This lineup of birds was pretty much unbeatable: Walker and Ira Tucker on leads, Howard Carroll on guitar, James Davis singing tenor and basso extraordinaire William Bobo. Rounding out the harmony is one Beechie Thompson, grandfather of Ahmir Thompson aka Questlove. Enjoy “The Little Wooden Church.” | Eli Paperboy Reed | Facebook
