Most people remember these two gentlemen from their days with the Plainsmen and/or the Stamps Quartet.
This picture was taken before that time.
Who are these men and what is the name of their group when this picture was taken?

Easmon Napier and Don Randall.

That is Easmon Napier and Don Randall.
I have seen the group pic this was cut out of but cannot remember the name of the group.
My memory, "its gets shorter as the years go bye."

Thank you Dean, then I`ll say The All-American Quartet.

The All American Quartet is correct. Thanks, Dean and James.

Isn't that a great old Statesmen song?

Anybody want to take a guess as to who that tenor could be?

Great picture, John. Bill Shaw was the tenor in that group. I think the picture was taken in early 1952. It would be 5 more years before Easmon would play for a really great tenor!!

Bill Shaw was their tenor, and he later went to The Blackwood Brothers.
