  • “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.

Briggs juggled instruments and genres through the decades, playing piano and organ on country hits by Charley Pride and Jerry Reed, by Alabama and Reba McEntire, and by Kenny Chesney and Shania Twain. On the rock side, Briggs recording with by Eric Andersen, Joan Baez, Beau Brummels, J.J. Cale, the Monkees, and Bob Seger.

(August 2011) Adam Clay Griffey, B.A., Berea College M.A., English, Appalachian State University M.A., History, Appalachian State University Thesis Chairperson: Dr. James Goff At the end of the 1960s, with the United States escalating a war overseas while a revolution stirred at home, Bob Dylan retreated from his public (if unasked for) role as a spokesman for the political Left, and wrote and recorded two albums of country music. In so doing he merged his abiding interest in the apocalyptic with that of the events of his times. This thesis looks at the history behind John Wesley Harding (1967) and Nashville Skyline (1969) and argues for their relevance as expressions of both the country music tradition and to the history of apocalyptic prophecy. Chapter I discusses Dylan‘s place in the lineage of biblical prophecy and eschatological writing.

  • Ringo Starr 2015.Pdf
    AWARD FOR MUSICAL EXCELLENCE Ringo Starr By Parke Puterbaugh He set the standard for rock & roll drumming with his solid rhythmic underpinning and tasteful percussive musicaUty. THE BEATLES JOINED THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF Fame in 1988 as part of its stellar third class (which included Bob Dylan and the Beach Boys). With Ringo Starr receiving an Award for Musical Excellence this year, all four Beatles are now in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as individuals as well. This is fitting, as Starr’s mod­ est, affable persona belies a lifetime of musical achievement that pre­ dates, postdates, and, of course, includes his eight years as drummer with the most popular and influential group in the history of music. Starr’s main contribution was to devise a fundamental and endur­ ing approach to rock & roll drumming. From the start, Ringo’s style has combined a solid rhythmic underpinning with tasteful percus­ sive musicality. He is a song-serving drummer. As he told Britain’s Melody Maker in 1976, “Drumming’s simple. I’ve always believed the drummer is not there to interrupt the song.” ^ Ringo has long been noticed by musicians for his steady timekeeping, artful fills, and uncluttered style. Producer Don Was stated, “He is the lead­ ing and most musical drummer to influence generations of musi­ cians.” His style may seem uncomplicated, but it requires discipline, restraint, and an aesthetic sense about what to put in and leave out. Ringo assembled a drum set that, by virtue of the Beatles’ fathomless popularity, became preferred by rock drummers of the sixties and be­ yond.

  • The Wilburn Brothers Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Wilburn: “Trouble’S Back in Town.” by Warren Zanes
    TRACK TWENTY-ONE The Wilburn Brothers Thirteen ways of looking at a Wilburn: “Trouble’s Back in Town.” by Warren Zanes 1) THEY WERE JUST CHILDREN, out on the road playing shows, their father acting as manager, driver, and accountant, when coun- try star Roy Acuff heard them sing. It was a set-up. The manager/driver/accountant father, eager to advance his family’s predicament in one of the few ways a poor Arkansas family could, had arranged for his singing children to be waiting outside the back- stage door, ready to do an ambush “audition” as Acuff left the venue. When they saw the star emerge, they broke into “Farther Along.” And it was like the whole town went quiet when they started to sing. Acuff stopped, put his guitar case down. Those voices took him somewhere. As Acuff would later remark, there’s nothing like young singers hitting the high notes, not knowing better than to share a little unguarded emotion. 2) “Pop Wilburn started them at home. Believe it or not, he built a stage in the backyard. They’d play for the neighbors…. It was the Depression. He wanted a better life for them than he had had for himself.” —Arvemia Wilburn (wife of Leslie Wilburn, Doyle’s and Teddy’s brother) 3) Acuff’s introduction secured the Wilburn Family a spot on the Grand Ole Opry. A mere six months later, it was in the name of child-labor laws that they were escorted off that hallowed stage. A tough bunch worked the child-labor beat, dogging the halls of enter- tainment with morality on their side.
