  • GOLD CITY -& TRAINS


    ANOTHER SHOT AT GOLD CITY REUNION;;;;;))

        I  

    IVAN PARKER AND SON JOSH----i think
    I'VE HEARD IVAN MANY TIMES--FIRST TIME HEARING HIS SON. HE IS VERY GOOD ON THE GUITAR!!!!

    BRIAN FREE----IVAN PARKER--MIKE LEFEVRE---TIM RILEY.
    NOT QUITE THE ORIGINAL--GOLD CITY GOES WAY BACK--THIS PARTICULAR GROUP WOULD
     HAVE BEEN IN THE 80'S

    TIM RILEY
    BASS SINGER I THINK HE WAS THE GENT THAT STARTED THE GROUP--ONE OF MY FAVORITE BASS SINGERS.  BACK IN 2004 I TOOK THE COMPLETE FAMILY ON A CHRISTIAN CRUISE AND GOLD CITY WAS ONE OF THE GROUPS THAT SANG--MR RILEY HAD SOME PROBLEM WITH HIS HEART AND COULD NOT SING -- SO THEY SANG AS A TRIO.

    I WENT UP FRONT TO GET A CLOSE-UP OF THE PARKER'S AND ON THE WAY BACK I TOOK THIS ONE--- LADY IN YELLOW IS FROM DELAWARE.  LOIS IS HER NAME.

    SITTING IN FRONT OF US --HOW ABOUT THOSE EYES AND CUTE FACE!!!!!

    MR RILEY AND HIS SON DOUG

    ==============================================
    ====================================

    ON THE WAY BACK WE VISITED LOIS'S SISTER --SHIRLEY AND HUSBAND WALTER
    WALTER HAS A THING ABOUT TRAINS AND HAS OVERTAKEN THE BASEMENT.

     

    WALTER MADE MOST OF THE  SCENERY AND BUILDINGS.

    WALTER WAS WORKING SO SHIRLEY DID HER BEST TO GET ALL 4 OF THE TRAINS RUNNING AT THE SAME TIME.-- YOU CAN SEE SHIRLEY AND HER SISTER LOIS.

    IF YOU KNOW WHERE TO LOOK YOU CAN SEE ALL 4 TRAINS.

    IF I WERE TO GUESS I WOULD SAY THE CAR IS A CHRYSLER??

    LOOKS LIKE A SUPPLY STATION??

    I WAS RIGHT IMPRESSED WITH WALTER'S LAY-OUT -SHIRLEY'S ABILITY TO RUN THE CONTROL PANEL --ALL THE BUILDINGS --VEHICLES & TOWERS.

  • GOSPEL CONCERT


    LAST FRIDAY NIGHT MAY 3RD LOIS AND I WENT UP TO CALVARY CHURCH IN LANCASTER PA TO SEE THE GOLD CITY QUARTET REUNION.

    MIKE LEFEVRE QUARTET WAS ONE OF THE GROUPS THAT ALSO PERFORMED.
    I REMEMBER BACK IN THE LATE 60'S  EARLY 70'S I HAD A BIG DUMP-TRUCK WITH SPEAKERS IN DOOR PANELS AND IN THE CORNERS NEXT TO MY EARS AND THE LEFEVRE'S WERE ONE OF THE MANY GROUPS I WOULD PLAY OVER AN OVER--COURSE I THINK MIKE WOULD BE THE NEPHEW OF ALPHUS & EVA MAE.

     

    BRIAN FREE & ASSURANCE.
    OH MY--I COULD HAVE BEEN DEAF AND HEARD IT.-- WE WERE SITTING ON THE 4TH ROW WHEN THEY STARTED AFTER THE THIRD SONG WE WERE ON THE EIGHTH ROW AND WE HADN'T EVEN STOOD UP.  ;;).""
