The lead singer, is a bass. Are you referring to the bass singer leading the song? I hear the baritone part in the background.
Am I the only one to find a similarity between this gospel, and the melodic line of "Mercedes-Benz", by Janis Joplin ?
Thank you for your channel. Music for the soul
Wow. Thank you so much for uploading this! It was a very comfortable song to sing, for a beginner. Just the way "Laudate omnes gentes" is. Thank you!

is there any way to obtain a high quality audio file of this and other recordings?
I am pretty sure Jubilee Quartet is the name of the group singing this. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

"Jubilee quartet" is a generic description of a close-harmony African American singing style, and was used by Lomax to describe the group in his notes.
