Florida Boys Shine at SGMA Awards
The Southern Gospel Music Association recently presented its 2002 SGMA Awards and Hall of Fame inductees in Gatlinburg, Tennessee (5/22). The Florida Boys earned Album of the Year honors for Movin' On. In existence since the 1950's, the legendary group has recorded more than 100 albums and is recognized in the Gospel Music Hall of Fame. The Isaacs received the Song of the Year nod for "Stand Still," written by Rebecca Isaacs Bowman, Sonya Isaacs Surrett and David Marshall. Other top BMI winners included Greater Vision as Artist Of The Year with Gerald Wolfe as Male Vocalist, Karen Peck Gooch as Female Vocalist, Old Time Gospel Hour Quartet as New Artist and Phil Cross as Songwriter of the Year. BMI affiliates inducted to the Hall of Fame were Jerry Goff, Buford Abner, R.W. Blackwood and Alphus LeFevre.
