  • “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.

  • Steven Noel Wariner, Nom De Scène Steve, Né Le 25 Décembre 1954 À
    Steven Noel Wariner, nom de scène Steve, né le 25 Décembre 1954 à Noblesville dans l’Indiana est un Américain compositeur, guitariste et chanteur qui se situe dans la Country Music. Influencé très tôt par George Jones et Chet Atkins, Wariner a commencé à jouer de la musique professionnellement à un âge précoce. Il est élevé par ses parents Roy et llene dans un environnement musical. A neuf ans il joue de la batterie puis commence à s’intéresser à la ‘’ Danelectro ’’ la guitare basse de son père, instrument qu’il maitrise assez rapidement. Par la suite Steve fera partie de l’orchestre de son père le ‘’ Roy Wariner Band’’. Ils se produisent à Russell Springs dans le Kentucky et participeront plus tard à des émissions de radio locale et de télévision. Steve dit : ‘’Ma famille a beaucoup déménagé. Quand j'étais en sixième, dans les années 1968 ou 1969, alors que mes copains jouaient à l’extérieur, ou allaient à la piscine du parc, moi, je faisais de la musique et répétais. C’est pour cela que je dis parfois que mon enfance a été courte, mais le bon coté des choses c’est que j’ai maitrisé assez rapidement ma musique. Roy Wariner Il a publié dix-huit albums studio, dont six sur MCA Records, et trois sur chacun des labels suivants : RCA Records, Arista Records et Capitol Records. Plus de cinquante singles ont été classés dans les Billboard Charts en country Music, dont dix Number One.
