Go Rest High on the Mountain – Vince Gill
Well I haven’t seen anything official, but it would only seem natural that superstar Vince Gill will soon make his debut appearance at the Diner. I know Vince is really active in the Country’s Family Reunions and he seems to cross paths with many of the stars and legends that appear on that CD collection. In a recent episode of Larry’s Country Diner; while paying tribute to one of the legends that is no longer with us, you got to see Vince Gill and it looked like he had the best seat in the house. The person working the camera also made the extra effort to get as many shots of Mr. Gill as possible. In a room that was filled with stars, this tribute video that was shown on Larry’s Country Kitchen, seem to show Vince Gill as the biggest star in the room. I know a lot wouldn’t agree with that and even Vince his self would tell you that he’s a couple of rungs down from some of the big names that were present that day.
Why is Vince Gill wanted or needed for a guest appearance on Larry’s Country Diner? It’s because I have an invite from Renae the Waitress and I would like to save it for a very special edition of Larry’s Country Diner. I will just have to see if there is anyway I can find out the details and book my spot in the audience, for the day that Vince Gill walks into the diner and sings his signature song. Vince Gill was asked if there was any one song that described him or what song would he most want to be remembered by or associated with years from now. It didn’t take him long to reply and he did pick the song, Go Rest High on the Mountain. This is a beautiful song and probably one of the most requested funeral songs for a non-religious song. Vince isn’t the only one who has recorded or sung this song, but he certainly puts a smooth edge on it, like no one else can or hasn’t yet.
So it’s very important for me to find out when this modern day legend of country music steps foot into Larry’s Place. I would certainly do everything in my power, to make Blogger Chris’ debut the same one as Mr. Gill. Larry’s Country Diner is a one-hour program that comes on RFD-TV or the Rural TV channel. If Vince Gill shows up, they might extend the show and add an extra 30 minutes to 1 hour. It would probably be hard to pick which song Vince would sing second at the Diner, but it would be hard to overlook his first big hit When I Call Your Name. He is a member of a very exclusive club that is better known as the Country Music Hall of Fame. Vince Gill was welcomed into their very proud circle back in 2007, so with that status being on his resume, he can pretty much sing whatever he wants.
Hopefully for my sake, Larry and the Gang can get Vince to come in one day and tape a special edition of Larry’s Country Diner. If it was up to my mama, she would just assume to have the Coal Miner’s Daughter walk-in. She is a big fan of Loretta Lynn and it would be a big treat for her to see Loretta sing in person. If you knew of a certain time and date that you would be walking into Larry’s Country Diner; which performer would you most like to see performing? You can pick any performer that is still living and able to perform; who would you select?
