THE SWAN SILVERTONES Move Up (2004 UK 28-track digitally remastered CD album - The a cappella quartet Four Harmony Kings was created by tenor Claude Jeter in 1938 in Coalwood, WV, but the name was changed to the Swan Silvertones when theybegan a 15-minute radio show sponsored by the Swan Bakery Company on the Knoxville station WBIR in 1942. They developed a national reputation during their contract with King Records from 1946 to 1951, recording some 21 recordings [mostly in the jubilee gospel style] including 'I Cried Holy' and 'Go Ahead'. They joined Specialty Records from 1951 to 1953, but issued only four singles [in a more contemporary style] before they were dropped by that label. The early group had lead singers Jeter and Solomon Womack, tenors Robert Crenshaw and John Manson, baritone John H. Myles, and bass Henry K. Bossard - this collection gathers together gospel classics recorded for Vee Jay Records, presented in sealed digipak sleeve)
