From the Vault: The Booth Brothers, "Home Where I Belong"

From the Vault: The Booth Brothers, "Home Where I Belong" June 12, 2015

It gives me great pleasure to brighten Youtube with the (in my opinion) definitive cover of this B. J. Thomas classic. The Brothers don’t seem to have a studio recording of it, which is interesting since they obviously cut a studio track for themselves to use on this performance.

This arrangement hews fairly closely to the Gaither Vocal Band’s interpretation, but the Booths’ harmonies are just unbeatable on this. I would also rate it as one of Ronnie Booth’s best lead vocals. I’ve often thought that in a different era, Ronnie could have had a great solo career in country music. Truly one of the most naturally gifted vocalists I’ve ever heard.
I’m not sure who the gentleman in freeze frame is at around 2:43 (presumably an acquaintance of the group who had passed).
If you’ve enjoyed this, keep coming back for more gems from the vault!
