Patsy Cline is one of those stories of human perseverance that transcends toughness. She had a tenacity that only a tragedy would stop. With only her mother and herself supporting the family, she still knew exactly what she had that could not be denied. That voice, infused with passion, from a life that needed passion for day to day survival, would prove unstoppable. The InClines’ "Sweet Dreams of Patsy Cline" is a musical celebration of the life and times of the legendary Patsy Cline. Through narration and song, The InClines revisit Patsy’s life from her humble beginnings to the tragic accident that took her life on March 5, 1963. Lead vocalist, Michelle Anseeuw, brings Patsy’s magical music to life with a two hour show of her best songs. The InClines bring to you that ‘true Nashville sound" reliving such timeless classics as "I Fall To Pieces", "Crazy", and "Walkin’ After Midnight". Michelle is backed by a first rate six piece band, including beautiful harmony singers recreating the unique sound of the "Jordanaires", the original vocalists that sang back-up for Patsy and countless others including Elvis Presley and Jim Reeves. Michelle has performed her "Sweet Dreams of Patsy Cline" show on numerous casino main-stages, theatres, festivals, corporate functions, etc., with overwhelming response! Michelle’s strong vocals and stage presence together with Patsy’s incomparable, timeless music and life story continue to ensure this show’s undying appeal. Patsy Cline recorded just three albums in her lifetime, yet she remains one of the most recognized and beloved names in the history of country music. A half a century after her untimely death, millions of her recordings are still sold every year. Her song “Crazy”, written by Willie Nelson, remains the #1 juke-box hit of all time. Although she could never be replaced, it is The InClines’ sincere hope that their show will help Patsy Cline’s legend live on..

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.

Country Music in the Modern Era: 1940S-1970S New World NW 207
Country Music in the Modern Era: 1940s-1970s New World NW 207 Country music is a commercial art. The music's artistic development is intertwined with the growth of those institutions that helped or hindered the performance of the music. Radio shows, record companies, and television networks have all had a place in the story. Great artists have left their mark on country music's sound, and great executives have had an equal influence on the music by affecting its packaging and availability. The term "country music" came into use only gradually in the years following World War II. "Hillbilly music" had been the term used to characterize the music of the white rural South, but after the war the style came under the influence of popular music and an urban audience, and as the music changed "hillbilly" became less and less accurate. The period between World War II and the middle seventies has generally been one of growth in the audience for this most native of American music traditions. In the twenties and thirties country material was essentially folk music placed on disc. By the end of the thirties the music had diversified to a considerable degree, but much hillbilly music continued to reflect British and American folk song. It was most frequently recorded on location in the South and Southwest. Powerful radio stations like Chicago's WLS and Nashville's WSM broadcast live country music to a growing audience. Bob Wills and his jazz influenced western swing thrilled thousands of country fans in the Southwest. Yet, despite these signs of musical growth and diversity, hillbilly music remained unfocused in the thirties.

“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.
