Default R I P Harold Reid, bass singer of the Statler Brothers
He had a fantastic deep bass voice. In the early 1960s I saw him perform in person with Johnny Cash outdoors on a raised platform on the UNM tennis courts during our spring fiesta. While I was standing adjacent the side of the platform Johnny started to tip over the side. I put my arm out to stop him from falling and got a deep voiced "Thanks" from him. A wonderful memory!
