And now everyone who did not previously catch my comments above should now.

1. I may have gone with Riley if I had gone with those who are mostly retired, but I decided to vote for someone still on the road.

6. I really like Gerald Wolfe, too. If I had gone with a lead singer, it would quite probably have been him.

7. Granted, Susan Whisnant is probably a dark horse, but not as much of one as Olivia Collingsworth. Did you realize that Olivia, the one I voted for, is their youngest daughter? She may be eight or nine but she looks like she’s five or six.

11. As I mentioned, it was a tossup between Wilkinson and Rowland, and I nearly went with Wilkinson.

13. I’d agree that it was a lean year. I haven’t seen First Love yet, but I have seen the Ball Brothers, so that was a logical pick for me.

15. No need to apologize.

16. Most Southern Gospel fans would probably go with Ken Davis. I went with Gerald Wolfe simply for a change of pace. I also must admit that I like the subtle jokes, where you don’t laugh immediately but everyone gets it after a few minutes.

Good post, Ron!

1. The living legend to me is Tim Riley who defines the bass singer in sg music

2. We agree on group of the year

3. For Trio of the year I have chosen the underrated Paid in Full. What a group.

4. Even though they are now a trio, for most of the year the McRaes were a duet and I went with them.

5. Soloist of the year–Mrs. Greene got my vote. Her songs were all over the radio and the voice is sublime.

6. Gerald Wolfe will always be my male vocalist of the year.

7. For femal vocalist, i’m going with another dark horse – Susan Whisnant.

8. My Song of the Year is “Truth is Marchin On”. What a great song.

9. The Gaither videos keep on besting everyone else and the Canadian homecoming videos were superior in sound, performance and content. No one can make a video that matches Gaither.

10. The album of the year is Gold city’s “Revival” for so many reasons. The Perrys and the Kingsmen were close behind.

11. I wnet with Diane for songwriter of the year. No one does more quality stuff and has done it for so long.

12. My insturmentalist has to be Stan Whitmire now and forever. No one plays true sg like Stan. He’s the best and the fact that he is not recognized as such amazes me.

13. sunrise? A lean year, but ai go with First Love. The Ball Brothers were second.

14. Most of them are horrile, so I leftit blank.

15. I went with Avery on this one. Sorry.

16. Christian comedian? Ken Davis, hands down.

17. Bluegrass Gospel Artist? Only the Lewis Family. They are the best.

Good post and I enjoyed sharing my favorites with you, Daniel.
