This was my secret " country" pick when I was a cool hippy chick. Lol. Richard Sterban's wonderful bass addition of "Giddyup, ba oom, papa oom, papa mow mow" would blast on my parents stereo when no one was home. Pure joy!!! Joe Bonsall's rich tenor vocal so high and clear, drove this energetic performance to perfection. Sorry to see he recently passed. 💔Knew you'd love it Harri, Tennessee's finest, had your braids swinging. 😂😂 Great reaction. Wonderful selection Imadrummin. 👏👏🥁🥁 Cheers from Canada ❤❤🇨🇦🇨🇦
I recently started collecting the Oak Ridge Boys discography. Two days later, I read Joe Bonsall (tenor singer) passed away at age 76 of ALS. Joe for me was the one you kept watching of the four. That infectious smile and energy. Thank you Joe Bonsall. RIP.🙏🙏🙏
Time waits for none of us, Imadrummin! I can't imagine being diagnosed with ALS. Classy gesture, brother, choosing this iconic tune by the Oak Ridge Boys! May God rest your soul, Joe Bonsall. 🙏
Years ago, I was walking through the assembly department of a factory I worked at, several of the lines had radios. This comes on one radio station and like a tidal wave every other radio tuned to that station and yes a lot of us sang along.
This song is on my Playlist from it being constantly being played here on the farm the whole summer when it came out. All the guys in the family tried to hit those low notes. A memorable song.
Glad you are checking out this great country gospel band. Elvira was a huge hit for the ORB in 1981. You need to check out the collaboration they did with Home Free for this song "Elvira". The Oak Ridge Boys had a lot of hits. Check out their fun song called "Bobbie Sue". Sadly we just lost their tenor Joe Bonsall a few days ago.
J.D. and The Stamps Quartet joined Elvis in November of 1971. Elvis had two backup bass singers with Richard onboard. Richard left the group and joined The Oakridge Boys in late October of 1972.
When I was 8 or 9, this song came out and I always loved it when it played on radio. It was one of the coolest songs and I loved singing along to it. Good memories!
I knew that you were gonna love this one. After your reactions to the Statler Brothers (espeically Harold Reid), the Oaks (with their bass Richard Sterban) were the obvious next group. And I just noticed someone said that Joe Bonsall had died. RIP and thanks for the music.
How would you feel about having some more "diamonds" in your ears? For me?... A Basso Profondo+love song="Dream On" (Richard Sterban, singing lead on that one). Totally fell for his bass voice with THAT song. IF you want to do it.... I'll listen. ;) Thank you for our reaction. I appreciate.
The Oak Ridge Boys actually began in 1943. They were strictly a gospel group originally. I think the last original member left in the 1960s. They switched to secular music around the start of the 1970s, I think. By the time they got famous, they were a completely different group than what they'd been for most of their previous career.
Harry, if you want another joy giving song from The Oak Ridge Boys, you really should give their song "Everyday" a listen :) Oh, and if you want more of Richard Sterban's voice, listen to their song called "Dream On" where he sings lead.
@@agnetesorensenelbom5085 Agnete, these guys formed 15 minutes away from my house. Legendary. Here is a great wiki of them. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Oak_Ridge_Boys Hope you find time to read about them. True gentlemen and talent off the charts. Enjoy the read.
If you like bass singers Harri, you need to check out J.D.Sumner, GUINNESS WORLD BOOK RECORD HOLDER as the LOWEST BASS IN THE WORLD! He was a backup singer for Elvis Presley and heard in many of Elvis videos and recordings. He won the GUINNESS AWARD with the song BLESSED ASSURANCE.
In concert, that low bass part made the seats vibrate. I was 22 and fell in love with Richard Sterban's bass voice!

In memory of Joe Bonsall. 🙏🙏🙏
That was lovely my friend. ❤❤ @Imadrummin
Definitely Country. I wish they were still around singing. One of my favorites. ❤
First, R.I.P. Joe! One of the first concerts I went to was Oaks touring support this album “Fancy Free”. Crowd was loving it!

The guy with the bass voice was with Elvis for about a year.

2 songs forever etched on my brain: The Devil Went Down to Georgia and It's a Heartache. From a tobacco patch radio CONSTANTLY playing them.
Everything about this song is perfect.
The Oak Ridge Boys are absolute legends.

he did react to Home Free singing it with the ORB October 2021
Yes, well said Dagmar....as usual.👍👍👍
In 1970, Bass singer Richard Sterban was in J.D. Sumner and the Stamps who were back up male quartet for Elvis Presley.

Love this song. What’s not to love? Thanks Harri and Imadrummin 🌺✌️
Much appreciated Debbie!!!😀😀😀
Bobbie sue is another good one. We saw them live at the grand ole opry

Back when cars had cassette players in their dashboards we used to listen to this CD while driving to the family reunion. :) Great memories.
The bass voice is that of Richard Sterban.

It's a fun song
I was not into country music as a kid like my Mom and Dad. They were one of those groups with a sound that just made them good to hear every time )

Everyday is such a great song Rebel. You have great taste my friend. 👍👍👍
I just stumbled across this song a couple of weeks ago and I think I put it on a list. 😂 Great song Imadrummin and Harri.
Awesome to hear Cynthia.!👍
Harri - you reacted to Home Free singing this with the Oak Ridge Boys October 2021
I still have this 45 record from back in the day! We about wore it out!❤
Good reaction to a great song. Thank you. This song always reminded me of a song by the Coasters entitled "Searchin"
Fantastic reaction!! 😊
Elvira late night horror tv hostess….Elvira
Love this one ❤ New to me 🧐🙃😅 Thank you Ima and Harri 🎉🎉🎉
Agnete, they had 17 #1 hits on the country charts. There is a good wikipedia article if you want to know more. 👍👍👍
@@Imadrummin That would be great

It's Pronounced "Ell " Vie - Ra " Elvira. This is one of the Oak Ridge Boy's biggest and best songs.
They are country. they started out as gospel singers.
I never hear anyone react to this group . Thank you! You should react to The Statler Brothers doing The Class of 57 (Had its Dreams).
I know the song but don't know who sang the song that I heard. The Oak Ridge Boys did it right
When this song first came out, I thought they were saying “well, fire up”
The Oaks were great but as far as harmony and blend, I always pick the Statlers
LOVE ALL THERE SONGS BUT THEIR BEST IS EASILY DREAM ON
It's funny because in my language - portuguese - it's pronounced the way you firstly did!! 😉😉
The next Oaks song you might like is Bobbie Sue. It has similar vibes.
Look up " Elvira - Misstress Of The Night ".
Check out HOME FREE and THE OAK RIDGE BOYS doing this one together. More 💎 for your ears!
Here's one that no one else has reacted to thus far. Oak Ridge Boys - "I'll Be True To You". Forewarning! It's sad lol!
This is a cover song. But you need to check out Elvira that they sing this song about an 1981
Hi Mr. Harri, I am assuming U heard the Oak Ridge Boys say the name of this Song.. and it is nah•tra not naa•tra ♠Mr.G..
This is not the original. It's a cover which was originally done by Dallas Frazier, but I think the Oak Ridge Boys' version is so much better.
The Oak Ridge boys have a country vibe because they are country. You don’t have a name like Oak Ridge boys unless you are a country band
Listen to jd sommer he can sing way lower . if you like bass singers
Richard is one of the lowest bass singers in history- he can get WAY lower than he goes on this song. Him & Harold Reid, both are awesome. RIP Joe!
