A must read for real country music fans and historians
Frankie Miller is best known for his 1959 hit “Blackland Farmer,” but his story goes far beyond one song. He shared stages, friendships, and backstage moments with some of the most recognizable names in country music.
Then, when a bigger spotlight was within reach, he stepped away and built a life rooted in family and home only to emerge thirty years later for a second act to an extraordinary career.

He's been one of my favorite artists and favorite people for a long, long time.
From his days at the Big D Jamboree, The Louisiana Hayride and the Grand Ole Opry, to the “lean times” of touring with Willie Nelson in the early 60's, it's a first-person account of the Halcyon Days of Classic Country music. I can't wait to turn the page…and I'm sure you'll feel the same way.
When it comes to country music, I grew up in the best of times when uniqueness, originality, true talent and the personal touch were at a premium. Frankie Miller is blessed with them all. By the time Frankie leaves the stage, the entire crowd knows him, and he will be their friend forever.
