March 6 In Country Music History
In 1999, George Jones was severly injured when he plowed into a bridge in Franklin, Tennessee.
In 1982, the smooth deep-voiced Ed Bruce went to the Number One spot with "You're The Best Break This Old Heart Ever Had".
In 1905, Bob Wills, founder and leader of the Texas Playboys, was born in Texas. Willie may be playing in Austin, tonight, but Bob Wills is still the King. And it is rightfully so, as he wrote and recorded many of the best Texas swing hits ever recorded. "Faded Love", "Take Me Back To Tulsa", and "San Antonio Rose" are just a few of the hits penned by Wills.
In 1836, many good men lost their lives at the Alamo, as Texas loyalists fought for her independence. It reminds me of "The Ballad of Davey Crockett" that was performed by Tennessee Ernie Ford, Mac Wiseman, and the Kentucky Headhunters. In view of things going on in America today, I might add that I think it would be wise for us to remember the Alamo. Enough said......
