*Another Thrift Store favorite. This one definitely came from a store called Gift & Thrift when it was still in downtown Harrisonburg, VA.From Lari Goss:
Barbara and Judy Slye, are a singing legend duo from Virginia. Hailing from the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, the Blind Slye twins moved often, also living in Riverdale, Maryland, and Purcellville Virginia. Their father, a minister, had his church in Purcellville. They often toured on the road , singing at churches, camp meetings, and other social events where their father preached. They recorded a few LPs in the 1960s and 1970s,- often accompanied by the Goss Brothers, including "Its Me Again Lord" and "No One Ever Cared For Me Like Jesus". They have been blind since birth and our lovingly referred to as "Beep and Bop". They currently reside not far from Harrisonburg, VA and continue to perform at family affairs. Their nephew, Billy Brett*, plays in the popular Harrisonburg duo, "Buck Gooter".
"For several years, my brothers and I furnished background music and vocals for quite a number of groups. It 's hard to remember everyone, but one group I will never forget is the Sly Sisters. Their harmonies were incredible and their personalities were of such that you felt as if you had known them all your life. My brothers and all agreed that they were one of those groups you will never forget. I was thrilled to hear, after all these years that they are still singing. I wish them the best and may God continue to bless them with more beautiful harmonies."
