Remembering Joe Bonsall from The Oak Ridge Boys

Published 2024-07-09
We are saddened to hear of the passing of country music legend Joe Bonsall. He was a member of The Oak Ridge Boys for more than 50 years and was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Gospel Music Hall of Fame with the group. We were honored to have him stop by Larry's Country Diner with The Oak Ridge Boys over the years and are honored to share this collection of great songs to remember him.

    A quartet that could sing almost anything and make it sound great! And Joe Bonsall was a huge part of it! RIP Joe!
  • I met him in person and Las Vegas backstage. My husband’s daughter was married to Dewey Deaux who played saxophone in the band. All of them were very nice. Joe brought so much happiness to so many people it will be forever remembered.

    The Oaks and The Statler Brothers....my 2 favorite country quartets growing up in the 1970's. Thanks Joe for your hard work and dedication to country and gospel music.
