This is a sneak peek at an illustration I did in collaboration with Bobby Braddock in our new book Country Music's Greatest Lines. Just this week we have had interviews and articles in Nashville Scene and Rolling Stone, plus an article in Billboard about Bobby's song He Stopped Loving Her Today, recognized as the most honored country song of all time.
Amazon has sold out a couple of times, but books are available there again, also at arcadiapublishing.com, barnesandnoble.com, and your local bookstore.
Here are some blurbs about our book:
“One of country music’s greatest songwriters has given us his own private tour of the collective genius of his profession. I read his book, then I realized how much wonderful music I’ve missed.”
-Malcolm Gladwell, best-selling author and host of the Revisionist History podcast
“This is the best book about songs and songwriters I’ve ever read. Bobby Braddock lived the history he writes about, which is really what makes this so compelling.”
-Bart Herbison, Executive Director, Nashville Songwriters Association International
“Braddock and Beecher evoke the mythology of country without sentimentalizing the music or its creators. It’s a remarkable achievement...It also sent me to a dozen records I wanted to hear immediately.”
Edd Hurt, Nashville Scene
“A firsthand witness to some of Nashville’s most iconic songwriting moments.”
-Rolling Stone
