In 1995, Tracy Lawrence went to Number One with "Texas Tornado".
In 1989, Garth Brooks debuted on the Grand Ole Opry. Mr. Roy like him, so I can, too. I just wish he hadn't strayed so far from his original music, and that he would either retire or unretire. I will tell you that a lot of the old guys love him for reasons that can't be printed, or they might put a contract out on me.
In 1989, Roseanne Cash went to the top of the charts with "I Don't Want To Spoil The Party".

In 1978, Foy Willing, born as Foy Willingham, passed away. He was leader of the Riders of the Purple Sage.
In 1978, The Oak Ridge Boys went to Number One for the first time with "I'll Be True To You".
In 1964, Connie Smith signed with RCA records.

Re: Foy Willing, shouldn't 1978 be the date of his death, or shouldn't it be an earlier date for his birth?
