    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.

    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.

    • @thalamus2miller515
      @thalamus2miller515 5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      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

      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.

    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!

      @jerrscott6373 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      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.

      @zaneeicher3040 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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.
