Dear Friends,
Everyone our age has been exposed to old time gospel music during their lifetime. From Rock of Ages, Amazing Grace, The Old Rugged Cross, to How Great Thou Art, Old Friends, When We Ring Those Golden Bells, I'd Rather Have Jesus, Than Silver or Gold, etc. I have been blessed with the opportunity to help promote the gospel thru country music by way of the Internet (www.kbec.com) or in the southern part of Dallas, Ellis, Navarro, Johnson and Hill counties thru KBEC 1390 am. My show is produced and broadcast on Sunday nights from 6:00 - 10:00 pm (CST) from Waxahachie, Texas. The format brings together three distinct, yet similar types of country gospel music. In the first hour I try to highlight country gospel music from around the USA., with stars like Porter Waggoner, Dolly Parton, Elvis Presley, Randy Travis, and the Statler Brothers, just to name a few. In the second and third hour, I play two solid hours of just Gaither music with Bill, Gloria, and all their homecoming friends. In the last hour of my show, I highlight local artist from Texas, like Fletcher Jowers, Willie Nelson, Lee Ann Rimes, and His Harmony. Not having any training in radio, KBEC and I have combined to put forth a worthwhile show and garner a vast listening audience. Never in all my wildest dreams in high school, did I ever see myself as a radio personality, producing a radio show that goes out to the public. I couldn’t even carry a tune in a bucket and now I put tunes together for broadcast. To sum it all up, get your dose of good old country gospel music, every Sunday evening, for this is "just what the doctor ordered". Ol' Doc (Phil Veltman) |
