The word classic can be used in many different ways. When I think of classic, I'm thinking older; music that predates me, but I still love. For me, that means old time Southern Gospel, which I was exposed to a lot as a kid, and saw a resurgence when I was in college. In that genre, there is no finer example than The Statesmen quartet of the late 50's and early 60's. They changed members a lot over the years, but this is the lineup that always resonated with me.
