To me, this was the best all round Southern Gospel Quartet to grace the stage in my life time. I went to see them many times during the 80's, and walked away every time feeling blessed and in awe. There were other great singing groups out there, and still is today, but Gold City Quartet touched my heart strings then more than ever.

And then He will send His angels, and gather together His elect from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven.” Mark 13:26-27 The world will see the Son coming in the clouds with great power and glory. (Mark 13:26-27) His Second Coming will begin when angels gather the dead in Christ. (Mat. 24:30-31, 1 Thes. 4:14-16) Then, in a moment, they will catch up alive believers on earth. (1 Thes. 4:17) His bride will be taken before the throne of God in heaven. (Rev. 7:9-17; 21:9-10) (Chart: Second Coming)

I remember a joint G.C. and Kingsmen Qt performance in Anniston about that time. The Kingsmen's bus broke down so G.C. did another set so the fans would get a full show. They were gracious and there for ministry. After the show, they stayed for over an hour to sign autographs, shook hands and talked SGM with everyone. As I recall, they offered a 4-tape special for $5. Our staff at my computer store wore those tapes out, and we all enjoyed singing with the best gospel quartet each day.
