  • 649 Robert Gentry‟S Louisiana Hayride Collection
    649 Robert Gentry‟s Louisiana Hayride Collection Archives and Special Collections Louisiana State University in Shreveport Shreveport, Louisiana Biography Tillman Franks was born in Stamps, Arkansas on September 29, 1920 but moved to Shreveport, Louisiana at the age of two. As a teenager he contracted the flu and was confined to bed. To pass the time he listened repeatedly to Roy Acuff‟s Would You Care?and was impressed with the sincerity of the artist. He decided at that young age to make Country Music his profession. He graduated from Byrd High School where he formed the band, The Rainbow Boys with Claude King and Buddy Attaway. He volunteered for the U.S. Army in 1942 and was sent to the island of Saipan where he formed another band and had a radio program on WXLD. Discharged in 1945, he came home and married Virginia Suber in 1946. In 1946, he got a job playing bass on KWKH and worked with Webb Pierce and the Bailes Brothers who invited him to play with them on the inaugural Louisiana Hayride broadcast. That launched his music career and he began making friends with young artists whom he guided or would later manage. He developed the careers of so many well known artists who are all mentioned in his book which he published in 2000. He died at the age of eighty-six on October 26, 2006, but not without appreciation. A Tillman Franks Appreciation Day was celebrated in 1996 where many famous artists came to pay tribute to his talents and his accomplishments.

  • “The Stories Behind the Songs”
    “The Stories Behind The Songs” John Henderson The Stories Behind The Songs A compilation of “inside stories” behind classic country hits and the artists associated with them John Debbie & John By John Henderson (Arrangement by Debbie Henderson) A fascinating and entertaining look at the life and recording efforts of some of country music’s most talented singers and songwriters 1 Author’s Note My background in country music started before I even reached grade school. I was four years old when my uncle, Jack Henderson, the program director of 50,000 watt KCUL-AM in Fort Worth/Dallas, came to visit my family in 1959. He brought me around one hundred and fifty 45 RPM records from his station (duplicate copies that they no longer needed) and a small record player that played only 45s (not albums). I played those records day and night, completely wore them out. From that point, I wanted to be a disc jockey. But instead of going for the usual “comedic” approach most DJs took, I tried to be more informative by dropping in tidbits of a song’s background, something that always fascinated me. Originally with my “Classic Country Music Stories” site on Facebook (which is still going strong), and now with this book, I can tell the whole story, something that time restraints on radio wouldn’t allow. I began deejaying as a career at the age of sixteen in 1971, most notably at Nashville’s WENO-AM and WKDA- AM, Lakeland, Florida’s WPCV-FM (past winner of the “Radio Station of the Year” award from the Country Music Association), and Springfield, Missouri’s KTTS AM & FM and KWTO-AM, but with syndication and automation which overwhelmed radio some twenty-five years ago, my final DJ position ended in 1992.
