Oakwood College Years
In 1980, Claude V. McKnight III|Claude McKnight formed an a cappella quartet, The Gentlemen's Estates Quartet, at Oakwood College, a Seventh-Day Adventist college in Huntsville, Alabama, where he was a freshman. He auditioned fellow students for the hobby group. The Gentlemen were rehearsing in a campus bathroom (later said to be in Peterson Hall), getting ready for a performance, when Mark Kibble walked by and heard them singing. He joined the harmonizing, adding a fifth part, and ended up singing with them onstage that very night.<ref>[http://www.singers.com/take6.html Primarily A Capella: Take 6]</ref> Mark later invited Mervyn Warren to join the group.
