  • For the Oak Ridge Boys, It's Only Natural and It's Only at Cracker Barrel
    September 19, 2011 For the Oak Ridge Boys, It's Only Natural and It's Only at Cracker Barrel New CD Released with Five New Songs and Seven Rerecorded Hits Including "Elvira" LEBANON, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- The Oak Ridge Boys' latest CD, It's Only Natural, pays homage to their history while making some more history as it debuts exclusively at all Cracker Barrel Old Country Store® locations today. The CD features fresh cuts of their biggest hits and five new songs, including "Sacrifice …For Me" which was written by Joe Bonsall and is dedicated to America's fallen heroes. Newly inducted into the Grand Ole Opry®, these members of the Oak Ridge Boys came together in 1973. Richard Sterban, Duane Allen, William Lee Golden and Joe Bonsall began as gospel singers, became a top act in country music and then crossed over to pop with the monster hit "Elvira" in 1981. The song became their fourth No. 1 country hit, reached No. 5 on the pop charts, won the group a Grammy® award and went on to become one of only a handful of singles ever to go double platinum. In honor of "Elvira's" thirtieth anniversary, the group rerecorded the song, along with former Top Ten Billboard hits "Lucky Moon," "No Matter How High," "Gonna Take a Lot of River," "Beyond Those Years" and "True Heart" on It's Only Natural. New songs on the CD are "What'cha Gonna Do," "Wish You Could Have Been There," "Before I Die," "The Shade" and "Sacrifice…for Me." "We think it's pretty special to have The Oak Ridge Boys' thirtieth anniversary rerecording of ‘Elvira' on a CD in our exclusive music program," said Cracker Barrel Marketing Manager Julie Craig.

I’m still a fan of the group today. Being in The Oak Ridge Boys is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.” The two, along with tenor Joe Bonsall and baritone William Lee Golden, comprise one of Country's truly legendary acts.

  • Gene Watson Fan Club Newsletter
    Gene Watson Fan Club Newsletter August, 2021 75th Diamond Edition Dear Friends - Can you believe this is our 75th newsletter? That’s why we are calling this our 75th Diamond Edition. Sounds fancy don’t you think? We’re just glad you’re still reading our newsletter and still being the loyal fans that you are. You are why I get to sing for my living. I never forget that and I always appreciate you. The band and I have been enjoying our shows more than ever since we had to go so long without being able to sing for you. We’ve also been fortunate to get back onto the Opry stage. We truly enjoy the family atmos- phere that you can feel at the Opry so we go as often as we can and in fact, our next appearance is Friday, August 27th. I’m not sure what songs we’ll sing yet but I expect we’ll be on close to 7PM since we’ll have to head right out to get on the road to Winchester, OH. Another exciting thing is the new music in the works. I plan to get back to the studio in a couple of weeks and that has kept me busy, working on song selections and more. It always takes far longer than I expect to get everything done after the recording sessions are finished. All that licensing and stuff that I’m glad to turn over to other people takes time, then there’s getting artwork approved and more. I’ll just have to let you know as its coming along what we expect the release date will be.
