On the Jubilee this Memorial Day weekend … you’ll begin with the old and travel all the way to the new! Leading off … it’s the legendary Sego Brothers and Naomi … and their 1974 concert performance, Live at Hallelujah Square.

Then, the music takes a brief break so you can enjoy a story or two by the legendary storyteller, Wendy Bagwell.

Finally, to round out this week’s Jubilee … you’ll hear the first portion of a recently recorded performance by the Fair Haven Quartet that took place at the Old Barn Theater in Renfro Valley, Kentucky. Even if you don’t recognize the Fair Haven name, you’re likely familiar with their much requested song, Who Moved the Piano.

On this last weekend of 2012 … it’s mostly about the Crabb Family! Yes, a full hour-and-a-quarter of fairly early Crabb Family music … a performance which took place in the year 2000 at the Mountain Arts Center in Prestonsburg, Kentucky … one that’s titled Live From Kentucky.

You’ll hear such songs as “The Lamb, the Lion and the King” along with a medley of father Gerald’s favorite compositions.

Then the Jubilee will close out the evening with a story or two from the legendary storyteller, Wendy Bagwell!

Bill Gaither and Gerald Williams

On the weekend of May 19^th … with Gerald Williams’ recent announcement that he and the Melody Boys Quartet will retire following a concert this coming New Year’s Eve … the Jubilee brings you a recorded performance that celebrated the group’s 50 years of singing Southern Gospel music . . . that was 13 years ago in a concert at the Geyer Springs First Baptist Church in Little Rock, Arkansas, the same church that will be hosting their “grand finale” celebration in December.

Then, the evening will close out with a couple of stories from that legendary storyteller, Wendy Bagwell!

On the broadcast for the weekend of January 14^th … it’s a full 60 minutes of the best of the best … today’s top groups in Southern Gospel, delivering their best performances on the stage of Freedom Hall in Louisville during the 2008 National Quartet Convention. Yes, leading off with Gold City to the Booth Brothers and the Hoppers to Brian Free & Assurance … you’ll hear them all!
