MAILBAG:
Just thought I would let you know that I found this site by typing in my Dad’s name, Roger Bankson, and found his first album ever recorded on your website. Yes, my father is still performing at age 63. And he still sings as high as ever. (Note-wise, that is). He as recorded over 25 albums and is getting ready to put out his newest CD this next year.

Tioga, LA
From the Back Cover:
“God has really blessed us and bridged the so called ‘generation gap’ in our family and singing ministry. We feel there is a song or two on this album for everyone.”

Ludwig Sound #313
Spring, TX
From the Back Cover:
“It is with pleasure that I find myself writing this short note and recalling the last twenty or more years that I have had the privilege of knowing the Smylies. In those days together, we sang and ministered to the people in street services at the courthouse square, in the jails, and in the various churches in and around Houston and in the Sunday night radio broadcast of the Sky Pilot. And now we have done it again by recording this album which combines a little nostalgia and something new. Sammy & June’s youngest son, Johnny, now a young man, adds a touch of young new sounds which blend so well with the traditional.”
