Movie Reviews of Bill & Gloria Gaither and Their Homecoming Friends: Journey to the Sky
Movie Review: A huge gathering of the old and the new
Summary: 5 Stars
Journey to the Sky 2000 was filmed in Indiana. It is a wonderful and large Homecoming gathering. So many are here, the young newcomers and the older gospel veterans, such as The Happy Goodmans "Clouds"; Jake Hess "He Knows Just What I Need". Hovie Lister at the piano with a beautiful song, "Lord I'm Coming Home Home" and ironically it was his last performance before he died in 2001. Eva Mae Lefevre "Wait Til You See Me In My New Home" (Eva Mae died in 2009). Regular Ivan Parker sings "My Journey to the Sky". Anthony Burger The Best of Anthony Burger is at the piano, and sadly, Burger died in Feb. 2006 of a heart attack while playing during a concert. Dotty Rambo is also present; she died in a bus crash in 2008.
Special guests include a Boots Randolph medly of the classic gospel songs, and a reading/testimonial by Stephen Hicks who also died of lymphoma shortly after. Country singers Randy Travis Worship & Faith "Feet on the Rock" and Larry Gatlin "Lay Them Down" have been frequent guests of the Gaither Homecoming Series. Try this one: The Gatlin Brothers Come Home Gaither Gospel Series.
As usual, one of my favorites, Russ Taff The Best of Russ Taff sings "Trumpet of Jesus".; Gaither Vocal Band does "The Love of God"; David Phelps "O Love That Will Not Let Me Go" and someone I see in the later years, Alicia Williamson "Come and Go With Me/What A Time". The Homecoming Group sings "Joshua Led God's Children, and "Paradise Island".
Someone newcomers to me, The Old Friends Quartet does "Glory, Glory, Clear the Road, and Buddy Mullins "Hope, Joy and Love"; A man known to Bill Gaither, Don Francisco sings a storytelling song,"He's Alive". A beautiful Dottie Rambo song, "Come Spring" is sung by Jessica King, Sheri Easter, and Charlotte Ritchie. Comedy is by Jeff Allen. And the bonus footage is The Facts of Life TV star Lisa Welchel shares a story.
This DVD is a fun large gathering of music with journey as the theme....Rizzo
Summary of Bill & Gloria Gaither and Their Homecoming Friends: Journey to the Sky
Heaven is on the minds of Bill and Gloria Gaither and their Homecoming Friends as they sing and speculate about a life beyond the sky. Boots Randolph, one of the greatest saxophone players of the 20th century, offers an exciting medley of heaven-themed songs, and a rare appearance by Don Francisco, performing his much-awarded "He?s Alive," is met with a standing ovation. Country legends Randy Travis and Larry Gatlin perform, as do the Goodmans, Russ Taff, the late Jake Hess, and the Old Friends Quartet.Similar DVD Movies
