Many, many years ago, my Sister knew one of his backup singers. I went to the concert at Blossom Music Center, and met his daughter. Fell instantly in love!

Well of course it’s Arthur Godfrey, but I had forgotten their working together.

Arthur Godfrey

My favorite Boone song is "Friendly Persuasion" which is also a terrific movie starring Gary Cooper.

Pat Boone has always been a gift to this country. I would love to see President Trump invite him to the White House as a guest entertainer or just a guest to enjoy the experience.

Pat Boone is part of the recipe of that Great America that Donald Trump has been talking about.

We went to one of his concerts last year in TN, and met him. Even at his age he put on a great show which actually was more narrative than singing.

I was surprised when he said he’d written the lyrics for the theme of “Exodus” — “This Land Is Mine”.

His Christian testimony is strong, and the life/love story with his wife is very sweet.

Godfrey - I can still hear his voice - that one was tucked waay back in the grey matter -

Never much cared for Boone, thought his schtick was opportunistic upon basic rock and roll....in the same vein what velveeta is to cheddar cheese

Streep has played a few folks who are way above her station - she forgets she is the paste that masquerades as the real gems....

My favorite is “April Love.” Every time Imhear it, I’m transported back in time to the 1950s.
