I've never heard anyone like them!!!
The most beautiful rendition I’ve ever heard and the first time I heard it was on a juke box in Roscoe Texas at 12, it was an instrumental then on that record. But Bob Wills put it out in 1950.
What are you talking about -- profanity? In Faded Love? In this video? There is no profanity here whatsoever - just perhaps the greatest country/western song ever and very arguably the best version of it ever recorded. Hearing that lone fiddle gives me goose bumps every time. What a song by John Wills, Bob Wills' father and what a rendition by the great Glaser Brothers.
Still listening to my all time MOST FAVORITE sibling Harmony Trio WOOOF....and this is the BEST of FADED LOVE.....still a great closeness to the BOB WILLS version...I have this album and the single .....THE BEST...
Singing all his life, remember those great Marty Robbins albums thru' to owning the studio that was home to Waylon's Outlaws, Tompall developed nodes on his vocal cords. 'So I just learned to sing around 'em' he once told me. Unique voice, private but generous character, the brothers fought, but couldn't they sing!
Like a lot of country music fans I did not appreciate the Glaser brothers as I do now. The saddest words of tongue and pen are, "What might have been".
I love those Glaser Brothers and this is such a beautiful song. Thanks for posting it. Does everyone know that Amazon and other places still sell their CD's?
Although I'm in the category that rates Patsy Cline's version as the best, Tompall and the Glaser brothers definitely do this song justice. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Sorry, that person was not talking about the song. there was a post made before theirs and it had profanity and i deleted it because i don't want profanity here or any of my site...need all the young people to listen to this music to help keep it alive ty
hard to believe thy never made it into the country hall of fame ,when you hear some of the rubbish that made it into it .this music is far better than most .go raibh maith agat ,dvdman.

Other Cimmaron Boys bandmembers unknown. BTW - They recorded San Antonio Rose too that same day (Feb 17, 1971) but it has never been released. Keith Coleman and Johnny Gimble played harmony fiddle parts on the original Bob Wills version recorded for MGM on April 27, 1950 with Bob Wills playing the main lead fiddle by himself.
in February of 2017 Chuck Glaser of The Glaser Brothers released an album 'That's When I Love You the Most' on iTunes, Amazon and CD Baby --Check it out!!! While you are there check out The Glaser Brothers' EP album 'Rehearsal Sessions, May 1972' released in 2016.
Other than Tommy Duncan's vocals on the original version, this version has been placed at the top of The Smithsonian Institute's American/Folk/Category
How could anyone not like this song? And these singers? Must not have ever heard country music before country music was crap! The ever amazing Tompall, with that beautiful voice, and the Glaser brothers were simply the best ever. And this song is a standard.
Ohhh. I have never heard anything so beautiful. Best version I have ever heard. These guys should have been at the top of every chart, award, etc. Tompall makes me cry when he sings.

One of greatest under-rated groups of all time!!! Todays country dont even have clue off what greatness the had!!! Jim Martin
Doesn't get any better than these guy's ... I miss them forever!

There will never be another Tompall and the Glaser Brothers. Great harmony.
I cry when I hear this old song. My dad used to sing this when he was working on our farm.

I could listen to the Glaser Brothers forever and never grow tired of the beautiful sound
14 people don't like this! What are they - deaf? This is the most inspiring song recorded in many a year and the harmonies are outstanding!

How could any country fan not like this great recording ?.
No one does this one better,Such beautiful harmony
This is by far the best version of this song to ever be recorded.

A real classic, where The Glaser Bros put their outstanding harmony in it...
they should be the country hall of fame.
From Texas, They say Tompall has gone to his reward. THANK YOU for making this recording way back when I was a kid! RIP
A Very good group and a GREAT Song. I love this old COUNTRY Stuff.

I loved this song and considering who is singing it, It s my new favorite, next to ALL the Tompall songs I love
Thanks for the comment and the listen!
I don't know how many singers and bands I've heard this song done by, and all of them good, this is the best! Even better than Bob Wills and I loved Bob Wills,Being born and raised in Tx.

Classic song by classic group. TP and Glaser were awesome. "Lovin her was easier...." one of my all time favs.
The great Tompall Glaser. May his music be played forever. RIP
there was never a song they couldn't as good or better than the original!
The Glaser Brothers had an unbelievable and incredibly beautiful sound! The most amazing harmony EVER!
Thanks for posting this classic havent heard it since 79 when I left WPVA....played it lots of Sunday mornings back then....
Best version of a great song.
This is one of the country songs of Elvis Presley that I love.
I thought I’d heard everything Elvis sang, I’ll have to check RUclips for Faded Love.

The amazing voice of Tompall. There's nothing more to say!
BRINGS BACK GOOD OLD MEMORIES.
Still listening to my all time MOST FAVORITE sibling Harmony Trio WOOOF....and this is the BEST of FADED LOVE.....still a great closeness to the BOB WILLS version...I have this album and the single .....THE BEST...
R.I.P. Tom, we're going to miss you and your music.

Great listening! I envy you since you got to be there! Thank you!
Like a lot of country music fans I did not appreciate the Glaser brothers as I do now.
The saddest words of tongue and pen are, "What might have been".
Thanks for the listen and the comment!
I like them from the get go.
Not much to say absolutely beautiful and should be in the hall of fame wow
I love those Glaser Brothers and this is such a beautiful song. Thanks for posting it. Does everyone know that Amazon and other places still sell their CD's?
My all time favorite song of all genders!
...The Glaser Boys can sing any song they choose too and do it justice.....
Although I'm in the category that rates Patsy Cline's version as the best, Tompall and the Glaser brothers definitely do this song justice. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Thanks for this one
Great, I love it and remember it well.
Bob Wills & Texas Playboys still Americas No 1 western band. This band is immortal. "Faded Love" greatest ballad ever recorded. mosrite60
They could take anyone's hit song and make it even better!
Sorry, that person was not talking about the song. there was a post made before theirs and it had profanity and i deleted it because i don't want profanity here or any of my site...need all the young people to listen to this music to help keep it alive ty

LGreat Group that backed Marty Robbins. Nobody does it better.

I know!! What is not to like about this all time country favorite??? The only other artist that truly holds a candle to this version is Patsy Cline!!
How could anyone not like this song? And these singers? Must not have ever heard country music before country music was crap! The ever amazing Tompall, with that beautiful voice, and the Glaser brothers were simply the best ever. And this song is a standard.
+Marilyn Sparnicht marilyn: NOBODY holds a candle to the patsy cline version. period. end of story.
I stand corrected!! Patsy Cline is the gold standard!!!!
@srmeyer123 I WAS TALKING ABOUT THE COMMENTS. Think first
A good version but Ray Price and Willie's version is the best hands down!!
@ultrabrougham Mixed this up with another comment. SORRY
What year was this recorded? Early 70's?
1970
What's wrong with me, there are 9 now that don't like it!!!
@thadaow It would have more meaning to everone without the profanity.
Ohhh. I have never heard anything so beautiful. Best version I have ever heard. These guys should have been at the top of every chart, award, etc. Tompall makes me cry when he sings.
