By: Sonorous Records Inc. I'm Rolling Mary Don't You Weep Little Wooden Church In My Heart Our Prayer Brighter Day Somewhere You Go Ahead For their tight harmonies and sophisticated vocal arrangements, the Swan Silvertones are remembered as one of the greatest gospel groups of the twentieth century. Founded by coal miner Claude A. Jeter in 1938 in West Virginia, the group underwent several name changes and different lineups during its history. It also incorporated various musical styles from a cappella to jazz to various gospel music forms. Through a series of recording contracts the group released at least nine albums between 1946 and 1967. Several more recordings and compilations have been released in the years since. After Jeter's departure in 1967, the Swan Silvertones carried on with occasional performances. Jeter eventually released a solo album, but preferred to concentrate on his religious ministry in New York City. He has been cited as a vocal and lyrical influence on Sam Cooke, Al Green, Eddie Kendricks, Curtis Mayfield, and Paul Simon.
