The doors of Old Bethel Baptist Church stood open (as you will soon find out, in regards to the title of this review, that’s NOT a good thing!) Anyway, the church sign stood tall reading, “The Whisnants in concert – 7 PM.” I parked my vehicle and joined the others in our march towards the…
After deciding which DVD I wanted to review next, I sat down on the couch, popped in the round disc of the Talley’s and watched this family pour out their hearts on their 2011 video release, He’s Alive. From an old quartet song to a hymn, radio hits and some of their most popular songs…
On the last night of Singing in the Sun, I walked in the auditorium while the Allen Family began singing Turn Your Radio On as a male quartet. “How many remember that song?” asked their father, Todd Allen. He went on to explain the absence of their oldest son and then introduced There’s Life in…
In April of 2013, Greater Vision released their new CD For All He’s Done…within it, are some of the most beautiful words you will ever hear. In a proper review, I’d outline Greater Vision’s history and all the ways their successful career in Southern Gospel Music has had fans sitting on the edge of their…
On Friday night, we had a great line up at Singing in the Sun; the Mark Trammell Quartet, Ivan Parker, the Talley’s, the Pfeifers and the Booth Brothers – it was awesome!

I think it’s pretty safe to say that not every Gospel Sing you attend has a whale painted on the side of the building…but the Myrtle Beach Convention Center does! If you’re in Myrtle Beach, SC in mid-April, you can walk right in that convention center and enjoy Singing in the Sun. This five day…
It was close to ten after seven in the evening on September 11, 2012 when the announcer at the National Quartet Convention introduced the next group to main stage, “Ladies and gentlemen…the Mark Trammell Quartet!” So it began, the live taping of what now is MTQ’s current DVD, Live in Louisville, displaying eight of the…
The theme for May can be wrapped up in one word – grow! We all know the saying, “April showers bring May flowers.” Well, rain (water source) helps flowers to grow, and life can sure pour down some thundershowers on our lives. Maybe its doing so now in yours, so why don’t we use that…
It’s May already, can you believe it? Though time sure has passed quickly here in Missouri, what I find hard to believe is that three hours from my home, snow was falling on the ground! In May! In fact, Greater Vision drove through some of it last night! Forgive me for starting off on a…
