Got into the arena just in time to hear the announcer say, “and that, ladies and gentlemen, was Randy Travis”. So I got to see Conway, and I was truly impressed. More than I expected. I did get to see Randy other times, but that was my only time seeing Conway Twitty. A legend. So good. 💜

More Oklahoma trivia. Conway lived in Moore, Oklahoma for a couple of years. His real name was Harold Jenkins - he was never married to Loretta. One of his daughters, Joni Jenkins went to my Junior High and I was in her music class in 7th grade. We all had to sing a solo a cappella, if you couldn't play an instrument. Of course, Joni played the guitar and sang. I won't tell you how my solo went. I'm still traumatized. They moved back to Nashville and they came back to Oklahoma when Joni was in High School but they moved to Norman at that point. Just so you know, I am not claiming to be her friend. We just had a few classes together.

Another great Conway Twitty song is "You've Never Been This Far Before." And I second those who recommend the Conway-Loretta duet "Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man" and the Conway solo "Hello, Darlin'" -- they're great! By the way, I believe Conway Twitty picked both his first and last names from a roadmap. As mentioned elsewhere, his real name was Harold Jenkins.
@deannasisson57513 жыл бұрын
The way I heard it, Harold Jenkins threw darts at a map on the dart board. One landed on Conway, Arkansas and the other on Twitty, Texas. Those darts could have landed anywhere, but he chose to be called Conway, not Twitty, and the rest is history. Do you know how T.G. Shepard got his name? He was told to think up a name by his manager, because they couldn't use his real name. He rolled his eyes, paced the floor awhile and looked out into the parking lot and saw 'The German Shepard', and the rest of that is history. But that's all the name origins I know. Enjoy his songs, too. He is real good!

Conway Twitty was born Harold Jenkins in Mississippi. He started out as a rock singer (the musical "Bye Bye Birdie" had the character "Conrad Birdie" based on Twitty) with the hit "It's Only Make Believe" in 1958. He later switched to country and hit with songs such as his first #1 country hit with "Next in Line" in 1968. In the 70s he had hits with "Hello Darlin'", "Fifteen Years Ago", "You've Never Been This Far Before" and duets with Loretta, "Lead Me On", "After the Fire is Gone", "Louisiana Woman/Mississippi Man" and "Feelins".

Loretta and Conway used to sing different duets together. Each of them were married to different people, but there was always speculation because they sang so well together . They had several good duets together, but my favorite is. LOUISIANA WOMAN, MISSISSIPPI MAN. Loretta‘s twang came from being raised in Kentucky. Dolly was from Tennessee. Patsy Cline was from Virginia. Bobby Joe Gentry was from Mississippi and so was Tammy Wynette. All of them were singing in the 60s except for Bobby Joe gentry. She didn’t come out until the 70s. She’s the one that sang Ode to Billy Joe,😮 it’s about the guy jumping off the Tallahatchee Bridge.. The instrument that you were talking about where you sit and play is a steel guitar. It’s a very cool instrument. It has a great sound! Another tidbit on Conway and Loretta - in 1993, both Loretta‘s husband Mooney and Conway were in critical condition in the hospital. She went between both of their rooms. Conway died then and when Loretta got back to his room, she said he was still warm. Her husband survived that time, but died three years later.

Loretta was a spitfire for sure. She taught herself to write songs, play the guitar and sing. At the time she was married and a teenager with several kids and very very poor. Her husband was kind blah blah about her doing this as long as she still kept the house up, took care of the kids and put dinner on the table. He always liked her singing but didn't think it would go anywhere. But once she got noticed he was her biggest fan and promotor. Once Loretta started up she hooked up with Patsy Cline who showed her the ropes and introduced her to many in the music industry. She and Conway were never a thing. If you like this you have got to listen to her singing "Coal Miner's Daughter"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Conway Twitty was most widely known as a country artist but he had success in the rock and pop genres as well. He wasn't born here but he made Oklahoma City his home during most of his recording career, from 1963 to 1972. He also lived in Norman, Oklahoma. He performed at the Diamond Ballroom after its opening in 1964. He had a chain of restaurants and he opened one of his Twitty Burger restaurants at 7200 S. Western Avenue, in Oklahoma City. My step-dad knew him through work. Although he was never starstruck you could tell that he was pleased that he knew him personally., since he was also a fan. (*Disclosure: I was just a kid then and couldn't remember the dates and such, so I pulled some info from Wikipedia.)

When Loretta started out, her first partner was a bass singer named Ernie Tubb, who had been in Country for about a decade by himself. He had hits with 'I Could Waltz across Texas with You', 'Thanks a Lot', and a bunch more. Together they did 'Mr & Mrs Use To Be' and a ton more. I don't know if they only stopped being singing partners because of his death, or they stopped so she could tour as a solo artist. Don't know if I even knew at the time. But a few years later, the way I heard it, Conway and Loretta were clowning around in a studio together. He'd liked her tunes and she liked his stuff, when he left Sun Label (same place as Elvis, Johnny Cash, Charlie Rich, Roy Orbison and so many others) and became a Country artist. I want to think she did him a favor, because she was passing Ernie Tubb's favor on down the road, and took him under her wing, the way their elder did with her, teaching him the ropes. However they got together, they had a good string of wonderful hits, just like she and her mentor did. I really don't think you can beat either couple for good songs. Especially, in this day and age! I know I bad mouth this new stuff they want to call new Country a lot, but before I am done with the 2 of you, you will know the difference between today's music, the 1980's Country and the good stuff from before the '70's. By the way, this duet song has always been my favorite of theirs. God bless you and keep you strong!

Loretta has so many great songs. You should try “Fist City” sometime.

Conway is a legend. "Hello Darlin" is his most recognizable hit. "Only Make Believe" is more of an oldie do-wop kind of song that's great. And "That's My Job" is a song that'll pull on your heart strings in a good way. He has many more great hit songs though.

Y'all took me back to going fishing with my Dad listening to Conway on an 8 track tape player in his Chevy pickup. You got to play Hello Darlin'. The growl in this mans voice had the women swooning and men saying Dang! I wish I sounded like that. Also 15 Years Ago, This Time I've Hurt You More... , Linda on My Mind and another one with Loretta After the Fire is Gone.

“Hello Darlin’” is one-off my favorites!

It isn't a single song but a documentary on how rock-n-roll was shaped by Alabama. The documentary of Muscle Shoals is amazing on how a little music studio in northwest Alabama shaped rock-n-roll and also launched Southern Rock as a new genre. I knew nothing about our influence, I was raised in Alabama, but it is beyond significant. Enjoy your joy and thanks for sharing.

Hope you dive into Conway more. 💕 He had a ton of hits. My favorite is “That’s my job.” Very touching and I believe It will pull at your heart strings. (Makes you appreciate your loved ones so much).

Slow Hand & Love to Lay you Down. I love Conway so much I actually go to a legacy show when I go to Tennessee. They are fire songs

Country music is my favorite and how I discovered you guys! Would love to see more Country be done going forward, disappointing to hear that you've had issues with the genre in the past. Some suggestions I have are: "Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man" by Loretta and Conway "Don't Come Home A Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your Mind)" by Loretta "Hello Darlin'" by Conway is a must "Welcome To New England" by Reba McEntire "Unwound" by George Strait "When I Call Your Name" by Vince Gill and you've gotta do Patty Loveless at some point. Anything from her would be good but sticking with her earlier 80s hits check out "Chains", "I'm That Kind of Girl", and "Timber, I'm Falling In Love",

Yes Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man is a must by them! ♥️ Conway Twitty is legendary! There are Dolly and Kenny, Loretta and Conway and Tammy Wynette and George Jones! The last two were married for a time and had a rollercoaster relationship! All created some of the best country duets ever!
