March 03, 2003

Can you believe it's March already? Why just yesterday we were putting up the Christmas tree and wrapping presents. And it seems like yesterday that we were changing diapers and washing bottles and rocking little ones to sleep. But, no the little ones are all grown up and rocking their own now. Where does time go? Have you ever really thought about it? There was a time in my life when 25 years seemed so long. To be married for 25 years...to be on a job for 25 years... At this stage in my life 25 years is but a few minutes.

This life really is a vapor. We have so little time before it vanishes. I challenge you today to take the time to appreciate these minutes and years of our life. Have you hugged someone today? Have you said those three little words, "I Love You" to someone today? Take time and do so before you wake up and 25 years have passed.

And while you are at it, hug a Southern Gospel Artist next time you see them and tell them "Thanks for the time!"

Daryl Williams The Songwriter

So you want to write a song! Or maybe you've just completed one. Great! You are now one of fourteen million songwriters in America alone. That's right, FOURTEEN MILLION Americans claim to be songwriters. But out of those fourteen million, only FOURTEEN HUNDRED have ever made even one penny from a song they have written <<More>> Leave a comment!


Legacy Five

Rating:

Legacy Five - London

No doubt in my mind, this is the best project that Legacy Five has made to date. Following in the footsteps of their mentors, The Cathedral Quartet, Daywind took this fine group of men over to London, England, where the London Philharmonic Orchestra performed the sound tracks on many of these songs. Needless to say, the tracks are phenomenal. <<More>> Leave a comment!

Deon's Radio Picks

Living Sacrifice – “Gonna Shout”
Wow, this one is something nifty and different. The intro is very 50’s Rock and Roll, so it surely gets your attention. Once they are into the song, it goes pretty well SG. Then the interlude gets you back into that neat 50’s feel. Add to all of this a great message to the song and a really big ending, and this one could really be a hit for them. TREAT your listeners to this one. This cut is well deserving of my “sleeper of the week” position. Zion Music Group - Compilation # 3 - cut # 6

Talley Trio
– “I Love The Lord”
The Talleys do a great job on this soulful song written by Black Gospel Singer Richard Smallwood. They effectively capture the feel of this song. It’s very worshipful, and when they add the last chorus of the very worshipful “soulful” song, “Total Praise”, it will lift you to the rafters. They do a great job on this one, and though I’m not sure it will chart very high, I believe that it will and should get a ton of airplay. Your listeners deserve to hear this musical blessing. Crossroad Airplay Sampler – March 2003 – cut # 1

Gaither Vocal Band – “Knowing You’ll Be There”
Grab a hanky and just enjoy this tear-jerker. Guy Penrod does a great job expressing the feeling of this song. It really is a “heaven” song with a message of hope in the reality of death. This song can be a real comfort to those who are going through the rough experience of losing a loved one. You need to play this one. This one may not chart very high either, but it will certainly bless a lot of hurting people in their time of need. Do you listeners a favor and play this one. Gaither Radio Series – Volume I – cut # 1

Best Of Friends
– “Chains Gone, Set Free”
Grab your cowboy hat, because this one has a “country” flair to it, but it is really good. Featuring the trio of Karen Peck Gooch, singing the lead on this cut, Joyce Martin McCullough, and Sheri Easter, this lively number will probably do well on the charts. It will fit well into the Drive Time spots. Spring Hill Compilation Series – Volume # 1 – 2003 – cut # 1

Leon,
I first met you at West Decatur
Church of God, When you were inSunday Edition. I still have some of your records. You guys were the first Southern Gospel group I ever heard, and you got
me started in Gospel Music. I sing in a group called the Living Water Trio. This is our third season. The Lord has been working every where we go. Praise the Lord! I'm glad you're
still in Gospel Music God Bless You!
