Cindy Walker

Yeah

... you know, it's, it's not exactly morbid, but it's definitely trying to pull on the, the heartstrings a little too, too tightly, you know? Cindy Walker wrote it.

Now, Cindy is a great songwriter, so.

And this is interesting to me-

It's about what still holds up after the trends disappear and after the waves show up, like what is remaining.

That year, the Country Music Hall of Fame inductees were legendary songwriters Harlan Howard and Cindy Walker and the musical icon Brenda Lee.

The common thread of this class isn't about a certain style or sound.

As I mentioned already, it's more about durability.

His philosophy behind the line, "Three chords and the truth," guided his career and influenced many other hits for many other stars in country music, and it also cemented him as the dean of Nashville songwriters.

Just fun fact, or for trivia one day, I'll say it again, Harlan Howard, three chords and the truth, the dean of Nashville songwriters.

All right, let's move on and talk about Cindy Walker for a second.

She came out of Texas and wrote with a level of control that's hard to teach.

And then not so known is...

So it's not a museum yet, but if you like old country Western music... you might know who Cindy Walker is.

And she was, in her time, a famous singer-songwriter.

And she lived in Mahea, and she wrote a lot of her music while she lived in Mahea.
