I didn't grow up on Country music. But in early 1985 I met and fell in love with Sharon Atkins. Her Mother, Chris, was a huge Country music fan and knew everything about it's history. Chris became a big influence in my life. She insisted that I give country music a chance. Country music was in the beginning stages of a new direction that was amazing. Anyway...there was a show on The Nashville Network called "You Can Be a Star" and she bugged the heck out of me about going on it. She finally wore me down and I gave her a cassette of 3 original songs to send them. Out of over 3000 entrants...I made it on the show. This was the first song I sang on it and I won that day's competition.
I'm pretty sure Chris is looking down from Heaven these days with a big smile on her face...because several of the people she used to watch on TNN and talk about are now my friends. Now that I think about it...she probably had quite a bit to do with that...on earth and from Heaven.
I wish I could remember the names of all the folks who performed on this track...and oh how I wish I still had the master 12 track so that I could remix it, etc. Sigh. I do remember that my good Friend Edgar Fernandez played keyboards and my buddy Kendall Dixon played drums on it.
