Chris Golden interviews his famous father, William Lee Golden of the Oak Ridge Boys, and William Lee performs "Louisiana Red Dirt Hiway", and "Before I Die"
Oh my goodness I love this man! The Oak Ridge Boys are awesome in Gospel and Country! Hearing him speak and with his son was really a treat! Much love 💜 🛐 ✝️
I'm a 70's guy,, and we had it best! No other generation had it as good as we did! Fact! The big war was over ww2 that is for about 20 something years, and modern technology sprang up,, from better stoves, washing machines, lol,, to t.v., radios, recording devices, and medicines, and everything else, that NO OTHER GENERATION ENJOYED! And the music that was created, showed a beauty and love, that is now sadly taken for granted by the young ones!
The music of today should be like the music it was used to be...What,s happening of the genre today. 2000s music are synthetic music and are almost trash!!! Thanks for this great work. Please do more on 70s, 80s and 90s hits they are all the epitome of true music.
Yes it Was !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The hardest part of gettin old is....................... Losin all them old men You once knew........... And Looked up to !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was selling whiskey one night outside a knoxville concert. William lee in concert. I sold a lot of whiskey that night. Who else, Willam Lee came walking up He said Hey.man, can I have a jar of that. I said u bet sir,be careful this will knock u off ur ass. He said,,know,just a cold drink of water. He pulled a wad of money. I said NO SIR. The next week I walked into my little local library. The lady said we have recied a 1000.00 dollars from you. It said thanks,William Lee. What a1st class man,to take the time out to allow some children to read. Thx Bill
love this man, and his group ....so many songs over so many years ...so many moments William Lee was always close by with a tune to soothe .His tunes were always exactly what I needed to hear in troubled times,and happy times too ,he would always just say what I was kinda feeling,I always thought it was strange ,but it was the way it was ,cant really explain it properly...long may he continue to have that sort of effect on people A truly incredible talent sent from God .....Thank you God
I was at the taping for this, WLG was a gracious guest and let me take some pics with myself and my family with him. Thanks for bringing this to the net.
William Lee Golden is my nephew-by-marriage. His mother, Rutha Mae Golden, was my sister-in-law as my husband was one of her four brothers. Rutha Mae Morgan Golden married Luke Golden, the only survivor of triplets at birth named Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Rutha Mae was the only girl of the marriage issued from the Christian farmer and gentleman, Arthur Morgan to his wife, who was deceased before my husband died. During the early years of the Oak Ridge Boys Rutha Mae wrote the words to many of the Christian songs which the Oak Ridge Boys sang.
I've got my headphones on cause my wife is on the sofa watching the news (mostly crappy) and I tell myself I won't sing along this time when it kicks in - yeah, right. here I am, just singing away to WLG incredible mellow music, incurring dirty looks from the couch - ouch.
Thank you so much for posting this. Tell me who sings with more heart than William?? And he is still going strong 40 years later. He will always be my all time favorite.
Golden is the newest member of the Oak Ridge Boys. He joined then in 2014. He was previously with Harold Reid, Phil Balsey, & Jimmy Fortune who are known as, "The Blackwood Brothers". Golden is from Minnesota.
I love these guys. My favorite 1st band from when I was a little kid in the early 80s. Funny thing. I was watching Duck Dynasty videos on u tube, and this video pops up. Guess it's a beard thing.
Maternal uncles of William Lee Golden included: * Leon Morgan, USAF, Com. Officer, Retired * James Morgan John Pierpont Morgan (Deceased) * Burns Morgan ** Luke Golden pre-deceased his wife, Rutha Mae Morgan Golden ** Rutha Mae Morgan Golden * IDKnow whether Leon, James, and Burns are still living or not. It seems to me that I can remember when Burns died. Burns was a Fast Foods Cook. ** Deceased NOTE: Arthur Morgan lived to be in his 90's and married a 2nd time some while after his first wife, who bore him the 5 children, died. Before her death she became almost insanely jealous of supposed (but untrue) love affairs that Arthur had with other women. So sad! -

I LOVE this song. The Oaks are my favorite country group. William Lee is still singing with the best of them.
Glad to see William is still performing solo as well as with the group.
Music is great and the man is awesome
The whole package, a good looking guy with a great voice! Thanks for posting.
Living Legend ! Your Shilo Hill is AMAZING ! Appreciate him now while he lives... I hate watching all my favorites die growing up.

The hardest part of gettin old is.......................
Losin all them old men You once knew...........

@@wilburshuman sure is.. sure is
Absolutely wonderful.
Something so comforting about his voice. Reminds one of a simpler time.
I envy you Americans----You people have the BEST music and all in your backyard===Congrads from Kemptville Ontario Canada.
Absolute gentleman! Such a mellow guy with an awesome voice speaking and singing. So talented!
TRUE COUNTRY MUSIC ....THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED BE PLAYED.

This man loves telling.his back ground, came from hard working people, he's a dreamer, and he did great, thank good for his dreaming, it paid off !!
Very under-rated song!
He has a great voice...thanks for posting this video him solo.
This is so sweet! All blessings to the GOLDEN family!
I was at the taping for this, WLG was a gracious guest and let me take some pics with myself and my family with him. Thanks for bringing this to the net.
His beard is what I strive for mine to be one day. I love his voice but was shocked when I found out he wasn't a bass singer.
Great stuff to share with us CountryMusicLovers, Thanks :)

Mark Golden was my 3rd Great Grandfather. Do you have any family tree info?
Beautiful lyrics and melody and of course excellent voice.
I love you Country Music
He has such an amazing voice!! I don't like much country but I love WLG!! That should say enough :)
country today isnt the same , i miss conway , george jones nd all the legends
how could anyone not love him?
His speaking voice is not what I expected. It's so deep that you'd think he would be a bass singer rather than a Baritone.
For the longest time I thought he did the bass singing in the ORB
i was raised on all these icons n i did as well so in spirit of u William i love ya babe
takes me back in time to a place I wish I was again
Love this tune!
one of the true greats !!
GOD BLESS GOSPEL SONG
I've got my headphones on cause my wife is on the sofa watching the news (mostly crappy) and I tell myself I won't sing along this time when it kicks in - yeah, right. here I am, just singing away to WLG incredible mellow music, incurring dirty looks from the couch - ouch.
pure class. pure talent
Have to listen to this every couple weeks or so
Such a beautiful and touching voice. Makes me have emotions again. Thank you so much.
Yes! William is the most handsome man on the planet, the older he gets, the sexier he gets
I love this song
William Golden is good music !!!!!
Thank you so much for posting this. Tell me who sings with more heart than William?? And he is still going strong 40 years later. He will always be my all time favorite.

He has only gotten better with time!
Great song......
thank you
Thanks very much for this upload!
You are so handsome
Keep on going

Al Swearengen Are you sure of that?
@@partheniafrench7849 Yes, I read it in Rolling Stone Magazine.
Al Swearengen I think I know this game. You post something that is untrue and I respond with truth. Google William Lee Golden.
@@1p2unia Are you talking about Johnny Paycheck? Then the answer is yes.
William Lee Golden is from Brewton ,Alabama,I grew up just a few miles from there,there are signs all over the town.
Nice one WLG, keep at it simple song sung well
Hoping to see more or William and The Oaks on the road....
I picked up the Oaks CD at Cracker Barrel, and I swear this version has more " Heart " to it. Go figure.
who could thumbs down this video?
WONDERFUL!!!
Chris looks remarkably like his dad did in the late 1970's when his dad was clean shaven
WLG is class.
Nice tune.
ahhh...back when writers knew how to write COUNTRY hits....
We need more songs like this in country radio and less Taylor,Carrie.....we want country music.
Good song
I'm gonna sing this song next time I do karaoke.
I enjoyed that
I wish I had William Lee Golden's beard. I also wish I knew how long it took him to grow it.
I love these guys. My favorite 1st band from when I was a little kid in the early 80s. Funny thing. I was watching Duck Dynasty videos on u tube, and this video pops up. Guess it's a beard thing.
WOW!!! WONDERFUL!!!
My Cousins!
I really like his taste in hats! I'm wondering if those are custom or stock purchases?
I wanna see the rest!!
These are real songs by real artists...before image and marketing totally ruined music.
