From the broadcast the weekend of July 3rd & 4th, 2010: This was an unusual program in that each of the hours was, in effect, a full-hour special feature. Throughout the first hour, our Featured Artist was singer/songwriter Sandy Knight. Sandy has been a very well-known songwriter in Southern Gospel music since the early 1980s. Many of her earliest hits were sung by Gold City, such as "I Think I'll Read It Again," "John Saw," "How Deep Is The Water" and "Shouting Ground." She had "Song of the Year" in 1991 with "Somebody Touched the Lord" (sung by Perfect Heart) and "Song of the Year" in 2002 with "I'll Not Turn My Back On Him Now" (sung by the Inspirations). As you heard on this program, Sandy's songs are still very much in-demand by today's groups. Ivan Parker, who worked closely with her as a songwriter back in his Gold City days, still calls on Sandy for new songs, such as his recent radio hit, "Hit The Ground Running." More info about Sandy and her family group, the Roy Knight Singers, can be found at www.royknightsingers.org. For the second hour of this broadcast we pulled together eleven of the "Yesterday's Voices" short-form features we've aired the past few years as a summertime feature, making a full hour of memories of some of the best-known and most-loved Southern Gospel artists of the past. In each case you heard interviews with them, pulled from our extensive interview archives created over the past thirty years. Artists featured on this program were Rusty Goodman, Howard Goodman, George Younce, Hovie Lister, Jake Hess, James Blackwood, Rex Nelon, Kenny Hinson, Eldridge Fox, Wendy Bagwell and J. D. Sumner. There were many others we could have included, of course, but these certainly were among the "cream of the crop." In effect, this hour was by-request, because when we aired the short features the past few summers, listeners always wrote in requesting more.
