  • TENNESSEE WALTZ Redd Stewart and Pee Wee King
    CHORAL ARRANGEMENTS • COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME® AND MUSEUM TENNESSEE WALTZ Redd Stewart and Pee Wee King Redd Stewart and Pee Wee King of the Golden West Cowboys wrote “Tennessee Waltz” during the winter of 1946, in the back of a truck while traveling to a show in Nashville, TN. The song tells the story of a sweetheart who loses their beloved to a friend at a dance. “Tennessee Waltz” rose to fame as a country hit for Patti Page in 1950 but was soon a crossover success for numerous other artists, including Sam Cooke, The Chieftains, and Otis Redding. In addition to its national and international commercial success, “Tennessee Waltz” is played by many college marching bands, from North Carolina’s Appalachian State University to Texas’s Baylor University. The State of Tennessee adopted “Tennessee Waltz” as a state song in 1965. I was waltzing with my darlin’ to the Tennessee Waltz When an old friend I happened to see. I introduced her to my loved one and while they were waltzing, My friend stole my sweetheart from me. I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz, Now I know just how much I have lost Yes, I lost my little darlin’ the night they were playin’ The beautiful Tennessee Waltz.

With its aggressive beat and anti-establishment connotations, rockabilly is considered a widely male-dominated genre, a point supported by the majority of scholarship and literature on the subject. However, a review of available contemporary recordings, television shows, advertisements and interviews show that women were an integral part of the history of rockabilly music.

  • The First Waltz (Or the Threshold of Possibility—Part Two) March 7Th, 2021 Rev
    The First Waltz (or The Threshold of Possibility—Part Two) March 7th, 2021 Rev. Dr. Leon Dunkley North Universalist Chapel Society Good morning and good Sunday. I hope that this new day finds you well. My name is Leon Dunkley and I am honored to serve as minister here at North Chapel in Woodstock, VT. Welcome one and all. It is so good to be together. Welcome to the dreamers and the seekers of spirit, to the singers and the dancers of life. Welcome to the wanderers and the worshipers. Welcome to the darkness and the light. Welcome to every blissfully imperfect soul who is just like me, blessed and beloved beneath the shelter of late-winter skies, given in care and compassion for one another, given…as we all are with and forever for one another in grace. To all souls, I say, “Good morning. It is so good to be together.” Today is Sunday, March the 7th and the title of this morning’s reflection is The First Waltz. As you remember, we danced The Last Waltz last Sunday. So, this Sunday is sort of a sequel in reversal, if you will…complete with a telling subtitle, The Threshold of Possibility—Part Two. What are the ways by which we best see beauty? Have we learned to see in the world around us a reflection of the beauty that lies within? And how do we protect that beauty from being stained, tarnished or broken? How do we do our best to set it free? It is interesting to me—is it the same for you as well?—the reflexive quality of beauty…the beauty of music…of dance…of art.

  • Mockingbird Hill Recovery Center Mockingbird Hill Recovery Center
    ‘A model for Indiana & the nation’ Mockingbird Hill Recovery Center is a treatment facility for Substance Use Disorder (SUD) in Anderson, Ind., that houses approximately 92 men. It is a key piece of the Whole Health Recovery Continuum developed by Aspire Indiana Health and Progress House. Mockingbird Hill is different from most treatment centers because it was created to serve people from every walk of life, regardless of income. It brings a powerful array of services, including onsite medical and behavioral healthcare, along with the most recent evidence-based practices to bear in treating the disease of addiction. Sprawling across a gorgeous 13-acre campus of trees and rolling hills, Mockingbird Hill will serve as an oasis Mockingbird Hill for those suffering from SUD who want to turn their lives around. Mockingbird Hill is credentialed as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) and Indiana Community Mental Health Center (CMHC), and certified to national recovery residence standards by the Indiana Affiliation of Recovery Center Recovery Residences (INARR). A New Song of Hope White House officials from the Office of National Drug Control Policy have called it “a model for Indiana and the nation.” Mockingbird Hill: A musical legacy Mockingbird Hill Park was a famous outdoor concert venue for country, bluegrass and blues music from the 1950s through the 1970s. Countless stars played here: Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, Patsy Cline, Hank Williams Jr., Jerry Lee Lewis, George Jones, Marty Robbins, Merle Haggard and many more. The name came from the song “Mockin’ Bird Hill,” written in 1915 by Carl “Calle” Jularbo that became popular in the early 1950s after Patti Page recorded it, followed by many other artists who produced their own versions in the years after.

  • “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.
