Tompall and the Glaser Brothers Medley
Музыка
The idea for this medley came back in the early 60's when the brothers were working a small club in Toronto. The people in the club were more interested in drinking than listening to music, and they were getting absolutely no response when they played their own songs. So Tompall decided to start playing every song he knew one after another with no break in between -- as they wouldn't know the difference. When they would come to a high part in the song that Jim knew Tompall couldn't hit, he would step in and sing it. They finished the songs that way, constantly trading off the microphone with Chuck coming in on the harmonies, and the crowd loved it. After that night, they worked up this medley and it has always been a crowd favorite.

You gentlemen were amazing. Sadly missed in today’s music world. Rest in Peace, Tompall, Jim, and Chuck.
Classic performance by the much missed Glaser Brothers doing their trademark switching from Tompall in the lower range to Jim for the high notes, back and forth with perfect timing. No other singers did their mid line switches. Glad Chuck recovered from his cerebral aneurysm to get back on stage. Blows away the goat vomit mislabeled country music that Nashville is inflicting on us nowadays.
The Glaser brothers are an American treasure... They were in a league of their own....
Most underrated group ever. Their pure voices and harmony are some of the best I've ever heard in all my years.
Their harmony was the best and their talent was indisputable. How in the name of God can the Country Music Hall of Fame ignore them? They've got everyone else beat to blazes!!!

Love these guys and the way they work one mic is an art in it’s self, they never miss a beat!!! Where the hell did country music go ???
How can you beat this kind of harmony? These fellers were perfectly tuned into each other.
I remember this so well I really love this music!
Just plain beautiful !
The True Brothers😊 😊 😊
"Their interchanging words is something I've never heard before. It takes real talent to do that so perfectly.
Amazing best voices ,they outshine all of the top country stars ,can t believe they were not more famous
They are so great, they had such a great teacher, Marty Robbins. They were in such a high class! So much talent!
Great music!!!Now that’s real country, I love country I could listen all day

The only one I can think of is Crosby stills and Nash. As a musician I'm a brutal critic but I love these disciples.

You can't get any better than this.They all sing so good but Tompall has really got it They are the best at harmonizing. You just can't get any better than this. Thanks for uploading this video..
From left to right Jim, Chuck and Tompall. They have great voices and great hair!!
THEY SOUND SO CLOSE , SINGING , YOU WOULD THINK IT'S ONE PERSON...THEN HARMONY,,,IMMACULATE...!!!...
Such beautiful voices. RIP Jim Glaser.
I meant Chuck Glazer, when my Dad was pursuing, yodeling, singing, songs he wrote,plus commercials, like the 1956 Dodge Texan, on you tube. MR. Chuck Glazer. Had near death experience, he was glad to just eat spaghetti, with me and parents, dad was Bob Quinn.
Wow, they still melt my heart every time I listen to them. No one even comes close to their music!

I THINK HE WAS THE CAUSE OF THEM BREAKING UP
Now I have purchased a second set to just KEEP!!!!
This is so bloody good singing......... All three of them. I was lucky to meet and speak to Jim in person. Years back, as he visits The Netherlands.
Family harmony, you just can't beat it.
The group were very talented and as I'm listening to them you can see how good they were. I met Tompall a few years ago and had a chat with him, very nice man.
Amazing harmony, You will not hear better.
No auto tune needed in those days. True masters.
Perfect harmony, just perfect. I never tire of listening to them sing. They simply were and always will be the best!
First time I’ve seen this and absolutely fantastic
These old songs are wonderful ,their harmony is absolutely beautiful. Most of today's so called country is not good.
Love this. Love to watch them, especially Jim.❤️
What a cool story. Little did they know how loved this medley would become…insane genius at work that night!!!🌼
They are the best group that there is or will every be on the planet HARMONY at its best
Just perfect!
Still unrivalled the most wonderful harmonies, never stop listening their wonderful voices, heaven is embraced with their wonderful harmonies 🙏🙏🙏
these guys are so awesome...I cant believe I've never seen them before! I'm totally mezmerized with this video. I cant stop staring at there faces and listen to how beautifully they harmonize and just SING! I'm totally smitten with them lol..seriously...I could listen to these brothers all day long. I HAVE to find some of their CD'S!
So so talented and never had the respect they should have had .but that's Nashville for ya lol
I play this every day.
They are for sure the Masters of Harmony. They´re simply the best.,,
Makes me happy.
I saw them live many years ago. Absolutely top notch.
So glad that we have such legendary artists on video to watch .That's the only way today to see great music performed is video of years past performances because you'll never see a performance such as that in today's music.
That is Amazing
Simply wonderful voices... perfect harmony. I bounce back & forth, which voice is my favorite of the 3 brothers, still can't decide after all these years!

These guys are the best.
Wonderful to see and hear the brothers reunited, reminds me of the the Everley brothers makeup, you won,t be sorry lads Your parents will be happy.Stan
BRILLANT LOVE IT
As good as it gets.
Love this! Great story.
Plain and simple the best video on KZread.
This is the best version of this medley on KZread from the most awarded C&W group of the 70's. I believe it was recorded at the International Festival of Country Music at Wembley, England in 1984 but I'll check and come back and edit if I'm wrong.
These are so good and in harmony.
I love their eyes and smiles when they do their 'bantering' back and forth. Thank you Weeze1124. I just love them!

+Daisy Flowers.That's probably right, Daisy, from what I hear, but there's no doubt in some of their smiles and looks that at the time of this filming they were still having fun together. On the video of their 'last performance' their feelings for each other was not so good, sad! I haven't known of them until 4 or 5 months ago and I'm makiing up for lost time. I love them and their voices!

Really fantastic love this medley

💞🎼🎶 Tompall and Brothers Greatest Ever
Listen to them switch singers in the middle of Word.
Cant find this kind of music, and equil harmony except from family.
These guys are great! Love those harmonies!
I’m proud to say Jim and I were pen pals for about 5 years. Sadly we stopped corresponding around 2011. I miss him!
What ever "it" is, Tompall had it.
WOW WOW WOW!!! best of the best!! We attended their concerts twice one at local high school auditorium the second at county fair stadium!! Best of all time greats ever!! Jim Martin

Ive watched this at least a hundred times...those voices!!!
Nine people don't like this? What's wrong with them? Must be tone deaf. They were the best ever; wish they were still around.
Thank you, Weeze, for the great video and explanation. I never tire of watching these guys sing. I get chills every time Jim steps in and starts hitting the higher notes. I'm sure glad we have these videos to remind us of how great these guys were.
simply fantastic love this thank you for this
They sure get along!
Love this Song
they are totally brilliant
No family ever sang better.
One of my favorites from my youth
Awesome!!!!!
I found their CD's on e-bay!!! Bought them all!!!
Damn. These guys really WERE that good! 😲 Another great country brother group who were should have been inducted in the C.M.H.O.F. long ago.
RIP Tompall
Great to see a new posting. I had the honour of seeing this medley only once at a Wembley performance many years ago and it never fails to raise a smile. Great notes too - Thanks a million.
