"Jesus On The Mainline" Glory Train album
I was listening to "Glory Train" album, and I really like the song "Jesus On The Mainline" along with the entire album. In the song, there are 3 female vocals who sing along as well. Does anyone know who they are?? I tried searching online but I didn't find anything, just links for me to download the song. I really do appreciate y'all. Thank you.
Take care

Don't really know Jasmin. If you look at the liner notes contained in the jackets (album covers) it usually tells you who did vocals on each song.
Who the musicians were etc .
Most of Randys back ground vocals on Randys albums have been by the Cherry sisters.. So my guess is that is who you are hearing. But don't hold me to it.

According to a couple of news sources out of Tulsa, the RT Concert of tonight is canceled as far as Randy being there.
They say the band made it to town so will play as well as the opening act but the weather has not allowed randy to make it into the area.
No information is avaqilable as to when or whether the show will be rescheduled.
I almost considered going to this one but circumstances did not permit it. I almost wish i was there just to hear the band but of course Randy would be dearly missed.

This scares me. Wonder what kind of bad weather they are having?
Betty, Oklahoma had blizzard conditions this weekend. Lots of snow and high winds.i would think Randy just couldn't get there. I live in the Dallas area we are covered in snow and very cold. Not common for this time of year in Texas but it happens.
Thanks for telling me about the weather around there. Right now in
southern Indiana it is pretty nice, just wore a light jacket to church. I wonder if Randy got there for tonight's concert??
The concert has been postponed tonight in Concho, although the weather has improved dramatically today and most of the ice/snow is gone. I'm assuming it was travel related.
I bet that is really discouraging to all concerned when this happens.
For the performers and the arenas and also financially. Someone told me they have insurance to cover these things financially but I do not quite undestand all of that.
There is such a tremendous amount of business things we never even think of. 'We just enjoy when we can. Betty
We traveled from Tulsa to Concho today. There was no announcement that the show had been cancelled until 2 hrs before the doors opened. We took pics out by his semi trailer, but that's as close as we got. I wish I had known that the show here in Tulsa was cancelled last night. (We got better tickets to the Concho show but had to drive for 2 1/2 hrs to get there. There were people there that drove for 6 hrs to see the show. The casino dropped the ball on that one. They should have posted it sooner. I called before we left here and they said the show was still on.
Does anyone know whether the meet & greet will still be valid on the new show date?
Did you go to the opening act or the band's performance???
That is so bad for you after traveling that far.
I'm so sorry to hear that the concert was cancelled. I heard there was a lot of snow in ice in Tulsa. We had tremendous winds here in central Texas and cold temperatures but no snow or ice. Last year a concert was cancelled right before it was going to start because of lightening. I hope everyone gets to see Randy again soon. cowwoman60 Denise
It's still March Betty, anything is still possible. March is so unpredictable.
My girlfriend , always called March, "Mother Natures' Step child" , never knowing how they are going to respond to you. :) I always thought that described March so perfectly. Have already heard tarnados being mentioned in the weather. So its hard to tell just what kind of weather they may be having wherever he is. I pray for his and Libs saftey wherever they are.

Randy Travis: a little less randy
Sunday News
Mar 21, 2010 00:06 EST
By MICHAEL C. UPTON, Correspondent
When Randy Travis tried to cross into Canada last year, authorities detained him
for questioning and almost denied him entry over an arrest record that included felonies
for breaking and entering and vehicle theft.
Randy Travis, the multiplatinum country crooner who won three Grammy awards and whose
No. 1 hits include titles such as "Forever and Ever, Amen," "He Walked on Water"
and "Three Wooden Crosses" — that Randy Travis, mistaken for a criminal?
It was no mistake. Travis' past had haunted him while traveling earlier in his career,
but it was something he thought he had corrected.
"I finally had to go ahead and get a pardon from the governor because I had many
things against me that would show up as we traveled," Travis said.
He doesn't anticipate the same scrutiny he encountered in Canada when he travels
to Pennsylvania to perform Thursday, March 25, at American Music Theatre. The venue
is a far cry from the American Legions and fire halls Travis started out in.
As a teenager, he and brother Ricky would play illegally in seedy bars. Between the
ages of 10 and 20, Travis lived a life of excess, without peace or fear, and was
a witness to everyday violence.
"You know, my childhood was interesting," Travis recalled recently in a telephone
interview while traveling from Dallas to his home in Santa Fe, N.M. "I went through
all those drug and alcohol years of being arrested, and then in my early 20s, I went
to bed one night — and I was probably high when I did this — but I just began reading
the Bible."
That night changed his life.
"I was just amazed at the peace of mind I felt the next day," Travis said. "It just
hit me, and I thought, 'You know, the only thing I am afraid of at this point would
be that if I died, I'd be going straight to hell.' I guess that's putting it bluntly.
It's just the truth of the matter."
Travis' Christian faith led him to produce a gospel album, "Inspirational Journey,"
in 2000. The effort featured collaborations with notable country artists Kenny Chesney
and Waylon Jennings. Travis continues to produce both gospel and country albums and
tours simultaneously for each genre.
"I consider myself to be both a gospel artist and a country artist. Then again, if
you listen to me, if you listen to the gospel albums … they're country records,"
Travis said. "Listen to me speak! What else would I do? No matter what I do, it's
going to sound like a country record. Well, I'd sound like an idiot doing anything
else."
That's not quite true. Travis has quietly enjoyed a successful foray into the world
of acting. He shrugs off any connection to the word actor. Being on the screen is
just another thing that Travis has done in his life.
"If you would have asked me 30 years ago if I wanted to act I'd say, 'Are you crazy?'!\p"
Travis said laughing. "I don't keep up with this stuff."
The literal draw to the screen was Travis' fascination and appreciation for westerns
and the quick draw of the pistol, which he calls his odd hobby.
"I grew up watching the old spaghetti westerns: Roy Rogers, Gene Autry and John Wayne,"
Travis said.
Travis is as country as they come. The hard life, the twang in his voice, his love
of old westerns all fit the bill. As does his subtle, wry, good-natured sense of
humor.
Here he describes his intentions for the Lancaster show: "Well, I'm a big dancer,
you know, and I figure some break dancing, and then I think I might set a banjo on
fire or something," Travis said. "Oh heck, my wife gets irritated with me when I
do stuff like that."
Randy Travis will take the stage at 8 p.m. Thursday, March 25, at American Music Theatre,
2425 Lincoln Highway East. For ticket information, call 397-7700
