The Supreme Jubilees

If God Had A Disco The DJ Would Be Playing California Gospel-Soul Group The Supreme Jubilees. A Band Of Brothers And Cousins The Group Was Founded In 1973 From Two Families Brothers Joe And Dave Kingsby Plus Dave’s Son David Kingsby Jr. And Keyboardist Leonard Sanders Plus His Brothers Phillips Drummer Tim Bassist And Melvin Tenor . The Sanders Clan Grew Up Singing Together In The Witness Of Jesus Christ Church In Fresno CA Where Dad Marion Was Pastor. Guitarist Larry Price–who Belonged To Neither Family–completed The Line-Up That Recorded The Group’s First–and Prophetically Only–album It’ll All Be Over. After The LP Was Pressed The Group Took Their Music On Tour First In California Where They Played With Acts Including The Gospel Keynotes The Jackson Southernaires And The Mighty Clouds Of Joy And Then On An Ill-Fated Trip To Texas. A Follow-Up Album Was Planned For 1981 But It Never Materialized Having Slept Sometimes A Dozen To A Room In Texas The Men In The Band Were Reluctant To Leave Jobs Wives And Kids For The Hardship Of The Road. The Group Simply Fizzled Out Even If The Friendships Never Did. read less
