Excellent accapella unfortunately not able to hear the voices like they should be because of the disrespectful audience. These gentlemen should have been given the respect and attention which they deserve. I wonder if a white audience would have shown that type of behaviour I bet you could have heard a pin drop. All I can say is disgusting. To those singers, awsome!! and fantastic harmornies you guys deserve a lot, lot more and thank you.

I know that Charlie Thomas and Hendricks aren't the real original members of the Original line-up.There is the early line-up with Clyde,Pinkney,those two bros.Then when they got fired that's where Hendricks, and I think his name is Dunbar Johnson comes in the pic.The real but many Drifters groups are The Drifters,Bill Pinkney's Original Drifters,Charlie Thomas' Drifters,and I think that's it.Just my oppinion so the living Original Members from any incarnation are Hendricks,Thomas,King,& Johnson.

I worked with Bill in the 70s....this is the way I remember his voice. When I heard him on the PBS Doo Wop show I was shocked to hear how his voice had changed. I later heard he wasn't well when he did that show and passed away about 6 weeks later. That video is also on UTube, you can hear a big diff. in his voice, as it wasn't thar bass voice that I remembered.

This to me, this is one of the greatest performances that I've ever heard! Bill will be missed but not forgotten.

Well actually Bobby Hendricks ia not a original member nor my buddy Charlie Thomas but Thomas is the next best closest living member

Okay from the original lineup with Clyde at the start Bill Pinkney was the living original member until his death. Then with Bill Pinkney's Drifters; Bobby Hendricks, and the other members of that group are living Original Drifters of that group. Then the second incarnation's living original Drifters are Ben E. King and Charlie Thomas.
