Rest in peace, Joe Bonsall. I'm so glad I got to see the guys "live."

[@maryyoung1602]

They still “have it”!-That bass voice stills “melts lead”! ❤🎤🎼🎹🥁! Love this too much!

[@kenckman1359]

All of you guys are timeless. Will always be a part of my memory forever. And I'm 60

[@loislane4583]

They still sounded amazing.... WOW!!

[@earlputnal9124]

I just wished Richard Sterban could sing as low as a bass singer as his uncle used to be. LOL

[@dragondreamer2662]

40 years and it sounds not a day older than when it was first released, bravo

[@juliestuckey9475]

They still have it after all these years!!! Can't get enough of that bass, tho!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hail to the Oak Ridge Boys!!!🎉

[@bigbossman7991]

Richard will go down in history as being in my top 10 Bass Singers in Music History. 🤍

[@DavidLeeRothsAlterEgo]

They sound way better than they did in the 80's and they were incredible then . 40 years of rehearsal and live shows have honed their singing skills. Way to go boys, you're still a class act.

[@savannalynn1731]

Was my favorite song ever when I was a kid!

[@radujokiy9424]

[@chrisfree9985]

I will always love this group!! Sounds good!!! 40 years later!!

[@joes0406]

In these current crazy times, it's good to hear a wayback one like this.

[@bobbillings]

The boys just announced a couple weeks ago they are going to finally retire and are going to play the rest of their shows in 2023 and into 2024 as their farewell tour. I'm sad as so many things changed and went away in my life but they have always seemed to have been there and been the one constant thing that hasn't changed since my childhood when my Mother, god rest her soul, got me hooked on them with her love for them and taking me to their yearly concerts in our hometown. As I am now middle aged, I also can appreciate them for being around for so many decades that they deserve more than anyone to enjoy life with the time they have left without the touring. They will be greatly missed, especially their Christmas shows.

[@AmandaHW1984]

Joe retired mid-concert this past weekend.

[@bobbillings]

@@AmandaHW1984 I am not surprised. I went and got tickets for me and the wife and saw them in Anderson Indiana at the beautiful Paramount theater on Nov 25, 2023 as a last hurrah becuase we wanted to see the Christmas show one last time. I booked our hotel at the best western in Anderson also. Lo and behold when we checked into the hotel, the boys were staying there too and had the buses parked by our car at the best western. Got pictures of them going to the buses and back . They had several rooms right below us. When they brought Joe out the hotel room, they had him in a wheel chair being pushed by a roadie. During the concert, he sat the whole time plus he lost a lot of weight so we knew something was going on healthwise with him. Saw them so many years and decades growing up, I hope they live long and healthy as possible to enjoy retirement as they more than deserve it.

[@dawnlake5850]

I just wanted to wish you william lee golden a happy 85th birthday to you ❤ 💙 ♥ 😊 💛 💖 ❤ 💙 ♥ 😊 💛. You are one of my favorite singers for the oak ridge boys.

[@keaganburk5813]

Still sound good. I would always get my brother’s records out and play Elvira and Dream on. And still enjoy hearing them sing. Now my 2 and 6 year old have to hear Elvira several times a day; they especially liked the collaboration of Home Free and Oak Ridge Boys singing Elvira. Just brings a smile to my face to hear it and see my kids enjoy as well. Thank you so much for all the good memories and joy Oak Ridge Boys; God Bless and keep you all safe.
