    <BillNo> <Sponsor> HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION 790 By Beck A RESOLUTION to recognize and honor the Grand Ole Opry on the celebration of its ninety-fifth anniversary. WHEREAS, the members of this General Assembly are proud to specially recognize a legendary institution that has contributed significantly to the country music industry and brought acclaim to the State of Tennessee the world over; and WHEREAS, no mass media event is more associated with the State of Tennessee than the WSM radio program known as The Grand Ole Opry. Not only is The Grand Ole Opry the longest-running radio show in U.S. history, but it is renowned as the cornerstone for the dynamic commercial art form of country music; and WHEREAS, the Grand Ole Opry and its offspring comprise, or are affiliated with, the State's major tourist attractions, and the Opry's commercial power and attraction have been the primary reasons for Nashville's emergence as a music recording center; and WHEREAS, the saga of the Grand Ole Opry began on the night of November 28, 1925, when a young announcer on Nashville radio station WSM introduced an eighty-year-old fiddle player, Uncle Jimmy Thompson, as the first performer on a new show called The WSM Barn Dance; and WHEREAS, announcer George D. 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, now, ninety-five years later, the radio show Mr. Hay started is still going strong; the Opry is the foundation for a huge entertainment and resort complex and has been instrumental in Nashville claiming the title of Music City U.S.A.; and WHEREAS, this acclaimed radio show followed an NBC network radio program on Saturday nights called The Music Appreciation Hour; in 1928, Mr.

  • Multimillion-Selling Singer Crystal Gayle Has Performed Songs from a Wide Variety of Genres During Her Award-Studded Career, B
    MultiMillion-selling singer Crystal Gayle has performed songs from a wide variety of genres during her award-studded career, but she has never devoted an album to classic country music. Until now. You Don’t Know Me​ is a collection that finds the acclaimed stylist exploring the songs of such country legends as George Jones, Patsy Cline, Buck Owens and Eddy Arnold. The album might come as a surprise to those who associate Crystal with an uptown sound that made her a star on both country and adult-contemporary pop charts. But she has known this repertoire of hardcore country standards all her life. “This wasn’t a stretch at all,” says Crystal. “These are songs I grew up singing. I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time. “The songs on this album aren’t songs I sing in my concerts until recently. But they are very much a part of my history.” Each of the selections was chosen because it played a role in her musical development. Two of them point to the importance that her family had in bringing her to fame. You Don’t Know Me contains the first recorded trio vocal performance by Crystal with her singing sisters Loretta Lynn and Peggy Sue. It is their version of Dolly Parton’s “Put It Off Until Tomorrow.” “You Never Were Mine” comes from the pen of her older brother, Jay Lee Webb (1937-1996). The two were always close. Jay Lee was the oldest brother still living with the family when their father passed away.

  • MY SATURDAY NIGHT at the GRAND OLE OPRY by Wayne Hogan Herald•Citizen, Cookeville, TN Sunday, 9 December 2012, Pg
    MY SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE GRAND OLE OPRY By Wayne Hogan Herald•Citizen, Cookeville, TN Sunday, 9 December 2012, pg. C•4 ‘Writer’s Corner’ Editor’s note: This was originally written by Hogan in 1993. They call it the “Grand Ole Opry.” That’s what former newspaper reporter George D. Hay, its inventor, named it not long after the first group of performers had stood before their open mikes that first Saturday night and had their down•home music and vaudeville•comic routines beamed out over Nashville’s WSM•650 “clear•channel” radio to nearly all of America, way back in 1925. Nineteen hundred and twenty five. The year Nashville’s venerable Grand Ole Opry was born. It’s hardly missed a heartbeat since. Almost since its first moments, the Grand Ole Opry has been Mecca to the millions who’ve, over the years, come to Nashville to savor the finest in “country” music. It was not till a few short years ago, through, that I became one of those “savorers.” For a long time, I hated “country music” (which, as I’m sure you know, has been called “hillbilly music” much of its life and mine). Could barely stand to think of it, much less listen to it. Well, to make what could easily be a longer story shorter, Susan and I’d often talked about getting a couple of tickets and driving the 80 miles to Nashville some Saturday night to experience this “Grand Ole Opry” thing in person. See if it was all that our mind’s eye image had it cracked up to be.

  • The Indiana Magazine of History
    THE INDIANA MAGAZINE OF HISTORY VOL. VIII DECEMBER, 1912 No. 4 MORGAN’S RAID IN INDIANA. BY MARGRETTE BOYER. [The following painstaking study of Morgan’s Raid in Indiana was pre- pared as a thesis by Miss Boyer, a student in Butler College. It is the fullest account we have seen, and as such we are glad to give it publicity, believ- ing it to be a valuable addition to the literature that exists on this romantic episode of our State’s history.-E~~To~.] STUDY of Morgan’s raid in Indiana reveals that it was im- A portant in the history of the State and of the nation. It is not from a military standpoint, however, that we can estimate the historical value of this dashing exploit. It had practically no influence upon the outcome of the Civil War, and it failed in all that it meant to accomplish. Contrary to its designed purpose of working injury to the Union cause, the raid ultimately proved a blessing. The State of Indiana seemed for a time to be waver- ing in its loyalty. The raid offered an opportunity for the In- diana people to show their devotion to the national government, and they did so nobly. Indiana proved herself staunchly bound to the Union. This Morgan’s raid did accomplish, and for this reason it deserves a place in history. General Morgan’s theory of waging war was to go deep into the heart of the enemy’s country. He had sought long and earn- estly for permission to put this theory into practice.

He’d also been stuffing four twenty-dollar bills in each boot sole. By mid- July the money had begun to shred and smell like feet. One otherwise unpromising afternoon there’d been a shiny Coupe de Ville out on Ranch Road #5. It was metallic blue. Throwing sun spirals and stars off the bumpers. He and Ben Toy had watched its approach for six or eight miles of scruffy Panhandle desert. They were doing nothing. “Bored sick and dying fast on a fencerail,” Berryman had said earlier. Toy had only half-smiled. “You heard about that greaseball Raymond Cone? I suppose you did,” the conversation was going now.
