I just heard tonight that Joe passed, I didn't know. My heart is broken. My world was better and happier with Joe Bonsall singing in it. Thank you for the joy, heaven is richer.
I know what you mean. Joe's voice had a special quality to it. Though he sang tenor, he's voice had the flavor to sing lead as well as top harmony to Duane.
Those ORB concerts sure being in their audience sure can feel the presence of KING of the kings 🎉😊 the one in a million Becuz as I get closer too be 60( I sing alot bouts groovy dreamy place which I would never grow older) 💐🌹🌷where roses will never fades away too that I struggle with headaches from liver condition exhaustion fatigue symptoms seeing my sweet loved ones that will never be nobody too put me down on those golden streets nobody too tells me younger than me leave their house whenever I'n HEAVEN my neighbors the welcome will never end
After watching this quite a few times, I JUST realized that when William Lee sing the titled lyrics, he actually sticks up THREE fingers. The first time he does this, Richard's reaction (oh well...) makes sense. Hilarious. Anyone else noticed this???
@@highnrising Billy Gibbons & Dusty Hill of ZZ Top didn’t grow their beards until almost ten years after the band formed in 1969. Ironically, drummer Frank Beard is the only member of ZZ Top without a beard. ZZ Top’s first album (1971) has a sleeve picture of them beardless. Plus google has a lot of early pictures of them without beards.
In February of 1980 I met a girl at a friend's 1 month memorial at his accident site she turned and looked at me and I saw a twinkle in her eye . I soon met her family and oops her youngest sister I became friends with both and eventually lovers with both it was hard to hide it from the other I eventually married the youngest and that became a mistake soon other than the birth of my son we soon divorced Iv kept in and out of contact with the older girl for years and Everytime she looked at me I saw that twinkle . knowing I should have chosen her this song reminds me of that time in my life. So tonight as she lays on her deathbed with what I'm told Is only days or even hours I dedicate this song to Gracie. May God hold you in his arms forever. Goodbye my princess rest easy. ""Greenish grey female sheep "" " that's olive ewe"" goodbye till we meet on the other side maybe I will see that twinkle again
So sorry.😔💔 Bless you both and may you find each other again and spend eternity together. I didn't understand your use of "ewe" but it's how I sometimes spell "you" to my Beloved because his initials are E.W. so thank you for that. Blessings and prayers of comfort and peace🙏🙏🙏
William Lee Golden is so handsome without that long beard. I dont understand why he is hiding his handsome face under all that hair. It is the same way with Willie Nelson. Willie Nelson looked good with short hair and no beard. They are only aging themselves with these long hair and beards. I had to double check that it was really Willam Lee Golden that I saw. I thought maybe that was somebody else.
Earlier on than this he was even more clean cut. In his solo videos after he left the Oaks for a few years he looked nasty and his fingernails were LONG and dirty looking. Seems like mental illness to me.
Wow! The original oak ridge boys sang about Jesus. Then these “boys” sing about one guy trying to love two women. Gonna have to answer to Jesus on that one day, boys.
I have loved Bill Golden since I was 16 years old. I am now 61 yrs old and still ❤ him.
Seeing him at this age, I can really see his son that looks like him now.
That’s the way I always felt about Joe Bonsall, now he’s sick and I hate that so much. I’d love to see him sing in person just one more time. ❤️❤️
My mother loved him. I love the entire group really- What amazing songs.
He is so handsome. I always wished he would show his face like this.
Same here!! I'll be 47 next week
Oh My! The sweet memories of seeing these guys in concert since 1979!!

BG has always been my fav!!
1980 memories

Must be why he’s been married 4 times. Also, did you notice he’s wearing two belts?
❤❤❤
Legend has it he never bought razor blades again after this performance.
😂
His beard is epic
I almost forgot how William Lee Golden looks without long hair & a ZZTop beard.
Me too!
But what do the ZZ Top guys look like without the beards?

Was kn their bus in indiana william lee stood their and stared at me
Loving two women? Been there done that, loved it🎉
And with that, he just stopped shaving. Some folks say his beard is still growing to this day.
It is!
It’s reached its maximum length.

@@CrystalTwinStar thank you
@@altonkenne579Should have been loyal . Papaw said a real man wouldn't cheat on his woman.
Where is the guy with the hair and ZZ Top beard?
It's William, red bandana, and starts the song.
@@deborahhileman9149 Believe he is the one who recently passed . They did have a guy fill in for him
He is the one with the cowboy hat on and I didn't know he had passed away!
I can see that Rusty looked like his dad in this video
Hey could you re-upload this with the volume louder?
My late husband had that dilema! I am alright!

For the same reason women hide behind lipstick, eyeshadow, mascara, and rouge.
Bill Golden has a Jack Nicholson/Jim Carrey type of vibe to him, here..
Rip Joe
Damn, William Lee Golden before the Beard
I would love to hear WilliamLee sing this with Tim--in Richards place--Now.❤❤❤❤
I did not recognize William Golden without the beard. What year was this?
Earlier on than this he was even more clean cut. In his solo videos after he left the Oaks for a few years he looked nasty and his fingernails were LONG and dirty looking. Seems like mental illness to me.
The 70s
My guess this is 1980
@@sandlot40He went back to his native American roots. He had been voted out of the ORB and essentially worked out a lot of issues.
this is not the problem its the world we live in
To all th switch hittas out there
yo wife hates u but ole girl
is smiling
Good lord….William!
Vintage! Nuf said!
Before William Lee Golden became gandalf
He was so handsome. I don't know why he wanted to cover it with all that hair and beard?
Brought to you by Pablo Escobar
Loo ks like rusty
WLG was the best looking one, yet he chose to cover up his good looks in exchange for a mountain man look. A waste of eye candy!

Well, they did not recommend it. They said it's a bad idea.
