  • Michal Storm from One Life to Life was a visiting co-host and together we welcomed The Oak Ridge Boys. They sang "Elvira" and others for us.The lineup which produced their most world-famous and most well-known country and crossover hits (such as "Elvira", "Bobbie Sue", and "American Made") consists of Duane Allen (lead), Joe Bonsall (tenor), William Lee Golden (baritone), and Richard Sterban (bass). Golden and Allen joined the group in the mid-1960s, and Sterban and Bonsall joined in the early 1970s.

    Omg love love this! I actually met Richard and his beautiful wife last year . Was waitressing at a restaurant in Sevierville Tn.
    I don’t know how I knew who he was I just did! I felt it .
    I love the older music and the older artists , I am 51 yrs of age so I guess that’s why .
    I ask Richard for his autograph and he was very kind and didn’t hesitate at all we had a nice friendly conversation.
    Richard spoke of how he met his gorgeous wife on a cruise he said he wished that he had one of his albums with him to sign and leave for me .
    That’s ok though I will treasure his autograph forever . xoxo

      It's more like they've intentionally suppressed Steve's memory than forgotten him. They stopped performing his songs live as soon as William returned. Then 15 years later when they made the album _It's Only Natural_ and remade some of the hits which featured Steve, William Lee did not sing any of Steve's solo/lead parts. I'd like someone to answer why that decision was made!
      Hopefully they are playing, will play songs from Steve's era on their current farewell tour. Hopefully...

      @@TonyM132 Apparently, Golden is not the singer that Steve Sanders was. Golden does not seem to have the personality or the desire to go out in front. Duane Allen tells the story (in some other RUclips video) that he maded the decision that Golden would be the lead singer on "Thank God For Kids"--but he could not get Golden to learn the song. Then he got Bonsall to sing the song as a demo for Golden and finally Golden learned the song and recorded it. The song, with Golden in front and in the lead, became a big hit and a permanent part of the Oak Ridge Boys' act.

All that we know is that the Lord didn't put a stop to what happened in any way. I can't help but wonder if Steve did it because of the way that people saw him when he was a kid singing about the Lord. He eventually had to say at some point that he wasn't Jesus, but then maybe later on, he thought to himself, "We are supposed to be like him though, aren't we? He came down here to die for us and so maybe I am supposed to as well." Only the Lord knows what was going on in Steve's mind while in that bathroom.

      @@SweetHeartHolly1982 What Jesus wants to tell Peter in John 13:10 is that those who are gods children are clean. The greek word for bathing is the same as to baptize. Even when we do something wrong, we still are gods children. Not even a suicide can divide us from him.
      Unfortunately, there is a common misconception about sin in many churches. They restrict their teachings about sin to deeds (including deeds with our minds and mouths). But the bible talks about sin in a threefold was: a path, a state, deeds. Since Jesus cleansed us, our state is that of a clean person. Since Jesus leads our way, we are on a good path, even when we stumble now and then. A single deed can't separate us from god. It is like having to wash our feet. But it is not falling in a state of impurity.
      Thus, considering all of the bible's teachings about sin is the best comfort, we can get.
      And, thus, we can also be made sure that Steve is indeed with our Lord!

      @@kennyhuskisson2684 You lucky rascal!!! I've seen Gladys Knight in person in Chapel Hill a few years ago 😀, but my mom got a high five from her,as soon as I called out her name as she was coming down the aisle in the auditorium 👍😁. My mom's favorite singer of course is The Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin 😢💔🌹 who she named me after in 1963. She passed away on my late grandmother's birthday in August the 16th,2018👼😢💔🌹. The late Aretha Franklin would have been 77 years old March the 25th,2020. Wow, I'm still sad to this day My mom grew up listening to her music all through high school and now at 80 years old. She's also a breast cancer survivor. But those Oak Ridge Boys are awesome 👌 to listen to. 👍😀My mom has a CD by them and so do I.😀 LOL because they are both the same CD's with the song "Elvira" on it!!! I love to hear a singer with a nice bass voice 😊. Such as the late Barry White.😢💔 You have a great ear for music 👌 my friend 😊👍. That's coming from my heart 💖. I also sing in the choir at my church. Soprano is my voice range. I sang in chorus in high school. Until then please take care of yourself and your family ok. Be blessed my friend 👋🙏❤️.
