In Their Words: “The first time I heard ‘Smilin’,’ I knew I wanted to record it. In fact, I thought it needed to be recorded because the message needed to be heard. Songs, especially in the bluegrass genre, quite often carry life lessons and or meaningful messages. Often a simple sincere gesture can be more effective than many words to change a person’s outlook or perspective. I can think of no better time to put the message this song delivers into practice. There are many times when a sincere smile is just what the doctor ordered. Or as the song says, just what the ‘Preacher’ ordered.” — Frank Ray, Cedar Hill
