Jackson, MS. February 25, 2007-Sunday, February 25, 2007, gospel music lost one of its own, Howard Hunt, aka 'Slim' of Slim and the Supreme Angels. Elder Hunt was the Pastor at the Deliverance Temple Church of God in Christ in Dillon, SC and an active member of the legendary gospel quartet group, Slim and the Supreme Angels. He passed away following a serious illness.

As a member of one of Malaco Records top gospel quartet groups, Hunt will be sorely missed. "It is sad to lose another legend of gospel music," states D.A. Johnson, Director of Malaco Records' Gospel Division. "The roots of gospel music are embedded in the quartet sound and Slim has been a large part of that history. His new album, The Judgement, releases next week and is part of our Yes! Quartet campaign. Though he will be missed on the 2007 tour, his music will stand to honor him in his passing."

Born in 1935 to sharecroppers, Hunt learned early that to own two pairs of shoes meant the year was a good one. His family worked hard to make ends meet and by the time Hunt was seventeen, he knew that the meager life of a farmer was not what he wanted for his future. At seventeen, Hunt left his hometown of Walnut Grove, MS and moved on to New Orleans to work on a sightseeing boat called The Steamer President. He later worked at a plumbing company and in a candy factory. There was, however, one constant in all of his journeys and jobs through life: music.

At the tender age of four, Hunt began his singing career, as many gospel artists do, in church. With a song in his heart, he made his way north to Milwaukee and through several jobs, wondering what the Lord had for him, not realizing that he would be called to minister full-time through gospel music and later as a preacher.

It was in Milwaukee that Hunt first began singing with The Supreme Angels, a group that he would stay with throughout his fifty-four year singing career; as members came and went, he held fast. The quartet sound of the Supreme Angels was embraced by fans and the group had several hit records, including Shame On You, which went gold in 1974, Lord Bring Me Down, and Death & The Beautiful Lady. The Judgement features the hits "Shame On You" and "Death & The Beautiful Lady" (Howard Hunt, composer) as well as many other originals, never before released.

Slim & The Supreme angels live by the motto: Take Jesus for your partner and all your journeys will be safe. Pastor Hunt said that he would never retire and that as long as he was living, he would proclaim the gospel. Fortunately, his proclamations will live on forever through the excellent legacy he has left behind in the gospel quartet music of Slim & The Supreme Angels.

This song brings back memories of riding with my mother at 10yrs old. She drove a 1973 Mercury Grand Marquis in powder blue metallic with rust on the hood and trunk along with a cracked up navy vinyl roof. The radio was silver with two knobs, surrounded by maple woodgrain trim. It was tuned to the local AM gospel station (WIDU 1600). Due to the station's low radio wave frequency there was a hum and whine in the background of every song.....LOL. I remember looking at Mama funny when Rev. Hunt mentioned the "eye glasses on your face" line in reference to death being on his way. I'd been wearing glasses since 20 months old so it kinda took me by surprise. She just laughed at me. We're still here at 70 and 35 yrs old and God has blessed us beyond our wildest dreams! Thank you for this clip!

@ Lamont Graham The lead singer n founder of the group died March 6, 2007, I've always loved this group, when I was a kid I got to see them live in concert,@ that time they were out of Milwaukee, in later years he moved to the south, I'm thinking North Carolina, Growing up we belonged to a pretty large church and we had lots of gospel concerts there, My mother and dad use to participate in selling the tickets so I was blessed to attend some of them free,or for half price.
