Book Description
With country music as popular as ever-what other form of music has been honored on an official state quarter? Country Music's Most Wanted hits the stage to bring you tales of country music's famous and infamous.
Alan Jackson delivered mail to Hee Haw before he made it big. Garth Brooks was booed off the stage during an eleventh-grade talent show. Kris Kristofferson landed a borrowed helicopter on Johnny Cash's lawn so he could pitch Cash a song. You'll read about Vernon Dalhart, Kenny Chesney, Hank Williams, The Dixie Chicks, Tim McGraw, the Carters, the Cashes, the Webbs, and so many more artists of yesterday and today. With more than fifty lists, Country Music's Most Wanted gives you those stories and people, plus fun discussions of the best train songs, phone call songs, humorous songs, and tequila songs (you provide the salt and limes).
Country music's vibrant past, successful present, and bright future are all represented in this humorous look at the stars and legends of Music City. From the first million-selling record in 1924 to the songs you heard on the radio last night, Country Music's Most Wanted has a tractor-full of fun country music trivia!
