Imperials w/Jake Hess
Boy, the history of the Imperials goes way, way back. Beginning in the 60's, they started as a gospel quartet, even backing up the king, Elvis Presley for a while. The group has gone through many personnel changes, music styles and lead singers such as Terry Blackwood and Sherman Andrus . Original member, Armond Morales, is still with the group. Perhaps their best known line-up was when Russ Taff joined them in 1977 for the Sail On album. With this album, the music began hinting strongly at a pop sound. But it wasn't until the production genius of Michael Omartian on One More Song that finally established this group as a bonafide contemporary group. Some of the later albums are available on CD. DH
