Tammy Wynette- The First Lady

DSCN3690This was 80 cents.  If you have been paying attention, the grand total for the last four days has been $2.00.  That’s how you survive the downturn, baby. On a personal note, between working late, hockey three nights a week, people dying, and computer problems at the casa, I have been burning the midnight oil pretty hard.  Let’s see how quick I can get this post out of here.wynette_tammy_image01Tammy’s Webpage

Aptly named for The First Lady of Country Music”, Tammy Wynette was female country.  Along with Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton, she even more so defined what it was to be a country singer.  She charted 23 #1 hits during her career which apparently is not over despite her death in 1998.  She is getting the hologram treatment starting with a show in Nashville in 2016.  Is this the future of music? I mean, will living people just send out a hologram on tour?1393974430000-ASP-Rubenstein-Tammy-Wynette

Story about Hologram Tammy

This was Tammy’s eight album and it was released in 1970, the third studio album she released that year. It went to # 2 on the US Country charts.  “Run, Woman, Run” went to #1 on the country single’s.  The album is ok.  The songs are good. The liner notes, on the other hand, are terrible.  I gave up after 5 minutes of trying to read them.

The best song in my opinion is “Safe In These Lovin’ Arms of Mine”.  However, I like the song “Sally Trash” on title and principle alone.  Poor old Sally.  She probably gets a bad rap.  Maybe she is a nice girl deep down. She must have some redeeming qualities.maxresdefault

Satisfactory record.  Can not wait until weekend for rest.
