Silver Eagle #78
Aired 1983-01-08

Commercial quality.

There are a few George Jones songs that the Silver Eagle appears to have added
from The Paradise Club in Boston from 1982-03-16 to fill up the alotted time.

For anyone who does not know, Ron Gaddis, who sings Merle Haggard's parts with Jones and also the Jones Boys,
was Lorrie Morgan's first husband. Many years later, Jones fired him for drinking too much. Hmmm.

I'd never really heard of Gary Stewart until I came across him on a Gilley's show.
He was a singer/songwriter and he was paired with Dean Dillon and recorded 2 albums, but it looks
like the second recording was only partially released. It is stated on this recording that
they recorded 10 songs, but only 6 were released on a mini-LP "Those Were The Days."
He was dubbed "The King of the Honly Tonks." Bob Dylan is a fan of his song "Ten Years Of This"
and Alan Jackson is a fan of Stewart's music in general.

From vinyl, recorded with Soundforge. De-clicked, saved to WAV,
converted to FLAC level 8 with Trader's Little Helper.
