Hi I work for the Oxford American magazine and I’m interested in Jerry Inman’s music. I know that he is best known for his record of Beatles bluegrass covers. However I’m having trouble locating any biographical information for Mr. Inman. If anyone knows anything about him or could put me in touch with someone who might, please email me: editorial8@oxfordamerican.org

Thanks for your help !

Paul mentioned Narvel Felts in part 2 of the 70’s songs, “Reconsider Me”. Does anyone remember, “Somebody Hold Me, Until She Passes By” by Narvel?. I very seldom hear that one anymore. True Country 100% and it gives me chills.

I totally agree on Con Hunley. That is one hot hunk of a man and that voice – ooh yeah. I don’t know why he didn’t make it big in country music, he was good as they come.

I enjoy these articles Paul, but I’m still not biting on 70’s country. Many of the songs you list are very good, but apart from the great artists like The Hag, Waylon, and George Jones the other stuff just doesn’t grab me. Its obvious you love this decade of country music and sharing these songs you consider “hidden gems” with 9513 readers. Its probably just as well you didn’t pick the 60’s and the list would be unmanagably large…

Oh, and I remember ‘Take A Letter, Maria’ too.

I’ve been listening to these songs, but the only one I am familiar with is the George Jones track. Thanks again for schooling me.
