I just noticed a continuity error. Just before Larry Gatlin begins his solo in the second verse, when the camera is on him, Howard, and Vestal, he is wearing a sweater. When the camera cuts to a close up of him, he is no longer wearing a sweater. Then when it cuts to a different angle, he is wearing the sweater again. They must've filmed the beginning of his solo again and edited it in. I wonder why.
I remember when I first saw this. The only thing originally meant to be released was this song. The rest wasn't meant to be released. God knew the impact it woul have:)
Here are the bass singers in order, George, Brock Speer, JD, Brock again, George and JD last. In a later version Rex Nelon, Ray Dean Reese are also heard.
I remember first seeing this videos/song. STILL Love it. Funny thing, If i remember. The video (the homing) wasn't even gonna be released, being that the footage wasn't professional. Bill looked over it & felt fans would love to see it. Thus, the videeo series was born.
Interesting about the very first homecoming video. This music
video was the only thing Bill was gonna release. He took the other footage home from them sitting around, singing, etc. Thought fans would love to see it & Thus the video series was born.
i need to ask. how do you upload so many gaither songs? they don't mind? i'm not reporting you or anything. but seems like the gaithers would be mad someone putting on hundreds of their videos.
actually several of the gaithers have e-mailed me thanking me again and again for posting the clips of them because according to them it has increased their sales and bookings. Aaron Wilburn for example, has been e-mailing with me for over a year and he invited my mom and I to dinner on friday as a thank you.
@doedeedum by uploading this video many people have follow jesus just after listening to thas...so i don't think the gaither would be mad because of thats.....
Wow I had no idea the Gatlins were there from the beginning...It's wonderful seeing Howard Goodman standing!!!! Thank you Ms Hoover for posting this.....
In the 2:33 segment of the Where Could I Go? Video, you'll find the Happy Goodman Family of Gospel Music Fame. Howard is the big fella sitting and Vestal is the middle one on the first row; Sam is the first one on the back row and Rusty is the last one on the back row. I am guessing the other women are Essie Mae and Stella Goodman. Does anyone know for sure who they are?
Actually first in the back row is Bill Huie who sang bass with them for a bit. Three of the four sisters are there. The other three could either be Eloise, Gussie Mae, Stella, or Ruth
The ones I know of are Howard and Vestal Goodman, J.D. Sumner, Hovie Lister, Jake Hess, George Younce, Brock Spear, James Blackwood, and Glen Payne. And these are just the ones that are singing live. There are many more in the old video clips and stills.
What a song. I've got the cassette & video. Just a note of trivia, the music video was meant to promote the ccd/cassette. The rest of the video was never meant to be released. God had other plans though! :)
So true! One of my favorite songs; thank you Jesus for your sweet spirit that I feel as I listen to this song..It's beautiful!!!! Thanks for posting...
wow
