When my little boy was about five years old he used to get up early in the morning, fix himself a bowl of cereal and go in the living room and turn on the TV and sit down about 5 feet from the screen and watch early morning Gospel Sing. It was the sweetest vision this mother could see.
All four of those fine folks were from Alabama. Ms. Vestal grew up 15 miles from I was born and raised. I actually played piano a few times for her brother, Mr. Cat Freeman, who sang tenor with the Statesmen. There's a very rich heritage of southern gospel in northeast Alabama, the Sand Mountain area. It make me happy that there are people who still love this music.
I may have actually been at this show. My daddy drug me to every "all night" singing that came to town. He taught me what real singing was. He knew music. I miss him. I miss good music.
Me and you both,,,i love good singing and music as well, the HAPPY GOODMAN FAMILY SANG ONE SONG I PLAY ALOT, " IT WAS CALLED ( LOOKING FOR A CITY BUILD OF GOLD ",,I CAN FEEL DOWN AND IT BRINGS ME UP AND WITH THE VIRUS WE ALL NEED A SONG LIKE THAT. jimmy from Indiana
Grew up in the 70s listening to the Goodman's. What a blessing! Rusty wrote some touching songs and Jack Smith was a big part of their sound playing pedal steel. Awesome musicians! God Bless their memory.
My mother sang gospel music all my life and used to sing God walks the dark Hills. This brought back so many wonderful memories. She would stand up there on her crutches, she had polio, and sing God walks the dark Hills as beautiful as Vestal ever could and just raise her hands and praise the Lord with her crutches dangling from her arms. She raised us on good southern gospel music like this and I sure miss her and the music.
I remember every sunday morning getting ready for church while ' the gospel singing jubilee' was playing over our TV. We kids had our cartoons on Saturday, but dad had it on gospel singing on Sunday morning. The Happy Goodmans were a regular on this show as were so many other wonderful early gospel groups!
I listen to this because it brings back GOOD memories of being at home lisening/watching the Happy Goodman Family on TV Sunday mornings getting ready to go to Sunday school/church with my mother, dad & my 2 younger brothers & older sister. It puts me back on a level track of feeling love from family & church folk I knew since I was 2 weeks old going to church. I am now 71, but I can still feel the spirit of the HOLLY GHOST when I received it at church youth camp at the Tabernacle in Cleveland TN one mid summer night when I was 12. Oh, what a feeling inside speaking in tongues with no control but the Holy Spirit running over me praising thr LORD.
I miss when church was like this and music was FUN. And it's also not repetitive. Love the Goodmans! I grew up on this!! If I could find a church that still had this kind of music, I'd be so happy.
Absolutely fabulous! As a child, I grew up going to "All night sings" at Medina Temple in Chicago, and really enjoyed ALL the groups. The Goodman Family was always a favorite.
Grew up going to their concerts all over East Texas. It was so exciting, sitting in the auditorium waiting for them to start singing. It was like going to a camp meeting !
Thank you Dear One for uploading this video of the Happy Goodmans. It is so Anointed, we need this today again, in this hour. JESUS Loves you alot!! - With CHRIST's Love, Jim Linneman, Ephesians 1:7
What a blessing to hear my favorite group and Rusty! The pedal steel music at the end of "Had It Not Been", sends chills thru me! Praise The Name of the Lord Forever More!
I must this music. I truly felt the holy spirit everytime I listen to the music. The words of the songs are so encouraging. When get to heaven I am going to tell how much I loved and needed to hear this music. Thank you Mary Werning
The late great Rusty Goodman penned a song and anthem of the ages for he truly realized had it not been for a place called Mount Calvary..had it not been for the old rugged cross...had it not been for a man called JESUS...then forever my soul would be lost! Thank God Rusty was led by the Holy Spirit to guide him in writing this epic song for the Lord Jesus Christ.
At one time, Rusty played pedal steel guitar, and that may have influenced his song writing as well. Thank the Lord for a song that says the truth, and grabs you by the heart and holds on - for years.
nobody like Ms Vestal Goodman's voice and her Godly spirit!!! they traveled and worked til the end!!! I just wonder how many souls were saved under their ministry?? how many lives completely changed because they obeyed God????
I was one of those that they touched and that they held on to me with their music. I was a boy on 18. Today I'm 66. And when I need to be ministered to through music, a return to the place where I know I'll get the blessing that I need. I'm aiming to see them and hear them again. And oh what a reunion that's gonna be. And by the grace of God I'll make it.
@@eileenhinckley703I fell in love with Vestal watching the Gather programs. I couldn’t hardly wait for Vestal to sing, I felt the Lord so good! Then I met Dottie Rambo and started to getting to know and follow her too through the Gather programs. Then anywhere I could find them I wore them out listening to these two GREAT women in God with such a Godly voices and testimony in the Lord! They bless my soul, all glory to God!
The Goodmans actually came out of the Pentecostal Church of God which is a trinitarian pentecostal denomination similar to the Assemblies of God. Back then, many women in UPC, PCG, AoG, and other pentecostal denominations either had big hair like that on their own, or wore beehive wigs to give the look. I think the thought was, the higher the hair, the closer you were to Heaven/God. LOL! Most of the trinitarian pentecostal churches have gotten away from requiring women wear their hair long, but the apostolic/oneness pentecostals still hold to that standard.
I think the women wore their hair like that because they loved God and wanted to please Him. A woman's hair is given to them for their glory, and they wanted more glory.
Actually, they were out of a Oneness Pentecostal Church. Vestel and Howard were raised that way and went on to Pastor a Oneness Church. On top of that in later years they were members of Christ Church in Nashville Pastor Hardwick..Vestels Going Home service was there. Christ Church is a Jesus name Oneness Church. But they are more modern and open. Christ Church years ago was formerly UPC. The PCOG do not hold onto the same Holiness standards that Apostolic or UPC do nor like the non-Pentecostal Holiness Churches. Sorry to disappoint you. I am in music ministry and know very close friends of theirs and colleagues that also will confirm this .
Your are correct. Howard was and Ordained minister of the Pentecostal Church of God (Bedford, Texas) which as you noted is Trinitarian Pentecostal. They pastored in Madisonville, Kentucky for many years. Build a great church there. Good friends and great people. God granted them wonderful gifts which thankfully they shared and are still being shared today!
You are correct..they were Oneness and later attended Christ Church in Nashville another modern-day Oneness Church. Christ Church in Nashville was UPC at one time. They broke and became indepandent. However they still hold on to some Oneness doctrine. Who cares anyway!! They loved Jesus and that is what is most important. And btw The Hemphills were UPC as well, did you know that. Most all the big time Gospel singers and songwriters UPC..should I go down the list? Lol- The Rambos, Hemphils, Lanny Wolfe, Geron and Becky Davis, David and the Giants, Phillips Craig and Dean, IBC Choir and tons more. The Pentecostal CHurch of God nor Assembly of God dressed with Holliness standards the way UPC and Holliness Churches do. That is what has made them stand out. But back in the day when they first started they were not like that. So UPC is not only Pentecostal but they are Holliness. And actually much more up to date in many cases than some Holliness churches. So remember this , if the Goodmans were totally PCOG they would not have been members of Christ Church . This is where their funeral s were at too. Blessings. In the end all that matters is your relationship with Jesus..call yourself Oneness of Trinity. There are great arguments on both sides. Remember this..there is but only ONE GOD. REPLY
Back then they didn't have fancy canned music, or synthesized background singers. They made their own music, set up their own arrangements, and performed the music live. Today a lot of singers can't do a thing without something canned behind them.
It became a matter of economics- pure and simple. And yes its sad- the Hinsons were one of the last groups to travel live with a full band. But the sad truth is the market for Southern Gospel has shrunk over the years and you just can't generate enough income to pay singers and band members full time. Case in point: Vestal Goodman tells in her book that in the early 1970s when the Goodmans were hot- they were commanding $3500 a show. A decade later- many professional groups were singing for love offerings and couldn't command that price. So groups went to tracks with maybe a piano and sometimes bass player because with the technology you can have very high quality studio musicians on soundtrack. But what it has done is remove the energy and spontaneity from live Southern Gospel concerts. You have to plan your encores or at least have encores taped ready to go for certain songs whereas in years past- you can go with the flow of the crowd and the musicians were part of the live energy along with the singers. Those days are gone- thank goodness for You Tube.
After Vestal retired the wigs to the boxes under her bed, she got a couiffed hairstyle. I always thought she had great hair, and even much shorter, it was still big hair
She wore the wigs only when she was being treated for cancer and lost her natural hair. She had never cut her hair in her life. In Saint Louis, Mo at the Kiel Opera House, Brother Sam pulled the hair pins out of her hair and it trailed her on the floor! My late father and I did photography for three of the Goodman's album covers and lots of promotional photography at their concerts. I see a very young Eddie Crook on piano, and I think that's still Bobby on bass.
Yes, I am just as anxious as anyone to escape this world and go home to paradise; but what about our lost love ones. Jesus is coming soon. This scares me; for there are so many deceived. There are so many lost, who don't even know that they are lost. There are so many going to destruction; so many on their way to hell unless they repent and accept Jesus as their Lord and savior; but they don't even know that they sin, that they fall short of God's glory. (see John 3:16) They don't even know that they need the savior. They are so deceived. There is so much to do. So Lord would you tarry longer? so we can go to war against Satan, the great deceiver. We have so much to do. So Lord, let us get busy trying to get the truth to the deceived, to the lost, to the perishing. So Lord would you tarry longer Because You are long-suffering toward us and would that none should perish? (see II Peter 3:9) So let us not tarry; Let us get busy helping the Lord rescue the perishing. So Lord, as we tarry not; would you tarry longer?
I love the scripture which saith, believe on the Lord and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Remember keep your eyes on Jesus, he's the one who will save thy house, and that includes all your children. They will not be saved if you are not saved, but they will be saved if you are saved. Not because of us, but because God (who cannot lie) said so. Remember Lot's wife, her babbies were lost because she looked back. If she had not looked back, I believe we would have a different story on that. So now I ask you, can God lie? If not then my children are not going to hell, they are going to be in Heaven with me! Jesus will come again when the Father sends Him, until then let us watch and pray, and trust in the Lord with all our hearts.
I can’t believe how many people stupidly though Vestal Goodman’s beehive hairdo was real... it was real hair at the bottom fake curls beehive wig at the top... Vestal put this hairpiece on like a hat before she went out to sing on stage. ... to make it easier and faster to get ready... and save her real hair from hot stage lights. Later on in life Vestal turned against that same hairpiece...cause it was artificial.. why that beehive hairdo made her career!!! People showed up at those concerts just to gawk at it.
I'm sure that I heard Vestal say in an interview that it was actually a wig. I can't imagine it being a big mess of hair. I think it would extend to the floor if it were real. lol
Vestal in her book says it was in fact two wiglets. One on top of the other and when she quit wearing her hair that way, the church group they were affiliated with thought she had fallen from grace and sinned..How stupid can one get!
They most likely went to a United Pentecostal Church (UPC). The woman do not cut their hair, wear makeup, and no jewelry (not even wedding rings). I have been attending Assembly of God churches my entire life, my daddy was a pastor. The Assemblies of God is not as legalistic. Women can wear their hair any way they want, wear makeup and jewelry. My mom said that when she was in high school, she had a friend that was UPC and went to visit her church. My mom had short hair, had jewelry and makeup on, and wore a short sleeve dress on. All eyes were on her as she walked in and sat down and she could tell that they thought she was a sinner that needed saving!
Kristi Van Eaton Actually, they were Pentecostal Church of God. Many Pentecostal denominations back at that time had the similar ideas on dress, makeup, and hair. For some, it was their real hair, for others, it was comprised of their hair and added pieces. Many in the Assemblies of God were still holding to these ideas even then, though some had moved away from it.
Of course it matters. You believe that because you choose to believe that particular interpretation of scripture regardless of whether it really means what you say it means. It doesn't mean you are right.
When my little boy was about five years old he used to get up early in the morning, fix himself a bowl of cereal and go in the living room and turn on the TV and sit down about 5 feet from the screen and watch early morning Gospel Sing. It was the sweetest vision this mother could see.

Was your dad, George Forbus, the singer?
No one could sing "God Walks the Dark Hills" like Vestal Goodman.
I absolutely agree with you 👍💗
Grew up in the 70s listening to the Goodman's. What a blessing! Rusty wrote some touching songs and Jack Smith was a big part of their sound playing pedal steel. Awesome musicians! God Bless their memory.
I so agree. Do you remember The Happy Jubilee TV show? :)

Oh yes! I witnessed her last micking!
Simply GLORIOUS and Timeless!! GOD BLESS ALL these dear Southern Saints--I've been Blessed to hear them some 60 Years by now! True Glory to God!
When it comes to Gospel Music it does not get any better then this ! The musicianship and harmonies are unbelievable!
The higher the hair, the closer to God. Ms. Vestal hit the ball out the park! Such fond memories ❤
Yes it is so uplifting the joy of lord is our strength"
Love these folks!!! I have been watching since I was a little girl and I am 71
Oh how I love the Happy Goodmans, especially Vestal. What a wonderful singer ❤💜💖

Still blessed each time I listen to the Happy Goodmans.
I keep coming back to the Happy Goodmans Can't get enough of them!
They sure knew how to tear up a stage!
How great thou art!!!Our world needs this spirit again!!!!!!
How I wish Southern Gospel Music was sung like this at a concert.
As a child I so remember these all night signings on tv or a auditorium

Praise to The Lord, Jesus. This family ministered and witnessed through song for many years.
All-American like no others all my life. Vestal Goodman is just so beautiful.
this still beats anything on today; this is just fantastic beyond words
Absolutely fabulous! As a child, I grew up going to "All night sings" at Medina Temple in Chicago, and really enjoyed ALL the groups. The Goodman Family was always a favorite.

AMEN !!
Love Rusty's voice! Such anointing!
So wonderful, words are hard to find, the tears in my eyes say it all.
love the steel guitar break.
Loved The Happy Goodman’s.
Nice band--steel player Jack was excellent at a very young age. They all understood how to sing AND play to communicate the song. True pioneers.
At one time, Rusty played pedal steel guitar, and that may have influenced his song writing as well. Thank the Lord for a song that says the truth, and grabs you by the heart and holds on - for years.
Who isThe Steel Guitar Player ???
William Wiles It’s the late Jack Smith.
Yes, their playing enhanced their singing tremendously. I loved the way Rusty turned the volume up on his guitar, and it helped greatly.
I remember the ALL NIGHT GOSPEL SINGS in Bonifay, Fl..... I miss them!
I went to those in Bonifay, Fl as well- always fun
nobody like Ms Vestal Goodman's voice and her Godly spirit!!! they traveled and worked til the end!!! I just wonder how many souls were saved under their ministry?? how many lives completely changed because they obeyed God????
she could really belt them out.

to think the ladies used to wear their hair like hers all the time wow but this brings back memories good ones
outstanding! I cannot get enough of this. Thanks.
Thank you for the nostalgic posting. I knew the Goodmans when they did their shows from WLOS-TV in Asheville, NC.
Missing Vestal everyday. Don't expect I'll ever stop!

Nothing better!

That hairpiece wig Vestal wore surely took a lot of pins to keep it up
Let them wash over you.

Yes, I am just as anxious
as anyone to escape this world
and go home to paradise;
but what about our lost love ones.
Jesus is coming soon.
This scares me;
for there are so many deceived.
There are so many lost,
who don't even know
that they are lost.
There are so many going to destruction;
so many on their way to hell
unless they repent
and accept Jesus
as their Lord and savior;
but they don't even know
that they sin,
that they fall short
of God's glory. (see John 3:16)
They don't even know
that they need the savior.
They are so deceived.
There is so much to do.
So Lord would you tarry longer?
so we can go to war against Satan,
the great deceiver.
We have so much to do.
So Lord, let us get busy
trying to get the truth
to the deceived,
to the lost,
to the perishing.
So Lord would you tarry longer
Because
You are long-suffering toward us
and would that none should perish? (see II Peter 3:9)
So let us not tarry;
Let us get busy
helping the Lord
rescue the perishing.
So Lord, as we tarry not;
would you tarry longer?
I love the scripture which saith, believe on the Lord and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Remember keep your eyes on Jesus, he's the one who will save thy house, and that includes all your children. They will not be saved if you are not saved, but they will be saved if you are saved.

But I'm pentecostal so when I sing I don't pause in the middle

Many in the Assemblies of God were still holding to these ideas even then, though some had moved away from it.
It does not matter who chooses to do what; if the Bible says it's wrong it's wrong regardless. I am Pentecostal as well.
Of course it matters. You believe that because you choose to believe that particular interpretation of scripture regardless of whether it really means what you say it means. It doesn't mean you are right.
you still have some Apostolic Churches that practice that man made law. My God judges my inward being not my outward. Praise God!
