Daniel
Britt and Mark Fuller called Bill Gaither at home on a Monday
evening in the fall of 2003 to talk music, people, life and
even radio! The audio clips below are portions of the unedited
phone conversation. They are broken up into segments that
are more manageable, since the entire interview lasted over
90 minutes! This is the first batch...watch for more additions
coming soon!
