Out of all the years of studying Country Music and the people involved and the places I firmly believe there are three fundamental pillars of it all, those being the Songwriter the Producer and the Steel Guitarist. Without one or two those three you have a flop and with ALL THREE you have an album like &#8216;Red Headed Stranger&#8221; which in my opinion was the greatest Country Music Album EVER recorded in history.<\/p>\n<p>This man Wayne Kemp was no exception. He began his career at only sixteen playing lead guitar for people and in 1965 he became a Jones Boy joining the backup band for George Jones. He also went on to play for Patsy Cline Red Sovine and Conway Twitty.<\/p>\n<p>In 1968 Conway recorded &#8220;The Image Of Me&#8221; and that ignited the fire that became Wayne Kemp as he and Billy Sherill and Others like Billy Don Burns shaped the ever popular &#8220;Outlaw Movement&#8221; of the 1970&#8217;s. The Conway album that started his success was &#8220;To See My Angel Cry\/Thats When She Started To Stop Loving You&#8221; in 1970. It hit the top 5 and again hit the top 20 when Jack Greene recorded it. Conway Twitty went on to record &#8220;Darling You Know I Wuoldn&#8217;t Lie&#8221; and &#8220;Next In line&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>In 1976 he hit a number one when Johnny Cash recorded &#8220;One Piece At A Time&#8221;, a hilarious song about a factory worker that stole parts to build a misfit car. He struck top ten again in 1977 when another former Jones Boy Johnny Paycheck recorded his song &#8220;I&#8217;m The Only Hell That Momma Ever Raised&#8221; and it was released on his album &#8220;slide Off Of Your Satin Sheets&#8221;. In 1985 George Strait took his song &#8216;The Fireman&#8221; over the top 5 and it has become a staple song in George&#8217;s set for all these years. Self admittedly it&#8217;s one of George Strait&#8217;s favorite songs he has ever recorded. One of his first cuts &#8220;Love Bug&#8221; was a top 10 single TWICE by George Jones&#8230;and Strait.<\/p>\n<p>In 1999 he was gracefully inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall Of Fame. His highest peaking self single was &#8220;Honky Tonk Wine&#8221; which hit number 17. He was dubbed by George Jones as the &#8220;King of Tear In My Beer Songs&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>He recorded 3 of his own albums for Decca and MCA respectfully and released 24 singles in his career. And honestly his songs are dead ringers for the male gender with songs like &#8220;She Only Meant To Use Him&#8221; and &#8220;Red Neck And Over Thirty&#8221; which he wrote with Bobby Rice.<\/p>\n<p>Visitation will be held at Anderson &amp; Son &#8211; Lafayette (997 Hwy. 52 Bypass, East Lafayette, TN 37083 \/ 615-666-4011) on Thursday, March 12, from 10:00 a.m. to 1:45 p.m. with burial\/graveside service to follow at 2:00 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This morning the Nashville Songwriters Hall Of Fame and several other outlets reported the death of Country Music Songwriting Legend Wayne Kemp on Monday.
