I'm headed to the HOF tomorrow and I'll pick up a copy -- sounds fascinating!!!!!!! Thanks for the tip. P. << Forgive the interruption, but if you happen to pick up a copy of the new edition of the Journal of Country Music (Tim McGraw on the cover), you may want to take a look at an article I wrote. The piece, "Almost Heaven," features a 70-year observation of Wheeling WV radio station WWVA and its Saturday evening Jamboree USA broadcasts. The article features interviews with many of the performers, past and present, on the Jamboree stage, including Brad Paisley, Doc Williams, Yodelin' Kenny Roberts, Mac Wiseman, Stompin' Tom Connors and Dusty Owens. It also features rare photographs and anecdotes, and lots of great memories. Hope you enjoy the article. Chuck Miller >>
