This is the last episode that we will hear my good buddy Jim Vest on the mic, for now. Because of all this crap going on, he won't be able to continue the show. We have a great new co-host in Chris Wallin though with a fun new format where we integrated video as well as audio. ON THIS EPISODE we have the awesome songwriter, MARK SHERRILL. He has written songs for artist like John Anderson, Charlie Rich, and of course Blake Shelton. He wrote the song "Ol' Red" and now has many bars named after his song. What an honor. We chat about all that, how he's adjusting his writing style to fit the modern country era, and more. Thanks so much for tuning in! PLEASE: Subscribe, Follow, Rate & Review, Download & Share! Man, thats a lot of asking. If y'all do all that you're true fans. We love ya dearly and are grateful that you listen. Hope you enjoy!

These episodes that we're releasing at the moment were recorded before COVID so David wasn't sick with it in this episode. David Chamberlain is a well decorated songwriter that our very own Jim Vest got started in the business. I'm sure glad he did too because we would've missed out on some great songs if not. We talk about the IRS taking Davids song rights away sparked by an addiction, the days when movie stars and every artist would frequent Printers Alley, and even a murder on Printers Alley. There's some lighter hearted stuff here too like, fishing and whatnot. Thanks for listening! I'm truly grateful for our subscribers and regulars! If you havent already RATE & REVIEW (we're going to start mentioning certain reviewers on the show soon), SUBSCRIBE, & SHARE! Love yall to death! Some changes coming to the show format soon. We will have great video as well as audio and Marty's co-host has changed from Jim Vest to Chris Wallin due to COVID. We'll miss ya being on the show Jim.
