Step Back in Time and Watch The Powerhouse Group of Singers Perform Together at the CMA Awards
Over 30 years ago, Randy Travis, co-host of the show, reunited Tammy Wynette and George Jones, along with cowboy legend Roy Rogers and Vern Gosdin to perform selections from his new album “Heroes and Friends.” You can hear the audience cheer as each musical guest joins Travis on stage, with particular excitement for George Jones, who was a surprise guest that evening.
The song “Heroes & Friends” was co-written by Randy Travis and Don Schlitz and released as the second and final single from Travis’ album of duets, Heroes & Friends – interestingly, it was his only song on the album that was not a duet.
