Major Hit-Maker for Ohio Players Band Brings It All Home on Valley Gold ShowYoungstown, OH - Mahoning Valley’s TV Talk-Show fans would agree, the most remarkable and heart-felt story to date for audiences of The Valley Gold Show with Debor’ah Benton took place Thurs. Feb. 23, 2006. The three- Platinum and six-Gold Album, three-Gold ‘45’ recording artist and two-time Grammy award-winning, Ohio Players’ major hit producer, Youngstown’s own, Billy Beck stars on Valley Gold Show before a live audience and brings everything home. During the interview segments of the show, Billy Beck shares the ultimate highs and the deepest lows of his widely celebrated music career. Host, Debor’ah Benton, and her studio audience of approximately one hundred, witnessed a historical hour when famed musician yielded to hosts questions on everything from ‘who he was before joining the Ohio Players, to his writing genius, substance abuse, and his return to his roots.’ The music segment of the show included a stellar performance of one of Beck’s [and the Ohio Players] Platinum hits that had never actually been performed in front of a live audience – that is until that magical moment on The Valley Gold Show. “The newly established “Billy Beck and the Valley Gold Band” (Jeff Green, Sax & Vocals; Fred Irvin, Bass; StingRay Brooks, Lead Guitar, Talk Box, & Vocals, David “Wee Wee” Paige, Drums & Vocals, and Kim Hines, Percussion) launched this hometown talk show into a new orbit as the musicians rocked the mic’s before an audience of electrified fans who couldn’t manage to keep their seats. After the show, fans and musical guests were welcomed into a warm reception (courtesy of Skrumptous Beaulah Land Catering Co.) at which time, studio audience members took photographs and Beck signed autographs for, what seemed to be, an endless stream of fans.
