Love your apple story...your amazing....when my hubby passed, knew he was going...all of a sudden breathing stopped laboring, and big smile came on his face..he was gone, i knew he saw the Lord...it is undisgribable isnt it?❤
I loved Jimmy from the first note I heard him sing with the Statlers. Got to see Brothers of the Heart for the first time last month. Absolutely an incredible concert. ❤
I have always loved Jim Fortune singing ANY song at anytime! I miss the Statler Brothers and all the Saturday nights I spent listening to them singing my favorite songs; Crystal Gale made the show so much fun to watch as well. Loved them singing gospel songs around the organ too.
What a wonderful experience to have when your mother passed---You knew she was with the Lord---Then she left the note for you.---You have been blessed---I just love to hear you sing---God bless you and your family---Linda from Oregon
Love Jimmy's talents, his heart, and his faith in God. Amazing Grace has long been one of my favorites. It was the last song that we sang to my dad as he lay dying. He was not awake, but I feel as if his spirit could hear us, and he was singing along as he journeyed to a higher plane.
At 11:43 on the wall picture, is the name of my friends brother who was killed in Vietnam. I remember the day clearly as yesterday. To see that really brings chills to me. R.I.P. Richie. I also have a cousin on that wall.
We all love these "Extras" that you do to pay tribute to so many wonderful entertainers Bill. But I think you do your followers a disservice by excluding the song portion of these interviews. We are glued to the spoken word leading up to each song (More than a name on a wall for example) and then we never hear the song portion. Just one man's opinion Bill for what it's worth.
Thank you, @427lucky, for your comment. We are so glad you love these "Extras". Please note that this Gaither EXTRA page is for the speaking parts and interview portions of the Gaither world. You can find these songs on Gaither Music TV (@GaitherMusic). We are excited you are here enjoying this part of our content. Have a blessed day.
Why in the world does Gaither keep bringing WORLDLY people into the world of Gospel music. My Bible SAYS WHAT FELLOWSHIP DO WE HAVE WITH THE WORLD. Both the Oakridge and the statlers got their start in Southern Gospel music and then turned their backs on GODS CALLING to go make MILLIONS of dollars paying bar and dance floor music I remember several years ago oakridge was performing in Winston Salem and one of our GOSPEL MUSIC STATIONS took off over to interview them and ask them IF THEY WERE RETURNING TO GOSPEL MUSIC because f the Album they did. And they relied We are just following the Money. I never heard an interview cut that short in my life
