Alabama: How They Started Singing (Bill Gaither Interview) | More Than The Music Ep. 03

[@shawnn5213]

Awesome group. I have seen them in concert three times and they always were top of their game. They are true Country. Nashville would do well to take notes from Alabama

[@superlion1071]

Just saw them on the 50th anniversary tour. Show was amazing!

I've always loved Alabama. My brothers and Sisters were raised pretty much like these guys. Our mother and grandmother taught us music and harmony when we were little, and we were liable to break out into a four-part acapella tune pretty much anywhere, lol. And to Brother Gaithers' point; every time but one, I was stopped by the law when I was listening to music. "Highway Song" was the culprit on one or more. My older Brother, R.V. (May He rest in peace) was stopped going through a small East Alabama town on his way to classes at Jacksonville State one morning for speeding and running a stop sign (while singing, of course). In his court appearance, the Judge, a musician and singer, instead of talking about the case asked him to help him find the right note in a particular song the Judge sang. I think it was a 'sixth' note rather than a more common harmony note. The two practiced the song a few times until the Judge was satisfied he 'had' it. My brother's reputation for harmony had preceded him it seemed, lol. The Judge, ever the fair-minded civic leader, did make R.V. pay the ticket by requiring R.V.s group to sing at the town's🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟 annual festival, if memory serves me right.

Randy just can’t beat, that high pitch laugh!!!😆😆❤️❤️❤️

I went to a few June Jams and really miss going to them and I believe Alabama loved their fans and fans loved them. I've got no complaints about them even stayed in Fort Payne a night or two sleeping in my car with a friend Roll on Alabama

[@mansourbellahel-hajj5378]

My favourite music from them is Song of the South. It explains the great depression through an exciting music.

Hello there thanks for your support are you one of my biggest fan??

[@eliyahuhey]

Jeff’s wife worked with my mom when she was pregnant with me when mom n dad lived in Fort Payne. Someone set our house on fire, mom n dad had to move into a camper and run over to Gadsden to give birth to me. Mom n dad used to follow those guys to Myrtle Beach all the time to hear em all play. My first concert was Alabama.

[@calebfleming2570]

A fellow Gadsden regional baby here. there's a unique quality to our side of northern Alabama. Such amazing people

[@southpawbillings9292]

[@Ries1948]

Where is the fourth member of Alabama ( the drummer)?

[@duyguylmaz5258]

Süper 👍👍👍👍😻:):)::):):):)☆♡

[@stevenford4313]

Teddy looks just like my middle brother.

[@shannonsmith1522]

He looks like my cousin...

[@colemoore2108]

He looks like my dad

[@pokerwiz101]

wow those are some heavy haired wigs

[@uncleelmer]

Teddy, Randy and Jeff did not do right by Mark Herndon. He played an intricate role in their success and putting him on as a "salaried employee" was wrong.

[@adriantomlin1362]

I agree, Mark was with then thru thick and thin and to stick a knife in his back was wrong!!!!

[@SalGL]

It was an accounting error. My daddy (Teddy) found out off the news. When they went back out they asked him but he was not only playing with Leah Seawright, but also married and flies private jets. They are all ok with each other, and I haven't seen more people out for blood. Yes, Mark was an artist in the band. But it has been over a decade and people still spread lies not ever thinking about the families. Please before you bash my family, how would you feel? Love each other, take care of one another. I love you and God loves you

[@timberman1045]

Sally Gentry Thanks Sally I knew what happened with Mark . The guys did nothing wrong nor is Mark upset with them . Thanks 🙏

[@timberman1045]

Tell Teddy hello 👋

[@SalGL]

Patrick Estes Thank you my friend. God Bless ❤️

[@rkf2746]

Why doesn't anyone ever ask them about how they screwed their drummer?

[@donaldbeard6231]

These guys are straight they only do females lol Roll Tide

[@amandaowen8251]

Because they didn’t. Most don’t know the true story.

[@AJT-zy9ok]

If they haven't already done so. The two remaining members of the group should make peace with their former drummer. You can't get back the lost time, but they should find a way to make peace with Mark. I only learned in recent years how dirty they did him.

[@tracyhayes5911]

It’s a shame how they doing Mark Herndon
