STORY BEHIND THE SONG
To most recording artists, finding the right song as a follow-up to a hit record is just as big a task as getting that hit record in the first place. And according to T. G. Shepherd, such was the case with his 1975 number one, "Tryin' To Beat The Morning Home."
T. G. commented, "I had searched for a song to follow "Devil in The Bottle" and was not having any success. Then one night I was just sitting around with Elroy Kahanek and Red Williams, and someone --- I don't remember who --- yelled out something about "Tryin' To Beat The Morning Home." We all agreed that it was a good title and a good idea so we wrote it."
His Melodyland Records single, "Tryin To Beat The Morning Home" came on the country music charts April 12th, 1975 and was in the top slot the week of June 28th.
It was his second charted song and was on the charts for 15 weeks.
The single also scored a # 95 on the pop charts.

A WEIRD LITTLE HOSPITAL EPISODE.
By: Jack Blanchard
Here's a weird little episode from my hospital stay in 2008.
I was told not to eat or drink anything for twelve hours before checking in.
After checking in there was a six hour delay before my surgery,
and then more hours of no eating or drinking during surgery and after it was over.
I woke up starving and thirsty,
but there was a sign on my room door that said "NPO".
NPO is an abbreviation of the Latin "Non per os" or "Nothing by mouth".
This is like the Catholics calling the Bingo numbers in Latin
so the Protestants can't win.
I had a new nurse who was friendly enough,
but not the type who would sneak you stuff.
She said I would probably get food and drink soon,
but not to have anything until she found out for sure..
A few minutes later a tray of beautiful food was wheeled in and presented to me.
I thought that maybe the nurse had worked it out for me,
but I also thought that it might be a mistake.
I put that out of my mind and began eating.
Just then the nurse walked in and said "Who gave you that food?"
Between gulps I said "Didn't you order it?"
She raised her voice and said" And I gave you specific orders not to eat..."
I started eating faster.
She was getting louder when I noticed a huge cherry cobbler on the far side of the tray,
and went for it.
She yelled and I ate at full speed ahead.
She threw up her hands and stormed out of the room.
Speaking of "threw up",
later that night I barfed up something that appeared to be extra-terrestrial,
and the whole hospital went into red alert.
They rushed samples of my output to the lab,
and somebody thought I was poisoned.
Someone else mentioned carbolic acid, and others suspected internal bleeding.
I had a crowd around my bed and staff members running in and out of the room.
Then the news came back from the laboratory:
"No sign of poison, blood or anything harmful."
I guess the lab technicians weren't looking for cherry cobbler.

TODAY IN COUNTRY MUSIC HISTORY
compiled by Bill Morrison
1875 - Dr. Humphrey Bate 1875-1936, "Dean of the Grand Ole Opry" was born in Sumner County, Tennessee. The licensed M.D. would become a country music pioneer, and early star of the Grand Ole Opry, along with his band the Possum Hunters.
1893 - Ernest "Pop" Stoneman 1893~1968, of the "Stoneman Family" was born in Monarat, Virginia. Pop Stoneman will be inducted into the CMHF in 2008.
1931 - James Belken 1931~2000, was born on this date. Jim played Country and Western Swing fiddle for the top artists; Haggard, Wills, Price, Tillis, Foley and many others.
1936 - Tom T. Hall, The Storyteller, was born in a log cabin, in Olive Hill, Kentucky. A very special man is Tom T. Hall. I believe it was Ralph Emery who was once quoted as saying "If T. could play golf a little better he would be the perfect man." But then, I might be wrong about that quote. It might have been Grammy winner Randy Kohrs, a former member of T.'s band, or any number of Nashville's older music community. Everybody loves Tom T. and Miss Dixie. I know for sure that Ernest Tubb loved him like a son, so that pretty much tells you everything you need to know about this songwriting legend...except… when Tootsie Bess, owner and founder of Tootsie's Orchid Lounge in Nashville died, it was Tom T. who went to the legendary watering hole and ask to see the cigar box, where Tootsie kept all of the unpaid tabs. These were the tabs of unemployed singers, songwriters, and some of the best musicians in the world, dating back several years. Tom put the tabs on a table, added up the total amount due, and paid the debt in full. When Tom came to Nashville he had forty-six dollars and an old guitar, and a God given gift. Tom T. Hall is a very special man, and the history of country music has been enhanced by the man, and his gift.
1938 - Vernon Presley was sentenced to Mississippi's Parchman penitentiary, for a period of three years, for a forgery conviction. Gladys and Elvis went on welfare during this period of time.
1943 - Jessi Colter singer, songwriter born "Mirriam Johnson," in Phoenix, Arizona. Married to Duane Eddy 1961~1968. Married Waylon Jennings in 1969.
1946 - Gene Autry's "I Wish I Had Never Met Sunshine" charted.
1949 - Don Cook record label owner, songwriter, publishing executive and producer, was born in San Antonio, Texas.
1951 - Marty Robbins hosted "Chuckwagon Time" on KPHO, in Phoenix, Arizona (1948-1951). KPHO was then managed by former Grand Ole Opry manager and WSM executive Harry Stone. Following a recommendation from Little Jimmy Dickens, Columbia Records A & R man Art Satherley traveled from Los Angeles, to Phoenix, and watched Marty do his radio show. Art was impressed with the young singer, and Marty Robbins was signed by Satherley to a Columbia recording contract on this date.
1955 - The Louvin Brothers recorded "When I Stopped Dreaming."
1959 - Marty Robbins released "Cap And Gown" b/w "Last Night About This Time."
