The roots of the Oak Ridge Boys go back to the early 1940s. They
actually began life as a gospel group before moving into the
country-pop realm. They're still active and will go on tour in the
U.S., beginning November 27th, playing a handful of dates to close out
2005. They are also booked for a gig in February, 2006.
