Video: The Collingsworth Family in 2000

Posted in: Videos — Daniel J. Mount @ 8:06 am

Here’s a blast from the past: The Collingsworth Family singing “Then Came the Morning” in 2000.

Well before anyone ever heard of them (well, Troy and Keith, I guess you’re exceptions!), they already had that special touch that would make them a household name in Gospel music. Though, I must say, their stage presence has improved just a little: Phil doesn’t stand behind the mixer anymore!

The video notes say April 22, 2008, but based on two other videos the same user posted, the date is correct but the year is 2000.

Sirius adds XM’s enLighten

Posted in: News, Radio — Daniel J. Mount @ 7:58 am

A few hours ago, Southern Gospel fans with access to the Sirius satellite radio network got what they had been hoping for since the XM/Sirius merger: Sirius added XM’s Southern Gospel station, enLighten, to its lineup, as Sirius Channel 67. This expands the station’s reach by 17 million households, plus millions more who have DirecTV and DishTV.

Marlin Taylor remains at the helm of the station and says that no significant programming changes are planned.

XM is about to celebrate its 4th anniversary; it was launched as an online-only station on November 15th, 2004. A year later, November 2005, it was an included channel when DirecTV added the XM music channels. It joined XM’s satellite lineup in April 2006.

  • Gaither Programming to debut on Hallmark (4)
    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....
    
  
  
  • Palmetto State to appear on Oprah (25)
    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...
    
  
  
  • Signature Sound leaving Gaither tour? (31)
    Meagan: On the other hand, there are often people at Family Fest that do not regularly tour with the Gaithers.
    Benjamin: Let me start by saying that I am big a fan of EHSSQ. I attended an intimate video taping for their new Christmas album that will appear on the Gospel Music Channel this Christmas. There...
    martha: Sad that EHSS will not be with the Homecoming Tour when they come to New Brunswick this spring. (( But, I wish them the best non-the-less and I sure hope they continue to appear on some...
