Well folks you know I been working HARD these past few weeks for so many people
\nand I’m STILL busting my hump for Outlaw Fest<\/a>. Do I even need to keep
\nadding links for this event…YES! We NEED your support to support our community
\nand our artists. Think of how many hotels and restaurants and other businesses that will benefit
\nfrom this event.<\/p>\n

Several years ago there was this internet radio station program called Musictogousa
\nran by a great man named Bert Gagnon. And during this program in the chat room
\nI met this man R.C.Oleary.
\nHe was a funny individual and had many stories and I remember I enjoyed logging on to see
\nif he was there along with many others.
\nI met so many great people on that radio show and it was where my website ideas were still
\njust brewing and I was busy getting my skills sharp for the coming storm that is
\nGaryhayescountry.com.
\nI remember many night admiring Florabama Waltz and I often requested that song.<\/p>\n

This was us enjoying a Wayne Mills gathering we had in Nashville with our
\nfriend Tanna Taft.<\/p>\n

Just like the Billie Gant article I will most likely continuously add to this article too.
\nI learn so much more things about him all the time. I’m going to include his bio from one
\nof his media outlets and add some of my own.
\nThis will be one of three albums that will be released during the festival along with
\nBillie Gant and Brandon Attwell that are both separate articles respectively.<\/p>\n

This album is his fourth album to his credit and I’ll tell you his other albums:<\/p>\n

Nantucket Rainbow (original Folklore)
\nFirst Takes (Country)
\nCoffeehouse Chronicles (Country)
\nTuneshander (Country)<\/p>\n

He has had 10 chart singles and one song in a major movie.
\nI will include this BIO from his media page.
\nI found a pair of drum stick’s and a set of old drum’s at a local American Red Cross Center
\nin a small town outside the military base where I was stationed in France and began Beating
\non them over the week’s to come until I could make some sense out of different rhythm’s,
\nI then took myself to the Service Club on base and began sitting in with the player’s that
\nwould Jam everyday after work and got to where I could handle most every kind of
\nmusic they played. Not being satisfied with just drumming I bought an old
\nacoustic guitar from a friend leaving for the States (Marvin Manley) and began
\nwhat was a trial and error situation re: chord’s-progression’s etc!!
\nTHEN, I met a couple of young guy’s that would come play and practice guitar together at
\nthe Service Club and asked if they would help me learn chord’s and one of them
\nagreed to help. One of the guy’s went on to a military career Mr. Doug Land
\n(fantastic guitar player at age 15) . The other young man age 15 was none other
\nthan Jerry Corbitt the future Co-Founder of ‘ THE YOUNGBLOODS ‘ with Jesse Colin
\nYoung, and also Co-Founder with Charlie Daniels of the ‘ CORBITT-DANIELS BAND.<\/p>\n

Jerry worked with me on chord’s, rhythm’s and whatever else I could handle at
\nthe time musically to this day we have stayed good friends the rest is history
\nfor all concerned. .. I began playing drum’s for local band’s when I
\nreturned to the states from Europe and also playing some of the Coffee Houses
\nand Folk rooms in and around the Boston area, then ended up going to the WWVA
\nJamboree with Doug LaValley and Jean Marie and stayed there playing for the
\nJamboree act’s throughout the USA then Nashville called and I went on the road
\nthere with Up and Coming Band’s. (I must say this about that) if it hadn’t been
\nfor my second ‘MOM’ Tootsie Bess owner of Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge I never could
\nhave had the opportunity to stay until I connected with a solid GIG as she
\nallowed me to run an OPEN TAB on beverage and food (of which I alway’s paid) by
\nworking Linebaugh’s Restraunt waiting table’s and to keep a roof over my head,
\nthen one day,, my dear (Late) friend of 42 year’s Charlie Garner told his boss
\nabout me being a drummer and SLEEPY LABEEF came to Linebaugh’s and asked me to
\nplay drum’s for him. I worked on and off with this Legendary Rockabilly for
\nnearly 40 year’s and would still be with him today if not for raising my now 16
\nyear old son.<\/p>\n

I signed with BMI Nashville in 1976 while an
\naffiliate writer with Warner Bros.(Nash.) Co-Writing with the (late great)
\nSinger\/Songwriter ‘Handsome’ Harlan Sanders. We went on to write many song’s
\nthat were recorded over the years by various Artist’s of which were well
\naccepted by fan’s, listener’s, and radio station’s across the USA\/Canada and
\naround the world.
\nHarlan passed away a few year’s ago (August 29, 2003)
\nleaving a large void in my life, as well as being Co-Writer he was my Best
\nFriend, and Best Man when my wife and I were married in 1972, he loved my
\nlittle son P.J. and P.J. loved him, we all miss him very much.<\/p>\n

I formed SCRIMSHAW RECORDS in 1979 and my publishing
\ncompany SCRIMSHAW MUSIC BMI in 1980 for the reason of having a Record Label and
\nPublishing company at my disposal so I could Catalog and Protect my own song’s,
\nRecord and Release whomever and whatever I wished, whenever I chose, allowing
\nme not to have to (KISS) some record company owner’s backside to do so.<\/p>\n

I recorded Nationally for COUNTRY SHOWCASE AMERICA
\nRECORDS (CSA) Md. receiving many Great Review’s\/Triple Pick’s to Hit from the
\nnow defunct Review Process of RECORD WORLD\/BILLBOARD and CASH BOX covering
\nCanada\/USA and the world, and of course on my own label SCRIMSHAW RECORDS . I
\nhave recently become associated with WILDCAT RECORDS based in Massena, NY &
\nNYC and will be releasing product through them in the near future .
\nI’ve Produced\/Arranged two Album’s on SCRIMSHAW
\nRECORDS for a talented, lovely Lady from New England by the name of ‘SHARMAN’
\nrecorded here in Nasville at Bayou Recording Studio engineered by the GREAT Mr.
\nGeorge Clinton which went on to receive numerous Rave Review’s from Fan’s\/Radio
\nand Press. Artist’s that have recorded on SCRIMSHAW RECORDS are: GRIZZLY DAVE
\n— SHARMAN — AMARILLO — JIMMY PARKER (Party Of One) written by: (the late)
\nHarlan Sanders, this song was one of the the most played, longest running songs on
\nradio in the New England area,, it is still being played today, and of course
\nmyself !! Chat y’all later ,,,,, STAY IN TUNE ,,,,, R.C<\/p>\n
