I wish I could remember The King Family. They sound wonderful.What network did they appear on? I had no idea Tina could play an instrument, I knew from MTS as Katie, she had a lovely voice.
Man, am I waxing nostalgic. My parents had them on one Christmas when I can still remember the silver Christmas tree with the color light filter rotating. Beautiful memories.
Thank goodness for Youtube, I was searching for the King Family for years. There are times I become nastolgic and yearn for the former variety shows and Youtube provides these type of shows due to someone posting them. I clearly remember the King Family specials and I loved them, always wondered what happen to them They all were so beautiful and handsome. I miss those family variety shows. The closest we get to a variety show these days is watching Dancing with the Stars.
Aw...Sweet little petite Vonnie-- ^_^ We've just been reintroduced to the King Sisters, Family, Cousins,etc al. (thank you PBS!!!) and I just read that she's recently passed... Our prayers go out to the entire family-- Know that you all are in our thoughts! Bless you all for bringing us such joy ^_^
I can't believe I'm related to such wonderful singers! I am 13 and absolutely admire my cousins! Tina is the one I am most familiar with, though! I know I am related to them because my grandmother has told me all about who's who, how we are related, etc. I love the Kings. Driggs, I guess they are... (Most, anyway[?]) Not very clear but I loved the magical talking guitar. Alvino's? Hmm... -Maisie Ann Smith, 13 Utah.
I'm a Black Man and I was a little boy when the King Family use to have their specials. When I ask my family and friends do they remember them they all say NO and I'm out of my mind. I tell them that they were really hot at the time and one of the sisters was on the tv show "My thress Sons" She was married to "Rob" the oldest son in the show. But no one seem to recall any of this but me. Thanks for posting, because I now have some proof! A BIG THANK YOU!!!!
TINA COLE and she was shortly engaged to Don Grady - who played the oldest son, but then they broke up. She's still beautiful and very active in many projects.
That's a really interesting observation. I remember the King Family, too, but I never paid much attention to them. I only remember that they were on around the holidays and other times during the year. I think they had their own variety show. Wow! That's a real stretch for the old memory.
What a great vid! Such a treat to hear this again after so many years. The King Sisters' arrangement and performance of "It's A Grand Night For Singing" is something special indeed!
are any of the king family specials availible on dvd?i watched them all on tv when i was a kid,i had a crush on a little girl on one of the shows,we were about the same age then,i think her name was lorette(laurette?).
Such a simpler time. Makes me sad.
