Well, we listen to that old-time music.
It's nothing new to me.
I mean, that's what we grew up listening to.
Winging my way back home.
And I know that we share that in that your daddy, we got a little connection,
your daddy is a big-time Bluegrass fan, right?
I mean, he loves it.
Yeah, you know my dad.
I sat with him one night at an awards show, and we had a banquet where there was food to eat there.
We were eating, and there was singing taking place on the stage.
Mr.
Wolf's back was to the stage, and so he doesn't really care for this progressive new type of gospel music that was going on.
And so he sat there and ate his food and had his back to the stage.
Every time a Bluegrass artist came on, buddy, he turned around, put his pie down, and he watched.
He did.
He loves it.
I wish I could say he watched y'all sing, but he did not.
No, he didn't.
He only likes one thing we do.
What is that?
Well, you know, I've told you many, many times about my dad's favorite TV show was the Andy Griffith Show when I was a kid.
A lot of folks like Andy Griffith Show.
And my dad's favorite singing group used to make special appearances on there, the Darlings.
Remember them?
Oh, yeah.
Their real name was the Dillards, but that was my dad's.
It was a real group.
It wasn't a bunch of actors.
Oh, they just retired last year.
One of the brothers passed away, and they retired.
But they were a real group.
My daddy had all their eight tracks.
We might have to explain what that is to some of these folks.
I have to explain albums.
I pulled out an old album the other day from my 10-year-old boy I was going to listen to.
I bought me a new record player, you know, and I pulled out an old Christmas album I was going to listen to.
I said, Ben, do you know what this is?
And my boy said, Daddy, that's the biggest CD I've ever seen.
Anyway, my dad had all these eight tracks, and it was so important to him, you know, that music.
He saved up and ordered from the J.C. Penney Catalog one of these great big console stereo cabinet deals.
It looked like a casket.
Remember those?
Yeah, I've seen them.
And he put that thing right in the middle of the living room up against the wall where the window air conditioner was
so it would blow the music all through the house, you know.
That was 1960s intercoms.
But anyway, we used to go to these big outdoor bluegrass festivals, you know, out in a field.
And you'd sit in your lawn chair all day and listen to about 30 groups, and every one of them about the same, you know, all these banjos.
And let me just say, if you have never gone to one of those outdoor, and I know they have them in Ohio.
If you've never gone to one of those big, you know, bluegrass outdoor in the field summertime, no shade, singing,
God has been good to you.
About seven years ago, we called some guys that we know that play bluegrass, you know, and we got them to come in.
And we recorded the Darling's arrangement of one of my dad's favorite songs.
And if you remember them, you know, they were very serious.
Oh, yeah, they didn't crack a smile.
They didn't smile.
They didn't tap their feet.
They just sang.
And so we duplicated that and put it on a CD for dad, and that's what he did.
And he loves it.
Oh, yeah.
So when you sing it, do you not smile, and do you do it like they did it?
I mean, just
No, you've got to do it and not smile.
I mean, you've got to do it like it's supposed to be done, like they used to do it, or it's not good, you see.
Y'all want to see that?
I'd like to see that.
You don't do it every night, but maybe, you know, is it in that book?
Yeah, it's in this 401 in here.
And so, now this is the original Dillard's or Darling's arrangement of my dad's favorite gospel song.
It's called The Unclouded Day.

Oh, [E] they tell me of a home where no storm cloud dries.
Oh, they tell me of an [B] [E] unclouded day.
[F#] Oh, [E] they tell me of a home where my friends have gone.
Oh, they tell me of that land [B] far away where [E] the tree of life [E] in eternal bloom
sheds its fragrance through the unclouded day.
Oh, they tell me of the king in his beauty there.
And they tell me that mine eyes [B] shall behold.
Get away from me.
[E] Where he sits on the throne that is whiter than snow.
Leave me alone.
In the city that is [B] made of [E]
gold.
[B] Unclouded sky.
[E] Oh, they tell me of a home where no storm cloud dries.
Y'all sing that chorus with us.
Oh, the last day.
Can't hear ya.
Oh, the land.
[B]
Clouded sky.
Oh, they tell me of a home where [E] no storm cloud dries.
Sing louder.
