I cried the entire time! What great musicians and performers! You will never see another band like the Chairmen of the Board! Much Love and Appreciation, xoxox
I was fortunate enough to see, what I believe to be, Chairmen of the board's final UK appearance in a very small club in west London... I even got to sing a few lines with the General after he hauled me onto the stage... Memories that will live with me forever...
General Johnson and his group played volley ball with our daughter's at the Holiday Inn at North Myrtle Beach back in the 70's...then they allowed us to take the "teens" in to the lounge that night to watch their show. It was the highlight of our vacation!
Had the pleasure of seeing Chairmen of the Board at the Lexington BBQ Festival some years ago. Also had the opportunity to speak with General, Danny and Ken in their dressing room. Got autographs and spoke to them for about fifteen minutes after their show. Couldn't ask for a better group of fellas, very kind and down to earth! RIP General and Danny.
I had the pleasure of seeing General Johnson and Chairmen of the Board on two occasions in different years at Myrtle Beach South Carolina. Sheer brilliance and such gentlemen - super show. They are so well liked in the UK.
One of my best career moments was when General Johnson and Ken Knox came to my gig at the Double Door Inn. This after he had already immortalized my voice by hiring me as a background vocalist on every CD from 1992-2010. There aren't words to express how much General and The Chairmen Of The Board have meant to me over the years. I'm blessed to have had the honor of sharing the stage and countless records with them! 😀
The Chairman of the Board, awesome entertainers. You were going to move whenever you heard their concerts or their CDs. General Norman Johnson was a proliferate Songwriter for himself & other groups.
My grandfather's name was General. It was believed he was named after his grandfather. His grandfather was a Confederate General/ Lawyer. His dad was mixed, (Black and White)
Love 💙 Love this Norman! So many memories to hold close to heart and never be forgotten. Your dad, General Johnson so very blessed with his God given talent throughout his life all those years, touching so many souls and hearts he did. Now watching over, directing as they have and continue to carry on his legacy with Ken Knox, my friend who I adore much and all the others. Bless them all, you Norman and with your dad General Johnson~ R.I.P. 🙏🏻
I love The Beach Boys but I’ll never forget my parents telling me, “Yeah, but they’re not REAL beach music.” It’s why I love General Johnson and the Chairmen of the Board along with all Carolina Beach Music greats.

Very popular in the uk from 1969 till 1973 , personal favourites elmo James and Finder keepers.
@Raymond Bonington I saw them a couple of times in the UK and count myself Lucky.
Yeeeaaahhh 🎵🎶🎵💯💯
Rest Easy Danny Woods
Great group ! Didn't they do a piece titled Nursery Rhymes ? I can't seem to find that on any of the platforms I've checked.
Fantastic .....

Hey Ken we use to hang out in Gastonia NC back in the 90's. Can u guess??
OOH YEAH MY DAD HOOK ME UP ON THEM ALL
g n j class rip
"Welcomed the late.." Wait. I'm confused. General Johnson died but here he is?
Lead singer looks likes Scatman Crothers from ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST/ THE SHINING !
This is upsetting
It sounds so "Brit-ish!"
I love Norman Johnson.. and the Chairman of the board, but he says the band are plaiying for fuck all... hoped they split..Norman The Best Ever Norman Johnson and The Showmen...The chairman of the board
His name was General. His son is Norman.
Classic or just admit you don't know what the word means ^!
BLACK DONT CRACK
Doesn't work for me.
??? care to explain why not?
@@EnochDark it's not important. Don't give him the attention. #knowyourworth
Thought this performance was awful. Sounded flat and out of key and they can do better then that.
The whole thing sounds terrible. Disappointing
I gotta agree there, not a good sound live 👍
