Gatlin ‘polished’
despite problems
by Patrice Koranek
Battalion Staff
Despite recurring problems
with the sound system, Larry
Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers
Band showed Thursday night’s
audience in G. Rollie White Col
iseum that little problems can’t
stop a veteran act.
Playing to a house that was
about two-thirds full, the Gatlin
brothers showed that they had a
polished act. Throughout the
performance, Larry, the leader
of the group, interjected com
ments about the whooping and
hissing of the Aggie crowd. Sev
eral times during the evening he
stepped back and clowned with
the audience, giving the crowd a
feeling for the people behind
the music.
The group started the even
ing on a mellow note with “She
Used to Sing on Sunday,” and
worked their way into fast-paced
hits like “Nighttime Magic” and
“All the Gold in California.”
But no matter what kind of
song the group was.doing, the
harmony and balance between
the brothers’ voices were great.
In slow, haunting melodies like
“I’ve Done Enough Dying To
day” and “Midnight Choir,”
Larry’s voice seemed to make
the crowd sit up and listen to the
poignant words. And in the fas
ter songs, the backup from the
band and harmony from his
brothers kept the songs moving.
About midway through the
performance, the band and
brothers Steve and Rudy left the
stage. Larry pulled up a stool
and after bantering w ith the au
dience and telling Aggie jokes,
he did a solo — a nonsense song
called “I’m Just a Mannequin.”
Trying to end the perform
ance with “All the Gold in Cali
fornia,” the band left die crowd
excited instead of ready to leave.
Realizing the audience’s mood,
the group came back and sang
N. ’ U A - /"k >» 1 .L ...
‘We’re Number One” and then
left the audience in silence as
they sang the gospel song “Alle
luia.”
The Gatlin Brothers’ stage
was simple compared to that of
the opening act, the Bellamy
Brothers, who also were enter
taining. Hits like “You Ain’t Just
Whistlin’ Dixie,” “Sugar Dad
dy,” “Let Your Love Flow” and
“Reggae Cowboy,” set the mood
for the rest of the evening.
