  • I'll Fly Away
    “I’ll Fly Away”—The Chuck Wagon Gang (1948) Added to the National Registry: 2016 Essay by Bill C. Malone (guest post)* Early label “I’ll Fly Away” is one of the most performed songs in the world, counting not only the multitude of recordings of it, but also the innumerable public and private performances made in formal concerts and jam sessions. Like “You Are My Sunshine,” it is one of the few songs that everyone seems to know, at least in part. It was written by one of America’s most respected gospel composers, Albert E. Brumley, whose songs have circulated widely in gospel, country, and bluegrass music. They won their initial popularity during the Great Depression particularly among “plain folk” who sought reassurance of God’s presence, of escape, or of comforting memories of parents and the old home. Brumley was born into a cotton tenant farm family on October 29, 1905 near Spiro, Oklahoma, when that part of the state was still Indian territory. He learned the shape-note style--a system of notation in which shapes are used to depict the musical scale--under the pioneer gospel composer Eugene M. Bartlett, at the Hartford Musical Institute in Hartford, Arkansas. He later worked for the Hartford Publishing Company as an itinerant singing school teacher and sang bass with one of its touring quartets, whose principal business was to sell their paperback hymnals. In 1927, Hartford published Brumley’s “I Can Hear Them Singing Over There,” the first of approximately 800 compositions written for that company and the Stamps-Baxter concern in Dallas.

  • 1 Amazing Grace
    1Amazing Grace BY JOHN NEWTON 1. Amazing grace, how sweet the sound That saves a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I'm found; Was bound, but now I’m free. 2. 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear And grace my fear relieved; How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed. 3. Through many dangers, toils and snares We have already come; 'Twas grace that brought us safe thus far, And grace will lead us on. 4. When we've been there ten thousand years, Bright shining as the sun, We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we’d first begun. 5. Amazing grace, how sweet the sound That saves a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I'm found; Was bound, but now I'm free. 2Just aCloser Walk With Thee TRADITIONAL 1. Just a closer walk with Thee, Grant it, Jesus, is my plea; Daily walking close with Thee, Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. 2. Through the days of toil and snares, If I falter, Lord, who cares? Who with me my burden shares? None but Thee, dear Lord, none but Thee. 3. When my feeble life is o'er Time for me will be no more; Guide me gently, safely on To thy shore, dear Lord, to thy shore. 4. I am weak, but Thou art strong. Jesus, keep me from all wrong. I'll be satisfied as long As I walk, let me walk close to Thee.

  • Merle Haggard and Bob Dylan
    March 20, 2005---- Life has been a ragged but righteous journey for Bob Dylan and Merle Haggard. Their occasionally parallel journeys stretch back to 1969. That was the year country music really started crossing over into rock, and rock into country: Dylan released the landmark "Nashville Skyline" album, which featured Johnny Cash and delivered the hit "Lay Lady Lay." The Rolling Stones even cut a country-tinged LP, "Let It Bleed." Haggard, meanwhile, had the biggest commercial hit of his career that year with his anti-hippie anthem "Okie From Muskogee" before moving to an edgier rock sound with "Pride in What I Am," released in early 1970. "Everybody started swinging to the right. So I swung to the left. Or vice-versa," Haggard said recently from his home outside Lake Shasta, Calif., before embarking on a tour with Dylan, which stops April 1-3, 5 and 6 at the Auditorium Theatre. "I was looking for an opening, looking for a void. I try to be honest with my writing. I'm a guitar player. I try not to be redundant." And also in 1969, Dylan's and Haggard's itinerant worlds first crossed when they both appeared on the Johnny Cash television show, taped at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville (the Mother Church of country music). Dylan and Cash sang "Girl From the North Country" with Cash; Haggard and Cash sang "Sing Me Back Home." "Bob and I have rubbed shoulders a lot of times since 1969," Haggard said. "But I really don't know Bob. I am in awe of him.
