Biogra;phy of

ROGER MILLER

That the man never sleeps is one of the first things you hear about Roger Miller, a legendary insomniac whose open-eyed marathons are as famous as his unending string of American songs. A while back, an admiring amateur keeper of late hours asked Miller's drummer how long the champ could stay awake? "Well," replied the musician, "I'm not sure, I've only been with Roger a year and a half -- I don't know how long he was awake before that." The no-sleep syndrome has evolved into a lifestyle that regards sunshine as something that happens to other people. Contrary to the rest of the world, Miller is a nightbird who has been known to schedule everything from recording sessions to business meetings after the sun goes down. The extra hours keep him one jump ahead of the game. He writes songs effortlessly -- in cars, dressing rooms, airplanes, offices, hotel rooms, at all hours. At times unfinished songs, fragmented ideas and melody lines are left about untended on envelopes, checks, napkins and even gum wrappers. One long time friend insists that several great Miller masterpieces have been lost forever on thrown out spearmint wrappers.

Once, strictly a country sin9er, Miller's work has transcended musical boundaries with an agility previously unequalled in Opry circles. Authorities as diverse as and have heralded Miller as a bona fide genius, with the jazzman adding,

"nobody can write better songs. He's said it all."

That's not idle praise.

Miller, lean and laconic, banters around wordplay with astonish­ ing ease ("the last word in lonesome is me") while manipulating traditional country stylization ("I've been a long time leavin'/but

I'll be a long time gone.") Miller, with typical understatement says of his creative spurts, "I write a line at a time, really. A line comes to me and I sit down and sing it and then I write the next line and then I have two lines and I sing them. Then I do a third line and sing all three1 then come up with the fourth. It's a line at a time, it's go back and come to it, it's like hitting a brick wall and each time you hit it, it gives a little. You find you've gotten the wall to give enough until you've written a whole song."

Making the brick wall give originates in an erratic Oklahoma childhood. "My father died when I was a year old, 11 remembers Miller,

"there were three little boys, I was the youngest and my mother

couldn't support us so she was going to put us in an orphanage. My

father had three brothers and one lived in Arkansas, one in Oklahoma

and one in California. Each came and took a boy home and raised him.

I went to Oklahoma."

While growing up, Miller worked his uncle~s farm, joined the Future Farmers of America, went to a one room school and dreamed of country and western glory. One of his friends during that time remembers Miller's uncle saying "when the boy grows up he wants to be just like Sheb." Sheb was, of course, Sheb Wooley, the country singer and an in-law of the Miller clan.

But the future lure of the spotlight hardly compensated for the present reality of the farm. "I hated it all," Miller laughs.

"But I hated most of all on Saturdays cleaning out the chicken house. A lot of people who grew up on a farm will know why!

"I said, Lord give me a guitar and let me get out of here and make something of the world." Laughing he adds, "so I've worked hard for 20 years in this business trying to get enough money to buy a little land and settle down in the country. The circles go around and around."

While in school, Miller picked cotton on Saturdays to earn the money to buy a second hand guitar, He mastered a few chords and figured it was just a matter of time before stardom came dropping down like manna from Heaven. For the next three years he drifted from Oklahoma to Texas working at odd jobs, while waiting for the

Big Break. It came in the form of an invitation from Uncle Sam to join the band in Korea. It proved to be something of a blessing.

"When I got into the army, I finally met some guys who really knew something about the guitar and they taught me and I learned what I could.

(more) /4.

"When I was stationed in South Carolina I met this Sargeant who said he had a brother in the business, Jethro of Homer and

Jethro. This sargeant could play the bass as well as Jethro could play the mandolin and we used to sit in the barracks and play. He was the one who really convinced me to go to Nashville after I got out of the army. I was probably going back to Oklahoma anc work in a gas station."

The sargeant arranged an RCA audition for the now discharged veteran, but the session turned out rather dismal. "I just walked in and said to , 'I want to audition, I'm a ' and he said 'well, where's your guitar'? I said 'I don't have one and he said 'you can use mine'. So there's Chet Atkins and I'm using his guitar and I sang in one key and played in another. It was a disaster."

In Nashville, broke and married, without any concrete offers to join the ranks of the stars, he scrambled to stay alive. Working as a bellhop at the Andrew Jackson Hotel, playing fiddle with

Minnie Pearl and drumming with Faron Young gave Miller the monetary base needed to keep going. A few of his songs did relatively well for other people. "Invitation to the Blues" was recorded by Ray

Price and ; "Half A Mind" by Ernest Tubbs and "Billy Bayou" by Jim Reeves.

"I had come to Nashville to be a singer, but I was unorthodox

I guess. I'd sing songs for people and they'd say that would be good for someone else. I'd say what about me and they'd say, we'll

get to you later ••• and it was quite a bit later they got to me."

Five years to be exact; or 1964 when Miller made music history by winning the first batch of what would be 11 Grammys over a two year period; an all-time record.

"Chug A Lug," "Dang Me," "Engine, Engine #9," "In the Summer­

time" and of course, "King of the Road" all written and released within months of each other, each reaching the number one spot

and each selling over a million copies. It's estimated that "King of the Road" has been recorded about 300 times. Miller's recording

alone sold 2~ millio~ copies and he candidly says of it's success,

"It kept me off the streets."

It also kept him at the forefront of a music industry that was about to go legitimate, to take itself out of the small town

halls into the plush nightclubs of Las Vegas, about to go from being

a regional favorite to a national pastime, about to go from being

the poor relation of music to the number one son.

"Country music is good music, saleable, not on a narrow scale.

I always wanted to take it to town.

"Back in 1966, I was on the cover of the Post and I remember

the words under the picture said 'big boom in country music.' So

there's a big boom in country music about every five years. I think

this time it's going to stay pretty heavy."

-o- /6.

Miller was one of the first country artists to make the leap

to national television and Las Vegas. With an easy wit that has been likened by reporters to a Will Rogers, Miller's droll manner betrays a quick mind and a clever tongue. It's a personna that's

left very few doors unopened.

"I like it all," he says, "singing, writing, all of it. I

like to do all I can. I like to go on stage and fool around. I'd

like to go on stage driving a tractor. You know how to tell a

funeral in a small town? The front tractor has it's lights on."

For a country-boy he has done rather well for himself. Eleven

Grammys, dozens of million-selling singles, a voice as distinctive

as they come, a solid following with audiences from Las Vegas to

the Grande Old Opry, and the current leisure to step back and take

a rest.

Joking he says, "I'd like to get up one morning, or afternoon

and not have to be anywhere, not be writing or recording or running

off to a date."

His latest Columbia "Roger Miller Supersongs," with a

single "I Love A Rodeo," both of which were produced, written, sung

and published by Miller, is a superb blending of music that can't

be catalogued in any particular genre ••• except perhaps that it's

Roger at his very best.

When he's not on the road, Miller lives in the Hollywood Hills

in a home originally built by John Barrymore as an aviary, which

still boosts the interior design of former tenant Candace Bergen.

With some awe, Miller says Katherine Hepburn once rented the house

and "can you imagine the people who sat in this living room?" They're

in good company. -o-
