I had the pleasure of sharing a meal with Charlie Daniels in 1997. There was limited seating in the Varsity in Atlanta downtown, so he invited me to sit with him. We talked for well over an hour, and I was thoroughly impressed with his demeanor and the way he made me feel at home. RIP, Mr Daniels.
Grandpa Jones died on February 19 1998 which was my 32nd birthday. Mr Jones gave me much pleasure while watching The Grand Ole Opry on The Nashville Network. I wish I had the vocabulary to state how much I miss those days of watching The Opry on TNN. TO me, it made Saturday night. Then on Sunday it was time to watch Dale Earnhardt. Miss those days indeed.
Very nice video of great country stars. They were all amazing.my sister Trudy really loved that music before me and got me hooked..thanks for showing them together.
I worked US shows in Germany as security for several artist, Charlie being one of the best! Your time to do this video was an emotional walk down memory lane. Thank you💜
To bad Conway Twitty didn’t heed the warning his body was giving him. He didn’t know he had an undetected Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm that was leaking his blood into his abdominal cavity. He complained to his wife of discomfort in his stomach area. He was in Missouri and was traveling back to Nashville but told his wife he could wait till they got back to Tennessee. By the time he got there, he was bleeding out inside his body and eventually died. Most people never know they have an aneurysm until it’s to late. My Urologist accidentally found mine in 2003 and was eventually repaired in 2011. I’m 80yo now and my repair job is still perfect at my last checkup in August 2023. George C Scott never knew he had one, neither did the brilliant Albert Einstein and died because of it.
Another terrific program. Thank you for your work. With that said. A Grand Ole Opry program must start and finish with the King of Country Music. Mr. Acuff. He is the only person in The Grand Ole Opry and The Country Music Hall of Fame that you refer to as "Mr". Thank you
When I worked at Hard Tock in Tampa Charlie and his wife came once a year for their charity event, Angelus Charity. They both were the sweetest people around. I always had nice conversations with them. Just down to Earth people.
Visited George at his home in Enterprise, Ala. I was with the BlueRidge at the time and our piano players brother Steve Bowers was George’s drummer. We got to play several West coast venues with George.
Charlie Daniels also was in an UPS racing commercial trying to get former Nascar driver Dale Jarrett to drivr the delivery truck in a nascar race.Johnny Cash shared something with Dale Earnhardt Sr.,called the man in black.
Hey, as Earnest Tubb once said, I don't mind ya callin me a hillbilly, but ya better smile when ya say it. 😉 I'm a hillbilly through and through, and proud of it! Yeah, people think we're dumb, uneducated or ignorant, but that false assumption always comes back to bite them in the posterior! 😂😂😂👍
Thank you for making & posting a super-excellent video. Have seen Charlie Daniels grave in Mt Juliet...(will be visiting Nashville and want to visit Grandpa Jones', Johnny Cashs', Kitty Wells graves, along with Stringbeans' & Ernest Tubbs). Video will help to find them...thanks again!!
@BackRoads1 some info for you- Stringbean, a member of the Grand old Opry and castmember of Hee-Haw, is buried with his wife down the road (so-to-speak) at Forest Lawn Memorial Gardens near Lutons Methodist church; Ernest Tubb & his wife are buried at Hermitage Memorial Gardens off Lebanon Pk (U.S.Hwy70) in Hermitage, just west of MtJuliet
Great video but reading off the cards don’t sound too natural on here but thank you for sharing this for those of us who will not get to visit these great people
A lot are buried in the same cemetery. No more than 30 mins apart if they aren’t already together. If you need any tips feel free to email me and I’ll help the best I can.
@@BackRoads1 thank you I wanna go to Graceland for sure and hit up some cemeteries while I'm down there. Any suggestions on the best one to go to or should I hit a few if time allows me. I'm from Baltimore so I'm not familiar with Tennessee at all, plan on coming down maybe around Spring of 2023
Conway Twitty got his stage name by yhrowing darts at the map. That is what he told a tv host while sitting next to George Jones, and it was a joke between the 2 and then with the fans.
conway was my fave singer, i had seen him countless times, when he was here in Md. it's discusting that he had no beautiful grave, yet alone a headstone/monument like alot of the country stars did, Dee claims he did not want that, I say bullsh*t he deserved to be laid to rest with the same glorious monument / headstone with his name Conway Twitty on it! what did he get., a vault in a wall and a plaque saying harold jenkins!!! so discusting
I agree 💯%, I am a MD. girl and I made sure I had tickets to see him. My parents treated me to tickets to see him on my tenth birthday. The show was amazing. I just had to see his show when he rolled in our town. I still listen to him today. I just love his music. Thanks for sharing this video, I plan to pay my respects to him after I move further south in the near future.
@@annwalker317 even if it wasn't what he wanted, he should have had a beautiful monument, with his name that we all knew him by, his wife evidently didn't give it a second thought!

Visited George at his home in Enterprise, Ala. I was with the BlueRidge at the time and our piano players brother Steve Bowers was George’s drummer. We got to play several West coast venues with George.
This is one of the reason I love doing this. The stories that y’all have of the people we get to visit are awesome. Thanks for watching!

Johnny cash died from complications due to diabetes

It broke my heart when I visited his resting place. He deserved so much better.

Why are all of the graves not pointing east ? Where I'm from all the graves face east so they can face Jesus on that great day.
Why are you showing all these graves where Conway is buried. It took forever for you to show Conway’s grave
This man walks to slow
Great job again
