“All The Gold In California” Is One Of The Gatlins’ Signature Songs

For decades, Larry Gatlin and his brothers Steve and Rudy have graced country music with their sweet harmonies. The group, called Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers, is beloved by country fans far and wide.

Even if you don’t know much about the Gatlin Brothers’ music, you’re surely familiar with their iconic hit, “All the Gold in California.” Larry wrote the track alone, and it’s now known as one of the group’s signature songs.

Released in August 1979, “All the Gold in California” was the group’s first-ever number one hit. It held on to the chart’s top spot for two weeks and spent ten weeks on the chart overall.

Years would pass before the Gatlins would score their second, and only other chart-topping hit in the U.S. That song, “Houston (Means I’m One Day Closer to You),” was released in 1983.

The song also topped the Canadian country chart, while “All the Gold in California” did not. Still, there’s no denying that its success wouldn’t have been possible without its predecessor.

After all this time, country fans still love “All the Gold in California” just as much as they did when it was released. On top of that, the Gatlin Brothers still sound just as good singing the song as they did way back in 1979.

When the sibling group appeared on the popular country music television show Larry’s Country Diner, they knew they couldn’t leave without treating everyone to a performance of their signature song.

The group’s rich vocals filled the room within seconds of kicking things off. You’ll be enchanted throughout their performance as you take in the sound of their smooth-as-honey harmonies.

If the phrase “music to your ears” could ever be applied to a performance, this would be the one. Please enjoy it in the video below.
