  • WHOLE LOTTA MAN Marvin Rainwater
    Chapter 8 – Marvin Rainwater 8 WHOLE LOTTA MAN Marvin Rainwater A larger-than-life character steeped in traditional country music, Marvin Rainwater started his hitmaking career with Gonna Find Me A Bluebird and The Majesty Of Love (a duet with Connie Francis), and went on to top the UK charts in 1958 with Whole Lotta Woman , but after a couple of smaller hits his popularity faded. Somewhere along the line, a real talent — still underrated to this day — missed its way. After battling throat cancer, Rainwater re-emerged during the rockabilly revival of the 1970s and nowadays continues to successfully combine his outside business interests with recording and performing. I was born Marvin Karlton Rainwater on July 2, 1925 in Wichita, Kansas. Mother's maiden name was Stella Arbell Miller and my father was Cicero Percy Rainwater. I had one older brother, Don (George Donald) who died last year and have two younger brothers, Ray (Percy Raymond) and Bob (Robert Eugene), and a sister, Patty (Patricia Lucille). Some say that our surname originated from English, some say French and some say Indian, but I don't know for sure. I am no relation whatsoever to Cedric Rainwater the bluegrass guitarist, as Rainwater was not his real name — he used it as a stage name. Father was an auto and truck mechanic and mother was a housewife. We lived in Wichita and Esben, Kansas; Muskogee and Tulsa, Oklahoma; Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee. I studied classical piano when I was a little boy. My mama took in washings — which was a lot of work for her — and got us a piano.

  • Country Music Country Music in Missouri Country Bios
    Country Music Country music is a genre of popular music that originated in the rural South in the 1920s, with roots in fiddle music, old-time music, blues and various types of folk music. Originally called “hillbilly music” and sometimes called “country and western,” the name “country music” or simply “country” gained popularity in the 1940s. Many recent country artists use elements of pop and rock. Country music often consists in ballads with simple forms and harmonies, accompanied by guitar or banjo with a fiddle. Country bands now often include a steel guitar, bass and drums. Country Music in Missouri Missourians love country music, as evidenced by the large number of country music radio stations, the number of country artists on festivals and presented by concert venues around the state, the country music artists who make their home and perform regularly in the popular tourist destination of Branson, Missouri, and the many Missouri musicians and bands who play country music in the bars and clubs in their local community. “The Sources of Country Music,” a painting by well-known Missouri artist Thomas Hart Benton hangs in the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville. Ralph Peer (1892-1960), born in Independence, Missouri, worked for Columbia Records in Kansas City until 1920 when he took a job for OKeh Records in New York and supervised the recording of “Crazy Blues” by Mamie Smith, the first blues recording aimed at African- Americans. In 1924 he supervised the first commercial recording session in New Orleans, recording jazz, blues and gospel music.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand marking: or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
