NQC By Internet, Friday, Hour 3

Snapshots From Friday Evening
8:02 Dean Hopper just mentioned that his mother was recognized as a Living Legend by the presenters of the Diamond Awards earlier today. He then plugs the Gaither videos and launches into the song "Jerusalem."

8:08 "Shoutin' Time"...they've worn that one out, but it goes well with "Jerusalem" musically. This should wrap up the Hoppers' set.

8:14 Kim Hopper works in a plug for the Fresno convention as she introduces Legacy Five. Roger Bennett calls Robbie Hiner to the stage, then tells some lady in the audience to meet Hiner in the lobby...strange. L5 starts with an a cappella hymn arrangement of "Praise Him, Praise Him" mixed with "I Will Sing Of My Redeemer." They sound fairly solid...Fowler bobbles a bit on the last note, but comes back with a strong swell at the end.

8:19 "When The Angels Rejoiced"...Fowler is continuing to have some vocal problems tonight. Otherwise, they're sounding great.

8:26 Glenn Dustin is featured on "Raised To Walk." L5 was as good as I'd ever heard them on Wednesday night. They're doing pretty good tonight, but not quite up to the level they were earlier in the week.

8:30 Roger Bennett sets up Scott Howard to sing a Randy Travis song called "Walk With Me." He throws in a little "Willie" at one point.

8:35 "Out Of My Darkness" is up next. When L5 performed this on Monday night, Roger joined the singers on stage and Stewart Varnado played piano. It sounds like Roger is still on the piano at the moment, though. I just heard a distinctively Bennett piano lick.

8:42 The Talley Trio comes out with "I'm Happy With You, Lord," featuring Roger Talley. On Wednesday, their set consisted mostly of praise and worship numbers. This could arguably be said to be P&W as well, but the music feels more traditional.

8:44 Next up is an a cappella version of "His Glorious Love." They're sounding fantastic.

8:48 Lauren is featured on "That Name," a cut from her latest CD.

8:52 The Talley Trio sings "The Healer" next.

8:56 "His Life For Mine" ends the Talley Trio set on a slow, but dramatic note.
