Remarking on the current state of African-Americans in country music, Pride tells CMT, “ItÂ’s pitiful to have to still be talking that way in 2003, but Â… I think itÂ’s got to come down to a collective body of Americans. ThereÂ’s still an imbalance, and when I heard that CMT was doing this documentary, I thought, ‘Well, itÂ’s about time.Â’ ThereÂ’s segregation in country music. http://www.cmt.com/shows/dyn/waiting_in_the_wings/series_about_special.jhtml   (440 words)      Gordon Lightfoot Beautiful -- Recommendations and Resources He was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 1986, the Canadian Country Music Hall Of Fame in 2001, and in May 2003 was made a Companion of the Order of Canada, the country's highest honour.

Atkins flew to Los Angeles to play the sides to top label executives and had their agreement to sign the remarkable voice before he revealed PrideÂ’s color; his first RCA recording session took place in August 1965 and his first single, “Snakes Crawl at Night,” was released in January 1966. With a gritty, southern-accented baritone voice, Pride was able during his remarkably long-lived hit-making heyday (1966–1989) to drive even entirely forgettable songs into the Top Ten, if not the #1 position. http://www.countrymusichalloffame.com/inductees/charley_pride.html   (761 words)      Archie Campbell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia He left that station for rival WROL where he helped start Knoxville's first country music television show (on WROL-TV), "Country Playhouse" that premiered in 1952 and ran until 1958. Shortly after, he signed a contract with RCA Victor and one of his early singles, "Trouble in the Amen Corner" reached the 1960 Country music Top 25. Archie Campbell (born November 7, 1914 in Bulls Gap, Tennessee, died August 29, 1987 in Knoxville, Tennessee) was a writer and star of Hee Haw, a popular long-running country-flavored television variety show. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archie_Campbell   (418 words)      History of Argentine Rock Although many local rock journalists insist upon considering Argentine rock music as a single genre, nothing produced in the last 20 years (with some obvious few exceptions) matches with the great music played during 1966 to 1977. Rock music in Argentina, as in every other country, was not precisely the establishment’s delight. Although rock music in Argentina later achieved a success that nobody expected when the whole thing started, we feel that what happened afterwards is of no interest for the international collectors to whom this book is actually dedicated. http://tinpan.fortunecity.com/waterloo/728/magicland/histarg.html   (1536 words)      Guardian John Lanchbery He was also associated with Ashton in adapting Mendelssohn's music for The Dream (1964), orchestrating Satie piano music for Monotones (1966), and reworking an assortment of Chopin pieces for A Month In The Country (1976), all of which were copyright to Lanchbery and became a useful source of income. Lanchbery was then asked to rewrite the 1869 Minkus music when Rudolf Nureyev made a new version of Don Quixote in 1966 - "cleaning it up a bit," as he put it; he spring-cleaned more Minkus for Natalia Makarova's production of La Bayadère, initially for American Ballet Theatre in 1980. Lanchbery made some fine recordings of complete ballets, including the three Tchaikovskys with the Philarmonia Orchestra, and he composed a variety of incidental music for television, radio and films, including The Tales Of Beatrix Potter (1971) and The Turning Point (1977). http://www.guardian.co.uk/print/0,3858,4615277-111261,00.html   (1536 words)      Montana Slim by Wilf Carter Montana Slim was created for folk revivalists and fans of early country music rather than the country charts, and is rooted in the sensibilities of an earlier era. Wilf Carter made some overtly commercial music in the '50s but otherwise devoted his long career to traditional folk, cowboy songs, and old fashioned country music. Montana Slim, Carter's second Starday album from 1966, is an unrehearsed set of 12 songs that would be characterized as "old timey" today, performed with minimal accompaniment and no drums. http://www.mp3.com/albums/214205/summary.html   (1536 words)      Eddy Arnold - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Arnold has been honored with induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame (in 1966), voted Entertainer Of The Year and received the Pioneer Award.
