They were so good the best of the groups out there .they put on fun shows .i loved watching there .upper michigan state fair in Escanaba it was great to be there an seeing them .we were standing just a few feet from the stage .
Harold was such a jokester He cracked me up. Rest in Sweet peace Harold in the arms of our Father. I pray that God comforts your family. Give them strength to carry on. God bless them all
May Harold Reid RIP. He is gone, but he will be forever loved, and missed by Millions of Fans World Wide. He passed away at home on 4/24/20, following a brave battle with Kidney failure, according to his Nephew, Langdon Reid, Son of Former Lead Singer, Don Reid.
R.I.P Harold Reid now your walking down the streets of gold and I'm sure you are in awesome seeing our Lord And Savoir.. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and to the Statler Brothers may God Bless you all
These guys were magic. They were my first concert in 1975. I miss them. May Harold rest in peace, free from pain. Prayers of comfort to the Reid family and the other Brothers. You gave us years of love. God bless.
These guys are Irreplaceable how fortunate our generation is to have had them .just compare rap music to this gold and you will see what is wrong with our wonderful country. RIP Harold you will be missed but never forgotten
These men are the very definition of true Southern Gentleman. I've had the honor of meeting them several times and everytime I do I thank God for two things one that my dad bought that first album and two that the Statler Brothers are from Virginia. I've been a fan my whole life.
Actually Phil Don & Harold are from Staunton and originally Jimmy Fortune was from outside of Stanton but in Virginia somewhere in Virginia and Lou DeWitt the original founding tenor was also from Staunton all four of these are homegrown Virginia boys I grew up in Hillsville Virginia down near the North Carolina line in the Southwest loved these guys since I was a child Southern 4-part Harmony is unmatchable they're amazing wish they were still singing
Harold, Phil Everly, George, Cash and so many other of our country singing hero's laid to rest. I thank God for their music that will forever be endured. "Elvis has left the Building."❤
I LOVE LOVE LOVE STATLERS. SO SO SAD ABOUT HAROLD. LUVED HIM SO O MUCH MY FAV. SONG ...I,LL GO TO MY GRAVE LOVING YOU. LOVE LOVE LOVE THAT ONE BED OF ROSES NXT. BUT I LOVE THEM ALL .YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN HAROLD. R.I.P.GORGEOUS.X X X X ♥️♥️💔💛💔
I live in Nashville and many years ago I had the opportunity to go see The Statlers in concert in a little town southeast of Nashville and they were outstanding. One of the best concerts I have ever attended. I have been a fan of The Statlers since they released Flowers on the Wall and they just kept releasing hit after hit. I don't know of any group, country or otherwise, who has harmony as beautiful as the Statlers. I know that everyone has to retire eventually but I sure hated it when these guys retired. I am delighted to find so many videos of the Statler songs on TH-cam. Thanks for posting this.
Although Don sang lead and wrote many of their hits Lew was the unofficial leader and their musical director. Lew wrote their first hit in 1965 "Flowers on The Wall" while they were still part of Johnny Cash's entourage.
I went to college at Eastern Kentucky University. Been to Clay many times. Isn't that where Mohammad Ali (Cassius Clay) was born and raised? Wonderful little place in the 60s
Sadly, the Oak Ridge Boys don't have much left in the tank. Figure them to scale it back or retire in another couple of years. Other groups that I like include Home Free, Signature Sound, Booth Brothers, and Triumphant Quartet. Check those groups out if you haven't already done so. All good. I would highly recommend them to see in concert.
It breaks my heart to see them sing knowing that Harold is gone it reminds me that my brother is going also and I miss him a lot unless I'm sure the other Statler Brothers do. God bless Harold
Can I somehow bring up these programs that were on tv weekly on I pa d just learning this stuff at 71 oops here goes nothing my grand d ani watched these guys. A weekend night in bed eating hot buttered. Popcorn an sipping Coca Cola be of times some one in Somerset Mass
Wow, I remember watching and/or recording all of these awesome shows in the 90's. I still have them all on DVD now, transferred from VHS. I will never forget all those great performances.
I agree. I love how he uses the deeper part of his voice more than most lead singers who seem like they're always straining at the top of their range. Imo he is the best lead singer in country/gospel bar none.
If you like this, you should check out the version by Wil and Langdon Reid, sons of Harold and Don. Harold's son Wil sings the lead. They formerly performed as Grandstaff and now go under the name Wilson Fairchild.
I love Wilson Fairchild’s music! Can’t wait to get their CD’s. Saw the Statler Brothers performance along with Johnny Cash concert in 1972. I was 14 and fell in love Harold Reid. His humor was off the charts and TSB were such talented ppl. I’ve played their music and JC too since then. They all sang of the working class, military, and/or struggling ppl.
Phil has so Much Talent,He can fill in anywhere Don slips up on a note or Jimmy ! I don'think I realized He was so valuable (great worth) Because He is More (quiet)! When We saw Them in concerts it was in the 60's or seventy's Herald was SO OUTGOING & Don was quiet But Herald brought Him Out! We were Kids than ! Didn't really look for what We would NOW!
Odd, I was voted Future Citizen of Clay back in 1964...I never thought there would b a song written for a place so small...and yes, 32 years have gone by and I have moved back to Clay, Ky.
They were so good the best of the groups out there .they put on fun shows .i loved watching there .upper michigan state fair in Escanaba it was great to be there an seeing them .we were standing just a few feet from the stage .
Still listening to this in 2024!
I've said it before and I'll say it some more. I think the Statler Brothers are the best male quartet that's ever been.
Got most of their LP's
A we
yes yes yes!!!
Agree

Love the Statlers.Never will be another like them. Shirley Rays Country Singer

RIP Harold; God bless you and your family. Thanks for the memories
Harold was such a jokester He cracked me up. Rest in Sweet peace Harold in the arms of our Father. I pray that God comforts your family. Give them strength to carry on. God bless them all
Don. Is my favorite
May Harold Reid RIP. He is gone, but he will be forever loved, and missed by Millions of Fans World Wide. He passed away at home on 4/24/20, following a brave battle with Kidney failure, according to his Nephew, Langdon Reid, Son of Former Lead Singer, Don Reid.
That dobro on this song is pretty decent.
I love don
They always take me home. To a better simpler time when the World made sense.
The Statler Brothers have always been a class act. I still love to hear their music. RIP Harold Reid, Gone But Not Forgotten 🎼
I still miss Lew!
Now this is real country music. That BS they do today sucks big time.
Why settle for dobro when you can have MAGIC DOBRO 😂😂?! I love 💕 you ALL Harold, Phil, Donny, & Jimmy. And let us never forget Lew.
R.I.P Harold Reid now your walking down the streets of gold and I'm sure you are in awesome seeing our Lord And Savoir.. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and to the Statler Brothers may God Bless you all
@Greg Normal yes I am a fan
These guys were magic. They were my first concert in 1975. I miss them. May Harold rest in peace, free from pain. Prayers of comfort to the Reid family and the other Brothers. You gave us years of love. God bless.
These guys are
Irreplaceable how fortunate our generation is to have had them .just compare rap music to this gold and you will see what is wrong with our wonderful country. RIP Harold you will be missed but never forgotten
THEY CAN SING A "STORY" SONG ABOUT ANY THING, PLACE OR PERSON & THEY "HAVE" ME FROM THE VERY FIRST LINE!!! AMAZIN!!!
I9kkkkkkk([Lewis 0(lk
It just doesn't get any better than this group !!
This is the very best of the world's best singers.I have been a fan from there first recording. Shirley raye. Country singer.
I think The Starlet Brothers, will definitely go down in history as the best group in Country Music History❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Rest In Peace Harold Reid. My prayers to the Statlers remaining and the Reid family.
I love you music
The backbone of true country music are the story songs and The Statlers were masters on them.
Best group to ever hit the stage.God bless them.

Been a fan too of this wonderful group for many many years- Greetings from newfoundland, Canada.
My brother had the privilege of meeting them backstage. He said they were very humble and kind.
I thought I'd heard all their songs but never heard this one! Got to find it!
R.I.P. Harold Reid.
This Kentucky gal loves the Statler Brothers music thanks for the Kentucky song !!!!!! Bluegrass State appreciates y'all!!!!!!
Best there ever was is or ever will be!!! Case closed!

The world will miss you, Harold. Rip

The Statler Brothers are so talented!!I I have seen many times in Concert!!!! Never gets old listening to them..Only gets Better..
Wow! I would have loved to see them in person. I wonder why they didn't play more. But I never saw them in concert, only in their tv show.
I agree that they are the best male quartet that has ever been. I also like the way Wil and Langdon do this song. Very talented all of them.
They are the best!!! I love them and I love this song .

These guys were always the ultimate professionals. Been a fan since 1981.

Love there voice and their music 🎶
@Greg Normal yes I love their music
I love them. I like it when Lew was with them too.
There'll never be another Lew.
Although Don sang lead and wrote many of their hits Lew was the unofficial leader and their musical director. Lew wrote their first hit in 1965 "Flowers on The Wall" while they were still part of Johnny Cash's entourage.
😢R.I.P. Harold and Lew!
The Statlers, the best.
Awwwhhhh take me back man! I grew up on the Statler Brothers!!!
So square they're hip. Emotion unthrottled.

Wow, that could be a great song 🤪
Love these guys, love these guys, love these guys!!!
They are so incredible it is hard to comment
THIS GROUP ARE GREAT EVERY TIME
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The STATLER'S are the best group. That was the best thing The Nashville Network ever did by giving them their own TV show. It was one of the best.
I went to college at Eastern Kentucky University. Been to Clay many times. Isn't that where Mohammad Ali (Cassius Clay) was born and raised? Wonderful little place in the 60s
I have loved the Statler Brothers since the first time I ever heard them. I loved Lew, Phil, Harold and Jimmy. But my heart belongs to Don.
I see Mouse and Booby back there ! Love the All American band too , R I P Harold !
This is a well made group
I agree with you Richard. Give My Love To Rose brought my tears.
The two groups I liked the best are The Statler Brothers and The oak ridge boys
Sadly, the Oak Ridge Boys don't have much left in the tank. Figure them to scale it back or retire in another couple of years. Other groups that I like include Home Free, Signature Sound, Booth Brothers, and Triumphant Quartet. Check those groups out if you haven't already done so. All good. I would highly recommend them to see in concert.
Wilson Fairchild is good too
These guys are the best ever !!!
One of my live favs from these guys. Shows how versatile they all are.
Fantastic great song from the brilliant statlers
What talent,sure do miss there sounds
It breaks my heart to see them sing knowing that Harold is gone it reminds me that my brother is going also and I miss him a lot unless I'm sure the other Statler Brothers do. God bless Harold
The quartet owes its unique sound to the combination of all the guys, but I love Phil's smoooooth voice.
Yesss
These guys are terrific.

Can I somehow bring up these programs that were on tv weekly on I pa d just learning this stuff at 71 oops here goes nothing my grand d ani watched these guys. A weekend night in bed eating hot buttered. Popcorn an sipping Coca Cola be of times some one in Somerset Mass

1990 Statler brothers weekly tv program can you show me these.
Don is the best
His voice has only improved with age. So smooth and strong! I've had a crush on him for a long time!!!
I agree. I love how he uses the deeper part of his voice more than most lead singers who seem like they're always straining at the top of their range. Imo he is the best lead singer in country/gospel bar none.
listen to them every day fantastic
Yeah I do too. They are my strength.

Phil is my favorite.
Startled Brothers. The Best of The Best. 🎉🎉🎉
