This is a tribute album to some of Bill Gaither's departed musical friends. They are George Younce, Jake Hess, Bob Cain, Rusty Goodman, Rex Nelon, Brock Speer and Howard and Vestal Goodman. They all get three tracks except for the Goodman's who get four, so the album represents very good value with 21 tracks. There are some very familiar songs such as "This Ole House" and "Suppertime", intermixed with some less familiar material. Bill Gaither has made a very good selection as all the music and lyrics are of a very high quality, but I particularly enjoyed Brock Speer's rendition of "He Touched Me", which Elvis once recorded (it is a little known fact that Brock Speer sang back-up on some of Elvis's first RCA recordings). I think this CD ought to do very well as a memento to some much loved Southern gospel singers.
