Music of the Pentecostal Churches
This is from Jan's private collection. We had to use
white gloves just to get it out for the camera.
Is this the album that Dino sings on?
Can you fill us in with the names of the choir
members? I asked Brother Mac why Dino didn't
play the piano for the choir. He paused and then
answered, "He couldn't read music."
Who knew?

Time to Praise

features our friend Dennis Smith! Who else is
on this album? Let us know ....please!

Go Choir Album #2
For Kaye - This is the Go Choir album cover that
she was laughing about. In defense of the artist,
the album was supposed to have silver - mirror
like squares where the yellow squares are. And
it was all drawn by hand in the 60's.
Check it out: Lookin, Lovin and Livin all designed
to give it the "Laugh In - groovie" look.
Cost $00.00 Sometimes you get what you pay for!

Kaye (Conklin) Bates Checks In
Hi, Tom!
I ran into your blog when a friend told me to go look at "this thing about Revivaltime alumni". So I did. It was pretty funny to me to see who had that blog. Because I remember you from when I was a kid and you sang in the Go Choir in Des Moines. You were at our house alot. I think I mainly remember you working with my dad on that record album cover, you know, the one with all the yellow and black diagonal lines (or whatever they are!) Really, I dunno how you can joke on any RT covers considering your Go Choir history. : )
But anyway, I was in Revivaltime too, from 1977 to 1979. I still stay in touch with a few friends from CBC days. I sang on the "Revive Us Again" album.
I just wanted to say hi, and let you know how much I enjoyed your site. I think it is wonderful that you all are planning a reunion. It sounds like you all enjoyed the previous ones.
Anyway, take care and God bless you.
Sincerely,
Kaye Conklin Bates
Kaye - It is great to hear from you. Where are you? And how is your family? How is your dad? FYI: For those of you who have never heard of "Go Choir" I will follow up this post with some info and a picture of the album cover Kaye is talking about.

General Council – Orlando August 2009
Plans are still underway to have a RT Reunion on the Monday night ahead of General Council. George and Cheryl Cope are working with a hotel near the convention center for the event.
Here are some of the things that yet need to be tied down:
(1) Round Trip Flights for the McLellans.
(2) Hotel/Lodging for the McLellans.
(3) The RT Reunion Hotel may require an Entry Fee per RT attendee.
(Since we don’t drink – they have to find a way to pay for their room.)
FYI: We do not plan to sell pictures or candy to raise funds,
and CBC is not budgeting for our event.
We do plan to have a way to record your stories and take pictures of all of the attendees.
If a piano is available, we may plan to do some short “Sing-Alongs” of songs we all remember.
(Look out Bill & Gloria – a new DVD is in the planning stages!)
We do want to get Brother Mac on mic and have him answer questions and tell stories.
If you have an other ideas or suggestions, now is the time to send them in.
