  • Johnny Cash by Dave Hoekstra Sept
    Johnny Cash by Dave Hoekstra Sept. 11, 1988 HENDERSONVILLE, Tenn. A slow drive from the new steel-and-glass Nashville airport to the old stone-and-timber House of Cash in Hendersonville absorbs a lot of passionate land. A couple of folks have pulled over to inspect a black honky-tonk piano that has been dumped along the roadway. Cabbie Harold Pylant tells me I am the same age Jesus Christ was when he was crucified. Of course, this is before Pylant hands over a liter bottle of ice water that has been blessed by St. Peter. This is life close to the earth. Johnny Cash has spent most of his 56 years near the earth, spiritually and physically. He was born in a three-room railroad shack in Kingsland, Ark. Father Ray Cash was an indigent farmer who, when unable to live off the black dirt, worked on the railroad, picked cotton, chopped wood and became a hobo laborer. Under a New Deal program, the Cash family moved to a more fertile northeastern Arkansas in 1935, where Johnny began work as a child laborer on his dad's 20-acre cotton farm. By the time he was 14, Johnny Cash was making $2.50 a day as a water boy for work gangs along the Tyronza River. "The hard work on the farm is not anything I've ever missed," Cash admitted in a country conversation at his House of Cash offices here, with Tom T. Hall on the turntable and an autographed picture of Emmylou Harris on the wall.

  • Porter Wagoners Tent
    Nov. 15, 1992---- The Grand Ole Opry is the country's longest-running live music and variety radio program. It's fitting that one of country music's longest-running live wires will represent the Opry when it is inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame on Sunday at the Museum of Broadcast Communications in Chicago. Country singer Porter Wagoner will make a rare stop in Chicago to accept the honors from special guests the Oak Ridge Boys, along with new inductees Don Ameche, "Top 40 Countdown" poobah Casey Kasem, Detroit morning personality J.P. McCarthy and ABC broadcast legend Leonard Goldenson. The program will be broadcast live on WGN-AM and be beamed back to Nashville on WSM-AM, where the Grand Ole Opry was born on Nov. 28, 1925, as "The WSM Barn Dance." Wagoner is from a different era of country music. He first appeared at the Opry in 1957, when he sang his hit "Satisfied Mind" at the old Ryman Auditorium in downtown Nashville. Country music was characterized by a spunky self-reliance, found in the topical breadth of its songs as well as the colorful showmanship of its singers. Few were as colorful as Porter Wagoner: He was one of the first country artists to exploit the broadcast industry. As early as 1951, he appeared on radio with "The Ozark Jubilee," broadcast from KWTO-AM in Springfield, Mo. While at KWTO, Wagoner met Radio Hall of Famer Paul Harvey, who will host Sunday's ceremony. And from 1960 to 1980, Wagoner reached a television audience of up to 45 million with his syndicated "Porter Wagoner Show." One of Wagoner's key sponsors was the Chattanooga Medicine Co., a pharmaceutical outfit that sold Soltice heat rubs, hygenic supplies and Black Draught laxative, promoted as "the fastest-moving product in the South." The permanently pompadoured Wagoner introduced the rhinestone Nudie suit.

  • “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.

Hay, who labeled himself "The Solemn Old Judge," but was neither old nor a judge, realized he had started a good thing that fateful night; and WHEREAS, this acclaimed radio show followed an NBC network radio program on Saturday nights called The Music Appreciation Hour; in 1928, Mr. Hay announced on the air, "For the past hour we have been listening to music taken largely from the Grand Opera, but now we will present the Grand Ole Opry"; the name stuck and the rest is history; and WHEREAS, crowds of people would come to the studio and stand in corridors to enjoy the Grand Ole Opry in person; WSM then decided to move the Opry to its own home, Studio C, wisely believing
