I blundered across this tonight, and thought it too good not to pass on.
I have admitted before that I have a sorta “school boy” crush on Patsy Cline.
Now of the men who sang Country, the race tightens quite a bit.
Now here we got Johnny Cash, Waylon and George Jones, many more! Who in the heck can choose a standout among these great singers?
I will not attempt it. But Conway can definitely get me singing as loud as anybody! “It’s Only Make Believe” rivals the best of them all.

Patsy stood in a class by herself. Of the men who sang Country, the question is harder.
I love Conway as much as anyone!

Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.

What a legend this man is! Working in Hemphill, Texas in the mid 70s I ate in Twitty's Restaurant nearly every day for the few weeks that I was there. In the foyer there was a huge portrait of Conway.

Said he looked at a map and saw Conway, Arkansas and Twitty, Texas and came up with his stage name.

Love his music. Old style, classic country. He was very good.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

My Dad took me to a Conway and Loretta concert when I was a boy. He loved Conway and had some 8 track tapes he played over and over while we worked on his rental houses.
