Liberty Quartet is right up there with the Gaithers. I have been to several of their concerts and they just keep getting better and better. Not only do their voices blend perfectly, but they have a ministry through their music that touches the heart for Jesus. I wish everyone could experience their music. It is a real blessing. If you have the chance, don’t miss hearing them.

All this discussion of the Kingdom Heirs, Kirk Talley, Phil Cross, etc. is nice…and I suppose it’s enlightening to those who have a vested interest in those artists.:P

But the DVD being reviwed here is not done by any of those people…it was done by a group who deserve their day in the sun.

Let’s not use this thread as a platform to mount our own gospel music hobby horses, OK?:-)

Kirk wasn’t a member of the KH, but he did fill in for them on occasion at Dollywood when needed back in the early-mid 90’s. I believe he also filled in for a couple of weeks after Rick Strickland left, and maybe again after David Walker left.

RE Kirk Talley video:
Kingdom Heirs back Kirk up on “Joy on the Other Side of Jordan”.
Kirk’s mom & dad sing w/ him on “No One Cared For Me Like Jesus”.
Kirk, Roger & Debra sing “He Is Here”
Kirk w/ Cathedrals from Reunion video singing “I Know A Man”

The rest is Kirk.

Dean Adkins,
Just wondering, was this a video featuring Kirk Talley and the Kindom Heirs, or was Kirk a member?
Is this the video on which Kirk and Steve French are doing a comedy skit, and Steve imitates Bill Clinton ?

CORRECTION of Typo

The correct title of the other song was “He Would Rather Die Than Live Without Me”.

Phil Cross was the Music Minister at our church back in the early 90’s when he wrote “He Had To Hold To Calvary” for an Easter musical that we performed. This was about a year or two before he formed Poet Voices. It’s amazing the number of songs that he wrote or co-wrote for that musical that have been recorded by major SG groups. Not many of them were big hits or even singles, but they were recorded nonetheless. Here is a partial list:

“Jesus Built A Bridge” – the original Poet Voices (I believe this was their first hit)
“Love Beyond Measure” – the original Poet Voices
“He Had To Hold To Calvary” – Kingdom Heirs
“Yes Is The Answer” – Perfect Heart
“Alleluia, He’s Alive” – Greater Vision
“Hold On” – Greenes

Another good song from that musical was called “He Would Rather Die Then Live Without Me”.

Quaid, Steve Lacey sang lead for the KH just prior to Arthur Rice. He joined the KH after leaving Gold City, but was only there for about a year or so.

If you have the Kirk Talley video “Family & Friends”, he is with KH when they sing w/ Kirk.

To Quaid, just thought I’d pass this along. I found an older cd by the KH called Satisfied being a big KH fan I bought it and it has Steve Lacey as one of the members.
