I heard a song last night called either "Love" or "Circle of Love. Naturally the DJ never told who it was but I swear I can hear touches of Conways voice thru the song. Does anyone know who does this song?
Maybe his son?

I don't know about the song you asked about but Conway's son does sound a lot like him.

I'm working with a couple of guys that played the road with Jeff a few years ago before he got his record deal. At that time Joe Don Rooney from Rascal Flatts was playing guitar with them some also. They say Jeff really sounds like Conway on Conway songs. |

Guys, thanks for the responses and to who the singer is. I'm sure going to go hear him if he's ever in my neck of the woods. Eddie, Joe Don Rooney is from Picher, Ok. Thats only about 5 miles from where I live. Its an old mining town and they are sure proud of him. Also, planning on coming down to see you one of these days. Norma Jean has been telling me what a good show you guys have.

Jimmy, Jeff Bates is from Mississippi. Gene is right about Conway Twitty a.k.a. Harold Jenkins who was from Arkansas. Gene is the Man who ought to know. Just go to his website and he'll tell you all about it. One of the best websites on the Forum!
