Thanks, Mr. Hargraves. Great to hear Miss Barbara continues to work. One of my all-time favorite singers.

I always loved her voice! Saw her and (then husband) Randy Reinhard perform at the convention in St. Louis back in the '70s, and their performances were mesmerizing. Randy was a phenomenal player, and he and Barbara did a fabulously segued medley of songs (Somewhere Over The Rainbow, Have You Ever Been Mellow, I Won't Last A Day without You) that I was fortunate enough to get on tape.

Those were the days. :\

Does Barbara still sing country or is it all gospel?
