  • I hesitated to post this. The quality is lacking. And it was my first and one of few tv appearances I got to do with them. I had just turned 18 and just played on TWO WINNING HANDS and CALL ME GONE. Its many years ago and my playing isn't the greatest. I was scared to death. But I thought there are so many Hinson fans that are wanting to see anything at all that we have, that I'd share this too. I have a few others that I might share if this goes well without much embarrassment. haha.. It had rained all day this day and was still pouring. Yet the people at Opryland, (primarily a COUNTRY audience), couldn't seem to leave. That was the thing about this group. It was hard to leave in the middle of one of their services, shows are whatever you want to call it. At any rate, I miss my buddy Kenny. I hope you can enjoy this.

    One of the best vocalists of all time. I'd listen to him sing the phone book.

    Love this song. Ronny Hinson was just at Jimmy Swaggart church in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, almost a year ago. Then he was on "Story of the Song," a program that Donnie Swaggart has on Sunday nights. He talked more about his life it was really amazing and awesome! God Bless ❤

    I visited Kenny's grave recently. There were no flowers. What a shame. I only had enough money on me to purchase a singly white rose from the little florist at the gates. He should have flowers.

    Saw them at the all-night sing in Bonifay, Florida in the summer of 1975. They were all so nice to me. Bought their album Touch of Hinson and got them all to autograph it. Still have that album and that night was one of the best memories of my life.

    Dirk, as we always fondly referred to you as Jesus when we worked on One More Hallelujah, you've always had a perfect pitch, and a joy to listen to you! You always been a master at what you do! A joy to even know you. A privilege to have been in the studio to watch you work!

    These guys are good. I would like to hear more from them. My brother's and were traveling on I95 going to Florida back in the early 80's. I think we met this group at a truck stop. My brother got to talking to them. They invited him and his wife onto there bus. They gave them a copy of there album. I'm almost positive it was this group. There good people.

    Dirk, make no apologies, you were great then, and you will always be great. Out off the 25 albums that I have recorded , the music that you put on the one we did in Big Stone Gap @ Maggard's is untouchable. When I worked at Lowes in Kingsport, it was always a thrill when your dad would come in and spend much of his time talking with me. Love the Hinsons and love you Dirk. God Bless.

    As a pedal steel player myself, and just a little older than you, I can say you were well ahead of me when I was 18. I didn't hear anything fancy, but it was solid and good ...even at that age. I have fond memories of the Hinsons. I would have loved to have worked more in Southern Gospel music but by the time I was actually good enough, the landscape had changed for steel players. Really nice to finally find and hear this one.

  • @wayne-brock7515
    @wayne-brock7515 7 років тому +2

    That is awesome, you got to play with the Original Hinson back then. I too miss Kenny Hinson. Thank you for posting this. I've first seen this when it first came on the air back then. You sounded good back then and of course over the years like some of us who plays an instrument like I do, we get better in time. God Bless You Dirk Johnson.

    Dirk J, Thank you so very much for posting this video, I have to say that you guys were the very best! This was just around the time that you guys recorded lift the roof off right? That remains to this day one of the very best recordings EVER! Kenny was one of the best singers that we will hear PERIOD, even to this day! I traveled with Bo for about a year and was traveling with him when Kenny passed, it is hard to believe that it has been this many years! In my humble opinion there will never be another group like this particular version of the Hinson's. Please understand that I am not saying the other versions of the band were not amazing because they were, Kelly B was an awesome addition and remains one of the very best guitarists in Nashville without a doubt, but the voices of this particular crew ( Kenny, Ronnie, Yvonne, and Eric) was a hard one to beat! I hope this message finds you well, Blessings to you Bro Thanks again for blessing us with the post!

  • @redmondsmusic

    In my mind, Kenny Hinson is in the same league and on the same echelon with Merle Haggard, George Jones, Marty Robbins, etc. And actually and technically, I think Kenny was a better singer than all of them. But his undying commitment to the Lord such that he actually turned down a few country music deals with major Nashville labels is what sets him apart the most.

  • @DIRKWORKS2
    @DIRKWORKS2  11 років тому +9

    Bill, the steel player is a 15 yr old Scott Sanders. He's since played on a lot of records as well. There have been a lot of great session players come out of this band. (and I am not including myself as one of those.... just saying...;-)
