Remember when country music was great?

Does anyone else cry over this song? Other groups sing songs. The Statlers sang about our lives.

Every boy in every town in country has dreams of their very own Maple Street.

When you get old all you have left is your memories

RIP Harold Ried. Memories today of the soundtrack of my life.

I was born in 57. This song captures small town life.

Statler Brothers delivered warm hearted honest country music and they remain unmatched in quality!

I've listened to the Statler Brothers since I was born. Im now 21 and though I may physically be part of this generation, my music tastes are of a beautiful time now gone. I just listened to Maple Street Memories for the hundredth time and cried my heart out. Words can not describe my deep admiration for you boys nor explain my joy when I hear your songs. As long as I'm alive your songs will live on in my heart!

Your first love a hard thing to forget .

I saw where Harold Reid passed away yesterday after a long battle with kidney failure. That just breaks my heart :( I'm a die hard Statler Brothers fan. I started listening to them in the early 70,s when I was only 16 years old. I finally....just recently, purchased their farewell tour DVD and CD. Harold was a card! Loved his clean, comedy skits!! Fly high Harold, you will be missed by so many!!!! :(

My great grandparents lived on Maple Street in Staunton, VA when I was growing up-near where Don and Harold Reid grew up- Lord does this video ever bring back some memories- the old days were the best!!!!

R.I.P. Harold and Lew 😭💔

"...and you took my breath away". One of greatest lines ever in a song.

I grew up right there on this street. I can still smell the food cookin in the back yard on the 4th of july and getting all excited that morning and all of us running down to see the parade and hanging out in the park with the thousands of people. Sure brings back some really REALLY good times.....

There will never be another group as good as The Statlers! I was a teenager when their show was on TNN and I never missed an episode.

Don't you wonder how people that never met you can reach into your soul with their music. The gift that these men gave us will bring join for generations. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

They were the best

I loved the Statler Brothers 💕 I still listen .. real country never dies.

Reminds me of my high school sweetheart. We dated all senior year and ended up going to different colleges. We chose not to have a long distance relationship. She's married with kids now. I'm happy for her. Sometimes I think what if, but you can't change the past.

Where has time gone

Going to miss you Harold

OH, TO BE ABLE TO TURN THE CLOCK BACK!

RIP Lew and Harold

I just turned 18 and this song hits me harder, not a dry eye whenever I listen to this tearjerker. So nostalgic, just isn't like it once was.

Still listening , April 27. 2022...never gets old.

Great song, but I love to see those 50's cars that rolled the roads when I grew up. I never was able to put my Maple Street memories away!!

The harmony of these 4 are terrific

Rest In Peace Harold Reid you earned it.There are a lot of people that will miss you. Signed : T.BRENNAN

I love this son, but it breaks my heart at the same time!

I didn't live back then, but I was around in the late 60s. Sure was a simpler time.

I've listened to this song over and over and over and it still saddens me that the two of them didn't end up together. Perhaps because I let my "Maple Street Memory" get away and although I have a wonderful wife, kids and grandkids, I often think of the one I let go.

The before and after of the street alone proves the '50s at least looked better.

Brings back memories of my first love "Janice Hodge". I let her get away and it was my fault for the breakup. I still think about her almost every day even though it has been 53 years ago! Went on and married someone else, that marriage lasted only 3 years. Ohh how i wished i could go back and relive my life!

Start my day by crying my eyes out! Statlers touch that chord in my heart that nobody else can!

Oh how I miss great music. Rock and Roll died in the late 70s or early 80s and Country Music died in the 90s.

never be another group like these guys.. what talent they had. saw them live once and they put on one hell of a show... today .. there are not many performers of the caliber of these guys.. back in the day

The young lady in the prom dress is Kasey Reid, daughter of Harold (bass singer) who is in the striped white yellow and blue shirt in the video.

Beautiful almost beyond words. These are the kind of singers and songs that made country music great. Maple Street Memories is extra special. Millions of miles removed from the rubbish that passes as "country" today. This is a truly haunting song from the wonderful Statler Brothers. High Five from Ireland....!

This brings back all of the happy memories of my life in Eufaula, Alabama. I walked several miles to and from school without any worries. People knew each other and we were always safe. Anyone taking a vacation, please visit Eufaula and be sure to see the tree that owns it self and treasure the plaque that states; "Poems are made by fools like me, but only God can make a tree". I love the antebellum homes the streets where we played in the huge grass areas that divided the directions of travel. Eufaula is one of the most beautiful cities in the South. I wish I was still there and visiting my school mates.

I remember the first time I heard them on the radio. The harmony was amazing. I got to see them live in Greenville, SC. One of the best evenings of my life.

Just love so much of the time I miss

My favorite visual is the guy cutting his lawn. Like the hat. Really like the antique mower. LOVE THOSE BLACK SOCKS!

The Statler Brothers: singing of Americana, that is Either already gone? Or is fading so Rapidly? That We've Failed too Realize it?

Growing up in small town USA. Wonderful.

I can't believe I heard this song for the first time today. Pure Statler. Grrsti .

I will never get over Harold Reid's death. He was a hero! It gets me everytime I hear Don's voice break on you took my breath away!

Grew up listening to these boys singing in the living room on tv. Enjoyed the songs. I go back just thinking about those wonderful days. Good days, round family.

This is one of my favorite Statler Brothers songs and video... We went to the street where this video was made several years ago after going to their old school they bought and turned into the Statler Brothers museum .. Greatest singing group ever..

Love song for sure sent it mom 85 yrs old she loved it brought so memories for her❤

I lived on Greenville Ave. in Staunton, Virginia about 25 years ago. I would come out of The Knitting Corner see Jimmy or Harold and Don. Then on the 4th of July go to to the park for their concert. What great memories I have of those days.

I think this song touches a lot of people because they have a "Maple Street Memory" of one that got away. Someone you thought was "the one" and you would spend the rest of your life with them. But the stars did not align, nor did the fates allow. And you went your separate ways. My wife and I have been together almost twenty years, and we have a great life together. But there is someone from my early life who I occasionally think of and hope that her life has been a good one and that she is happy.

I'm not even American, but I like those old country songs

Back when music was good.

i remember those days ! back then neighbors would help each other, now all they want to do is fight with each other !

This is one of the most beautiful songs ive ever heard. Im a 23yr old brazilian dude, and to this day i thank GTA San andreas for having introduced me to this group. became one of my favorite bands ever.

The Statler's are the number one group in my opinion

I always LOVED the Statlers They were the best.

Love this song 💖. I figured they'd get together. I guess I'm a hopeless romantic

Can’t believe I’ve never heard this song, these guys are forever at the top of my list ❤️

I was born in1989 I love the old songs and old tractors and the way things used to be I always say I was born in the wrong year but sure glad I was born in the 80s

I married my Maple Street memory, it has now been fifty years for us.

What a fantastic song, brings back so many memories!!!!!

GOD bless the Statler Brothers.

Well here Iam again . Her memory woke me up ! She's gone on to Heaven . But very much still alive in my mind !

This put a lump n my throat. Those were beautiful days .. thank you Statlers for reminding us of those wonderful days ❤️❤️🙏🙏

Great song and the marvelous Statler Brothers!

None of them will be gone from my heart

Reminds me of my military days and a girl I used to skate with on Friday and Saturday night in Columbia, SC, She lived on Maple St., she went to Dreher H.S., I was stationed at Bragg but would go to Columbia on weekends, beautiful song brings back great memories, Great fan of the Statlers, greatest quartet I have ever heard.

I know I've been listening to for over 30 years

I was born long after this song I believe, now I'm seventeen years old boy that usually listen to the today's music but somehow no songs ever beat my love to country and folks song and this song is one of them who wont my heart.

this is my favorite video of all

Maple Street Memories is a song that has meaning to all of us. I think we have memories,that takes a long time to get over

What a sweet video and song! My Statlers will always be #1!

GOT TO SEE THE STATLER BROS IN CONCERT IN 1970 DURING THE JOHNNY CASH CONCERT I WENT TO INSTEAD OF MY SR PROM. I STARTED BUYING EVERY ALBUM I COULD ESPICALLY LOVE THER GHOSPL ALBUM

ffirst time i have heard this, tears in both eyes

I love The Statlers. How have I never heard this fantastic tune until today?

I’ve never heard this song! Goosebumps!!

Timeless work of art that generation after generation can apply to their lives.

I thought I had heard all their songs by now. I started listening to the Statlers when I was around 7 or 8 and I am almost 51 now ,they were my Dads favorite group. We would ride around in his old Chevy step side truck with the Statlers playing on the 8 track tape deck . I knew where and when my favorite songs were starting no matter what channel happened to be playing at the time. I would recognize the line and start clicking to the channel where my song was starting. I love everything they ever sang but I think This bed of Roses is my all time favorite. I love to hear their “ODE TO JOHNNY CASH “ I believe it’s called “PAID BY CASH “ .Nobody can sing like Don I memorized every inflection in his voice on my favorite songs . God rest your souls Harold and Lew , I believe Lew was their tenor before Jimmy. I was seriously devastated to hear about Harold though.

Wow. I loved this song as a kid. So happy to stumble across it.

It's like the story of Keven Arnold and Winnie Cooper. Meant to be but never was in the end. :(

Wonderful,,song, by a wonderful group

My dad and three aunts grew up on a Maple St during the 1920s and 30s in Nebraska. They lived next door to their aunt, uncle, and cousins. If they were still with us I'm sure this song would bring out a lot of memories.

What a great song, I sure like me it brings back memories, whether there was a Maple Street or not.

My Granny Loved This Video Rip Granny

I was raised in one of the greatest small towns in the country - Jacksonville, Alabama. Many of us consider it our own “Mayberry” and this song reminds me of the wonderful memories of those days.

I think this song gives us the feel of what life once was when growing up someplace. I'm only 47, but so many memories I have of where I grew up still flow through my mind to this day

The cars weren't as reliable as today, but it didn't take an arm and a leg to fix them, and most people could do their own repairs. Good luck with that today.

I grew up in Everett, MA which back in the 60's was a true small town. I can relate to this song whenever I go home. It's not as small anymore, they may even get a Casino, but the memories remain. Love the Statlers.

What a beautiful video. Growing up in the late 50's and early 60's in a small town, I can really relate to this video. It always brings back some wonderful and sad memories that will usually bring a tear or two to my eyes.

Long time ago (I was young) my father bought me The Statler Brothers' Cassette, I listened to it everyday then. I really miss the old good days. Oh how does time fly away? Will the time the good old time ever fly back?

Pretty Kasey❤

This one got me from the get-go. I grew up on Maple Street. A little town in Maryland just outside of D.C.

THIS SONG TAKE ME BACK TO MY CHILDHOOD, THAT WAY I LOVE THIS SONG.

The Statler Brothers, Norman Rockwell in song.

I grew up the Statler Brother`s . My Mom, Grandma, listened to them. I still go back to my youth and listen to the Statler Brother`s , what really good memories I have. Love you Mom, Grandma.

Some guy in this town (Staunton VA) got lost because they moved the "Maple St" sign to another road for this video. To T-Rose, my "Hovis Rd" memories never go away.

We all had a "Maple Street" to remember!

Wish they would have gotten together, but i guess it shows life's not always what we want.

This is one of my favourites! I never got to see them in concert though. Best in country by far! Love you all Gin
