April 8 in Country Music History
In 1989, Keith Whitley went to Number One on the charts with "I'm No Stranger To The Rain". I still wonder what the country music scene would be like today had he lived longer.
In 1978, Charlie Pride was at Number One with "Someone Loves You Honey".
In 1961, Faron Young went to Number One on the charts with "Hello Walls".
In 1960, John Schneider, singer and actor was born in Mount Kisco, New York. Of his seventeen charted country hits, four of them were Number Ones.
In 1936, Western Swing pioneer Milton Brown was injured in a horrific auto accident. For more on this great, click here:
