SPECIAL GUEST - JAMES EARL JONES

James Earl Jones was born on January 17, 1931, in Arkabutla, Mississippi. As a child, Jones developed a sever stutter, which left him extremely self-conscious and shy around other children. He refused to speak in school until a teacher helped him out of his silence during his high school years. He went to the University of Michigan to study medicine, but soon discovered acting. After college, he served in the military during the Korean War. Following his service he moved to New York City to study at the American Theatre Wing, and found a job as a janitor to make ends meet. He went on to star in a long list of highly successful plays and movies, becoming widely known as the voice of Darth Vader in the Star Wars film franchise. Jones won Tony Awards for his performances in The Great White Hope and Fences, and garnered an honorary Academy Award in 2011. James Earl Jones appears on Hail, Hail Immanuel courtsey of Array Technologies, Olympia, Washington. Learn more about his New Testament project at... www.arraytechnologies.com

Hail, Hail Immanuel is an all original Christmas cantata from the pen of Ernie Couch. The work uniquely presents a narrative of the Nativity in a variety of musical moods. Special guest, James Earl Jones, shares his great oratory skills on the project by providing corresponding Scripture passages for each of the songs. This project is designed to bring to rememberance that through the voices of prophets, saints and angels the great watershed event of eternity was proclaimed, the coming of the very essence of God to dwell in human form. Embodied in a new-born babe, lying in a feed trough, in a dingy livestock shelter, so came the great hope for mankind, the Messiah, the King of Kings, and Lord of Lord, God's ultimate gift of love and redemption.

Tid-Bits...

- Several of the songs in this cantata were first written some four decades ago with other works having been added in recent years to eventually create this finished project.

SPECIAL GUEST - PATTI PAGE

Patti Page, born Clara Ann Fowler in Claremore, OK, received her stage name while working on a Tulsa radio program sponsored by a local dairy, the Page Milk Company. Through the years, Patti Page, "The Singing Rage," has sold over one hundred million records, making her one of the top selling female artists of all time. She has garnered over one hundred hits, fifteen gold records, and four gold albums. As to her role in the history of recording, it should be noted that Patti Page, combined with the engineering and production skills of Mitch Miller, revolutionized the industry by being the first pop singer to overdub her own vocals. This event created a whole new dimension in sound recording. During the 1950s and 1960s she became the first and only female singer to have her own program on, what was at the time, all three of the major national television networks (ABC, NBC, and CBS).

EC&R is joined by former Petra members Greg X. Volz, John Lawry, and Bob Hartman on this CD. Hanging On is filled from start to finish with great music. The listener is pulled through a broad spectrum of musical moods in what can only be described as "reality" music. One moment the listener is swept up in the haunting melody and lyrics of Greg X. Volz's, self-penned, "They That Wait Upon The Lord," only to be smacked in the face with the message of Ernie's edgy, hard driving, "Knock, Knock, Knock, Knockin'." Also included are classic tunes such as, "Through It All," "The Wind Is Blowing Again," and "Put Your Hand In The Hand Of The Man." Undoubtedly the production highlight of the project is Jason's killer song, I Know That I Know." On this cut John Lawry and Bob Hartman join EC&R in hammering out the music, as Greg X. Volz simply wears-out the vocal lead. Just an awesome musical experience.

Tid-Bit - The cover shot for Hanging On is a take-off of a famous 1920s photo of ironworkers during the consturction of the the Chrysler Building in New York City. The group members were not seated on an I-beam, but rather on a picnic table in Maine. Ernie took the background skyline shot from atop the Empire State Building.

Pioneer Hymns contains fifteen classic hymns of the 1800s. Some of the songs are delibertly recorded with a raw vocal edge, and sparse insturmentation to give a somewhat austere sound indicitive of the frontier era. Other of the songs have modern, contemporary arrangements. One of the best known, and most beloved singers of traditional hymns of the church, George Beverly Shea, joined EC&R on the great old hymn, "The Haven Of Rest." It was a tremendous honor for the group to work with this icon of Chistian music. Ernie stated that as a ten-year-old boy, setting before a black and white television with a snowy picture, watching George Beverly Shea singing at one of the great Billy Graham cursades, it never entered his mind that one day, some half century in the future, he would have the previlage of recording with Mr. Shea.

Tid-Bit - When asked by Ernie about his earlist musical memory, Bev Shea shared the following. He said that when he was just a "pre-schooler" two musical evangelist came to his father's church in Canada for a series of meetings. The singers were staying with the Shea family at the church parsonage. One evening following the service, the guest singers said that they wanted to teach the Sheas a "brand new" song hot off the press. Bev said he recalled everyone gathering around the piano in the "parlor," as they were taught this new song. The title of the song was, "The Old Rugged Cross." The year was 1913. Even the classic hymns of the Church were "brand new" at some point in time!

Elevator Music is EC&R's first instrumental project, and features a wide selection of songs covering a broad spectrum of musical history. Each song, in and of itself, is a great stand alone production number. EC&R has always been a live band, with individuals who play multiple instruments, and this project showcases the group's diverse musical abilities. This is kickback music, but it will not make you go comotose. Boots Randolph put musical magic into the collection that represents his final recordings. The project is great music designed not just to be listened to, but to be enjoyed.

Ridin' Fast is comprised primarily of songs written by Ernie. However, two of Jason's songs, "He Walks With Me," and "Just Want To Say Thanks," debute on this project. The two final songs are classics from the pens of Irvin Berlin and Ronnie Hinson. It should be noted that George Younce, best known for his years with the Blue Ridge Quartet and the Cathedral Quartet, had originally agreed to be EC&R's special guest on Ridin' Fast, but due to health problems he was unable to record his part on, "He Keeps A Blessin'." At that point, country music legend George Jones graciously stepped in and did a killer job on the nostalgic ballad, "And They Sang."

Going Higher is EC&R's first Grammy nominated project. Incorporated within the recording is unique studio experimention, and eclectic song selection, both of which have become hallmarks for the group. The project represents the firming-up of what has become known as the EC&R sound. Ernie's self-penned, "Pilgrim Way," featuring Jason on lead vocal, was turned into the group's most popular early music video. Another Ernie composition, "Wait For Me," became EC&R's most requested song from the Going Higher project. James Blackwood not only joined the group as a guest on this project, but also did a great interview with Jason at the National Quartet Convention, that was included as a bonus feature on EC&Rs, First Decade, DVD.

Tid-Bit - The background white noise on the project's "Countdown" cut was produced by Ernie blowing into a long cardboard wrapping paper tube. To quote Ernie, "To create to live, is invention. To live to create, is art." It still remains to be determined whether blowing into a cardboard tube is invention or art!

SPECIAL GUEST - JAKE HESS

When Elvis was asked, early in his career, who his favorite singer was, he quickly replied, "Jake Hess." Jake garnered fans both nationally and internationally with his uniquie vocals punchated with "eye-wallin, finger jabbing" body language. Hovie Lister often introduced Jake by referring to him as being, "often immitated, but never duplicated," and such was the case. Jake is best remembered for his years with the Statesmen Quartet, his formation of the Imperials, work with the Master V, and for his part in the successful Gaither Homecoming video series. Jake had a great personality and sense of humor. Following the first lay down of his track, when recording, "He's My Friend," for EC&R's Taking Flight project, he was asked if he wanted to take another run at his part. With a big grim, Jake replied, "Nope. It might just get worse!" With Jake there was no, "worse." He was definately a singer's, singer.

MCG Records - Released 1996, assigned to NURI Records (N108CD) - 1999
Recorded at Sweet Sixteen Studio, Nashville, TN & HIS Studio, Hendersonville, TN

Taking Flight is EC&R's debut project. The group had previously recorded several demos at various Music Row studios. One of those cuts, "If the Lord Wasn't Walking By My SIde," recorded at Ben Speer's Sweet Sixteen Studio, is included on this project. The balance of songs were recorded in the HIS Studio, at the former Conway Twitty complex, in Hendersonville, TN. Early on, EC&R determined that each project would embody three unique characteristics - eclectic song selections, an iconic special guest, and creative graphics. This is the most traditional southern gospel project the group has released. Taking Flight features a half-and-half blend of classic, quartet songs inter- spursed with a broad spectrum of compositions from Ernie Couch. The group recorded several cover songs made popular by such groups as the Blackwood Brother, the Statemen and the Happy Goodman Family. Among the songs written by Ernie is one of his early works, "He'll Be There," that had been recorded by the Plainsmen Quartet in 1969. For over five years, Ernie's self-penned, "A Tree of Life For Me," was EC&R's most requested song. As to the special guest for the project, Jake Hess joined the group on, "He's My Friend." Jake attend church with most of the group members, and was a mentor to and an encouragement in the group's formation.

Tid-Bit - In keeping with the project's title, the group members donned hot leather jackets on a scorching, ninety-six degree day in August, 1995 to pose during the cover photo shoot at Nashville International Airport. No one got cold that day!
