Book excerpt: As Eagles Soar is a romantic historical fiction account of a remarkable woman. Lizzie LaBeau was born into a wealthy family in the Montgomery, Alabama, area in 1880. Her mother dies when she is a small child, and her father tries to compensate by giving Lizzie the best of everything. Her best friend for life, Clara, the daughter of former slaves, was born the same day as Lizzie. The two become inseparable, getting themselves into numerous comical predicaments. Lizzie is a gifted child, beautiful, talented, and full of life. She grows up to become a nurse, serving in both world wars. She meets many famous people along the way, including Ty Cobb, Carole Lombard, Hank Williams, Martin Luther King, Orville and Wilbur Wright, and Andy Devine, as well as numerous Alabama politicians and governors. Along with her many adventures, Lizzie falls in love with two wonderful men and meets Emma, another lifelong friend. As she nears the end of her life, she sits in a nursing home and tells her remarkable life story to a Montgomery reporter. This story embellishes the many amazing accomplishments of women throughout America during these transitional years and is based loosely on the lives of four actual women. The story covers the years 1880 through 1969, with brief glimpses back into the Creek Indian Wars and the War Between the States. Lizzie has a lifetime struggle with religion, racism, elitism, disappointing love affairs, death, war, women’s suffrage, and the change from horse and buggy to men landing on the moon. Indeed, Lizzie LaBeau lived a full life, and the reader will have a greater appreciation for what women like her have accomplished over the years. And the final chapter will tug at your heartstrings.

Download or read book The Starday Story written by Nathan D. Gibson and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2011-06-30 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Association of Recorded Sound Collections Awards for Excellence Best Research in Record Labels–Certificate of Merit (2012) The Starday Story: The House That Country Music Built is the first book entirely dedicated to one of the most influential music labels of the twentieth century. In addition to creating the largest bluegrass catalogue throughout the 1950s and '60s, Starday was also known for its legendary rockabilly catalogue, an extensive Texas honky-tonk outpouring, classic gospel and sacred recordings, and as a Nashville independent powerhouse studio and label. Written with label president and co-founder Don Pierce, this book traces the label's origins in 1953 through the 1968 Starday-King merger. Interviews with artists and their families, employees, and Pierce contribute to the stories behind famous hit songs, including "Y'all Come," "A Satisfied Mind," "Why Baby Why," "Giddy-up Go," "Alabam," and many others. Gibson's research and interviews also shed new light on the musical careers of George Jones, Arlie Duff, Willie Nelson, Roger Miller, the Stanley Brothers, Cowboy Copas, Red Sovine, and countless other Starday artists. Conversations with the children of Pappy Daily and Jack Starns provide a unique perspective on the early days of Starday, and extensive interviews with Pierce offer an insider glance at the country music industry during its golden era. Weathering through the storm of rock and roll and, later, the Nashville Sound, Starday was a home to traditional country musicians and became one of the most successful independent labels in American history. Ultimately, The Starday Story is the definitive record of a country music label that played an integral role in preserving our nation's musical heritage.

Download or read book Just Jack written by Charlene Campbell and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I will always have great memories of Jack Campbell. The first song we ever recorded of his was titled Jesus.' It became the Rambos first number-one radio song. We enjoyed recording many others, such as Oh What a Happy Day' and March Around The Throne.' Jack was a great songwriter and a fine Christian gentleman." Buck Rambo Jack Campbell was the creator of the nation's number one southern gospel song for seven consecutive weeks in 2012: "I Know a Man Who Can," as recorded by Greater Vision. Jack was the seventh son in a poverty-stricken rural Swifton, Arkansas, family. His childhood years during the Depression Era were characterized by tragedy, isolation, poverty, and "Hand-Me-Downs." As an orphan, Jack thought he was in a suburb of Heaven when his brother, Bill, moved Jack and his own family to Gideon, in the bootheel of Missouri. Bill would pastor the Assembly of God Church while raising Jack as if he were his own son, rather than as his younger brother. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, gospel radio was filled with his music. Many of the industry's top artists, including the Rambos, the Inspirations, the Speer Family, the Kingsmen Quartet, and soloist, Governor Jimmie Davis, filled their albums with Jack Campbell's music. More recently, country legend George Jones recorded "I Know a Man Who Can." In his forty-plus years of traveling, he mentored over forty-five teens and young adults. His son, Chris, a great bass guitar player and songwriter, would go on to play for the Happy Goodman Family. A young Gene McDonald, the great bass singer of the Florida Boys (and the Gaithers), would spend time as a part of the Ambassadors, singing tenor. Gary O'Neal, The Absolutely Gospel Website
