Amy Rogers: I noticed the redesign the other day. It’s my resource on a lot of discography related stuff.
Brian: Looks great. Last time I visited I thought about how it could use a little modern sprucing. Thanks for the site…I’ve used it as a resource numerous times. That site has the...
- A Hint: Guy Penrod to Return to GVB? (131)

Dawn Spencer: For sure GVB isn’t as good as it was with Guy. I would go see Guy in concert before GVB now. I think with Guy leaving it has or will hurt GVB ratings. Miss you Guy!!!

Meagan: This is a link to what I think you are looking for. If you go to Gaither.com, there is always a link to a promotional package recently seen on TV. Here is the direct link. Hope this helps!...
Gail: What was the promotional 800 number that Gaither advertised at the end of the program on Hallmark today 11/20/09. It was 1-800-771 ????? I didn’t get the rest of the number. Did anyone...
Bev: This is great especially since we don’t get any of the gospel stations on our cable.
Meagan: I think this is a great thing. Besides PBS stations and country music stations, I do not know of another secular channel that carries Gaither programs or other Gospel music programming....

DeAnn: Burman Porter is one of the best out there. As it comes to PSQ being in secular venues – they are backing up Wynonne during her Christmas tour and then doing some SGM while Wyonne...
Daniel J. Mount: I’ll say you can blame it on being 25 if you like.
Blame it on whatever you like! Fact is, my reason is simple enough: I have no interest in any secular music.
Amy Rogers: OK, well I tried! Usually people tell me I’m too young, so …
Meagan: I agree, Daniel. I do the same, nowadays, also I have a small bit of interest in secular music as well. I enjoyed the harmonies of Naomi and Wynonna Judds when they performed as The Judds....
Meagan: SG is my primary love, but I do occasionally enjoy listening to other genres.
Meagan: I can’t say that you can blame it on that as I am 25 also and I know of her. Good try though! Haha!
Daniel J. Mount: Oh. And Burman Porter was hardly shabby, either. And Wesley Smith (now of Dixie Echoes fame).
Amy Rogers: I clear forgot about Aaron McCune. I my dad might have some other PSQ music, historical relics by now.
Amy Rogers: I only have about 2,000, and a portion of that is Primitive Quartet.
(jealous pout)
Daniel J. Mount: My interest in PSQ comes from the fact that they had an absolutely incredible lineup when I first discovered Southern Gospel in 2004—John Rulapaugh, Kerry Beatty, Tony Peace, Aaron...

I think I remember him pulling off those long notes when he was with the Kingsmen. What a voice!

Daniel,
I, too, remember when he was with the Kingsmen and pulled those longgggggg holds.
This man has an amazing set of lungs to go with his vocal chords.
When he comes off the end of “how great thou art” into “then sings my soul” he sounds amazingly like James Blackwood. That in itself is a great compliment to anyone!

My favorite long hold he did with the Kingsmen was on “A Place Where the Hungry are Fed.” That’s a good song period, but his voice really put it over the top!

I’m sure I’m in the minority on this but the extensive hold on the note just doesn’t do anything for me. In my mind I’m saying, “OK get it over with!”

Arthur Rice is amazing. If I could chose anybody from any genre of music that I could sing like it would be Arthur Rice.
