Friday Morning Conversation with Joe Diffie and His Wife 

Not even a year later, he's gone. What a legend.

May he find everlasting peace. Prayers to his family.

Joe Diffie would put country singers today to shame.

Joe Diffie IS the definition of REAL COUNTRY and very humble and never has let success go to his head.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Joe face to face, but I’ve known him all of my life. Does that make sense, he’s that kind of person. Gonna miss him.

Wow....What a genuine and good guy! A true down home humble LEGEND! He will be missed.... RIP JOE . . .

Joe was so friendly. I met him in 2000. I was 13 and we were in Nashville doing a bus tour of the stars homes. He had a modest 2 story home with acreage and was outside on his riding mower himself. We took pictures and stopped and saw him. He got off the mower and came up on the bus and greeted us, it was a small group mainly seniors, I was probably the only teen. He was so sweet. My granny didn’t know who he was but she was even impressed, she didn’t like country at all.

I just heard that Joe passed away and am saddened! He was pure country with a smooth Southern sound! I'm praying for his family, RIP Joe

Watching & listening to this tonight, I teared up when he started talking about his mom, how he has a few neighbors of hers to check on her and help her out. I know her heart is broken tonight. Remembering her and his entire family in my prayers. Country music lost a true legend.... R.I.P. JOE DIFFIE

I am still in shock. Such a great artist. As a musician who is older than him, I saw him live a few years back and have listened to this guy since the 90's. One of the few real country artist left. So down to earth. Will miss you man! RIP Joe Diffie!

Gutted that Joe passed away. This man had a golden voice. RIP friend.

This brought me to tears. RIP, Joe. Love and prayers to his family.

He's one of the Great Late Ones. George Jones, Merle Haggard they'll never be another one like Joe Diffee. Prayers and Peace to you Mrs. Joe Diffie and his Children 😢🙏💜

Rest In Peace Joe Diffie. Gone but will never be forgotten. Prayers for peace, strength and comfort for the family.

One of my 90's Country heroes …..we are losing these icons and Country music sucks these days ......RIP JOE.

Just one of the most perfect voices ever. The range, clarity, and sweetness. I am just heartbroken over his loss.

His wife chose a very underrated song in Better Off Gone. But we all know now in a different perspective this man is anything but. We loved you, Joe.

Most moving song he had is "When ships that don't come in" Thanks Joe for all the great songs! R.I.P.

The first country music concert I took my late wife to was Joe Diffie. I hope he's singing to her now.

Heart Breaking!!💔 R.I.P. Joe Diffie

I've always loved his songs. You can hear his heart and soul in every song. RIP gone but never forgotten.

Prayers to Joe's family and friends. Gone way to soon. :(

Love Joe Diffie! His voice was the soundtrack to the 90's and some great times!

Joe Diffie was an exceptional artist and will be sorely missed his song Ships that don't come in is one of my favorite songs R.I.P JOE PRAYER WARRIORS sent to family and friends🙏

Such a great song...pick up man......joe was such a great country artist...a legend!!!!

Had to come back to this interview. I remember listening to this one in my car and I just loved it. This is a big loss of a great talented man. RIP 🙏🏻❤️

Love Joe Diffie, so sad he's gone WAY TO SOON! Danced to his music many times and will cherish great memories.

My condolences to his family. Joe Diffie you made a big impact on us fans with your music. Your legacy will live on forever. Rest in peace! Gods choir just got even more amazing with Joe Diffie & Kenny Rogers. 💕😢💔

I believe this is one of the last if not the last interview Joe Diffie did. Bobby and crew thank you for having him. Country music and heck all music genres have shifted some away from alot of our childhoods. Some of the best are being less thought about. No one should be faded away. New music will always come but we can not forget those who helped pave the way. Thats not to take anything away from new artist. They also work just as hard.

A recording engineer told me to send one of my songs to Joe so I did. I called his office a few months later to see if he received it. The nice lady who answered the phone flipped out when I told her who I was.She said Joe got the song and loved it. She said he played for everyone everywhere he went. I thought I was on my way finally.I was a backstage guest a few weeks later, all access.What a time! I asked Joe if he thought about recording it and he said "It is bit risque for radio", I saw my dream suddenly nose dive into the sea. At least it was great to be acknowledged and viewed as a songwriter. His band was a great bunch of fine musicians and they all knew me before I could even introduce myself! Thank you Joe wherever you are and all my best to his family.

if my life had a soundtrack, it would mostly consists of Joe Diffie songs, what a legend!!! truly underappreciated in his day...

One of the most unique voices in slurs and slangs and the way he does his Octive runs , His songs got me through some tough times..He had a song for every mood and feeling..Rest well Joe..I Loved your Music...PEACE

Still can't believe we lost Joe. Such a good guy and had so so many great 90's Country Rock songs and country ballads. songs you can sing along to. He could really deliver. Then thinking how long it's been since I've heard Joe's songs on the radio and I get mad at the industry and radio and how the industry evolves. Why they move on from those great 90's country singers and bring in the new people. Why does radio have to stop playing Diffie's music and a lot of the greats. It's the way the industry moves and the influence that we are at the mercer of radio. And radio is at the mercy of the industry and the way they feel like moving in. Hate it. God bless you Joe Diffie, rest in peace and thank you for all your music.

RIP Joe Diffie. Thank you for some of the greatest music ever.

I'm still in Shock over the news of Joe Diffie. His music will live on forever!! Joe is a true Country Music legend and will be in our Hearts forever. I have all his CDs. Thoughts and Prayers to his family during this time.❤️🙏🏻

R.I.P There are no words so heart broken. Prayers to the family 😢

RIP my brother . Thanks for all the good music.

It was very sad to here that we lost Joe Diffie. He will be missed. His music will live on. R.I.P.

I saw Joe Diffie about 2 years ago when he came to Hot Springs Arkansas for Christmas Time in Arkansas. I will never forget that. RIP Joe Diffie

Hearing about the passing of joe diffie was saddening! Tons of memories cruising dirt roads with my friends, listening to Joe diffie and just having a good time. Forever a legend, RIP Joe!

Home has always been my favorite Joe Diffie song. In fact, when I heard the news of his passing, it was the first song I looked up and listened to. Sad time. RIP Joe. You will be greatly missed.

I have always loved how humble and unassuming Joe was. Saw him in concert a bunch of times and was never even for a moment disappointed. Truly a talented man who has gone Home! RIP Joe, we'll listen to your voice forever.

Joe, you left a great void in the hearts of Country Music fans. May God bless your family.

Loved your music. RIP Joe!!!

Bobby Bones and Joe Diffie together makes a great Friday 🇺🇸🇺🇸

He will be missed in the music world rip in peace and heaven god bless his family

God bless his wife and family. He is a legend.

Thank you Bobby for this great interview. A huge loss to his family as well as Country Music and his fans! RIP Joe!

Joe Diffie actually converted me to country in ‘95 and I saw him play at The Great Mississippi Valley Fair that year and I was instantly hooked to not only his music but 90’s Country. He’s a genuine person and his music is priceless and will last forever

Rest in peace Joe Diffie and your music will be played alot more often. You were a great guy and musician.

Saw Joe, Aaron Tippin and Sammy KERSHAW together a few years ago when they were touring. Truly an incredible evening of number 1 songs.

So sad to hear of his passing, I grew up listening to him one of the greatest voices of the 90s ! 💔

The first artist I've ever seen live. He was amazing! RIP

Always remember playing his music in the car and at home turning it up and isuch good music makes me sad. But going to celebrate by playing his music! Praying for family and friends!! ❤️🙏

RIP Joe! You will be missed but your music will live forever! Be well above!

I seen Joe several years ago at our county fair. He did an awesome job and kept the crowd interested. It is definitely a loss for country music.

I’ve been a Joe Diffie fan since “Home” was his first big hit...I had the good fortune to get to talk to him on a couple of occasions. I am sad that he has passed. Such a nice guy and a great talent.

I still cannot believe he is not with us here on earth. God Bless

“Home” is still one of the all time great tunes

Thanks for all the great music Joe.

Love Joe Diffie......another one who left us to soon.😥☹️😟

What a super human being. So, so talented. RIP Joe. Gone way too soon.

Love you Joe Diffie, Always Listen to your music , Miss you.

What a great down to earth guy !!!!!! RIP brother ......

Rest in peace Joe your in my playlist as long as I can get into that studio to do my show your a Legend

RIP Joe. Legend ❤️❤️❤️🙏

It’s very sad that he’s gone seems like a awesome guy....prayers for his family

Poor joe. I’ve never shed a tear over a singer but this one got me 😰

RIP! Joe Diffie, one of my favorites will be deeply missed.

Joe was a good friend of mine. We went to the same church and my husband was the sound technician for Higher Purpose. RIP good buddy

Bobby is one of the best on-air, or even best guys in the entertainment business, that respects country's past, present and future. When he brings in the 90's country stars, it's my favorite. Those mid 80's through the 90's acts launched country into a whole new fanbase. Country acts today can thank them all for that! AND...if I were the tour managers, I'd have artist from those decades, on tour with the new acts. Just to celebrate the genre's past. A lot of great acts out there from our country past! Thanks Bobby!

That was always one of my favorites from him. His voice in that song is song deep and melodic.

RIP Joe. You're in another world now. Good luck on your next journey.

Joe diffies 3rd Rock from the sun was the first CD I ever had. Loved good brown gravy. Me and my best friend used to jam out to that song repeat over and over when we were kids. Sucks he's gone now. RIP Joe Diffie. Hope your sitting up there picking on heavens front porch with George, Merle and Waylon.

Joe Diffie your music is a memory of my childhood. The 90s.. RIP Joe Diffie -Gone, but not forgotten.

Prop him up beside the Jukebox ! Gone but never forgotten, RIP Joe Diffie

Love Joe's music. Brings back a lot of memories.
