I wouldn`t be surprised. Charlie is a great country singer. When I hear
his name, "Kiss a Devil Good Morning" pops into mind. Ray Price mostly
owns "For the Good Times." Ray still lives in Texas, rides motorcycles,
and has taken up comedy, I suppose, to enlarge his act.

The good old days as we say, back when the radio stations played non-stop
music and the all the girls wore skirts and us guys wore jean and white
T-shirt. It's fun but but I remember when the we use to get these radio
maps of the world with all the stations listed on them. And as you say they
listed the power day/night and most of them only played music no advertising
at all. I use to listen to this rock and roll station out of Buffalo called
WKBW 960 khz and all they played was rock and roll. American Band Stand with
Dave Clark, I suppose this is dating me know. On my last trip back that way
I heard the station ID on the FM dial instead of AM and they still played
the old rock and roll from the fifty and sixies.
Talking about cournty and western station in Texas, well I use run truck
loads of red cedar to this place in Grande Pairie Texas, right between Fort
Worth and Dallis and I would listen to this am station from Amarillo. Could
pick it up just outside of Dallas while running up US 287/87 to Denver then
shortly outside of Denver I would loose it. The loneliest section of road
for radio station is Montana you just don't pick up much at all even on Am.
And Fm is usless in most places except around big cities.
The last Freightliner I had I put the satelite radio in it and had radio
everywhere then and lots to choose from too. Even had my Icom IC-706 in it
as well.
