Please Come To Nashville (for my funeral): RIP Dave Loggins

"Heavy Action" went from secondary theme to main theme, back to secondary when Hank Williams Jr. came along, then back to main.

ABC began using the ditty from Leo Arnaud's "Bugler's Dream" (from a 1959 Capitol Records album called "Charge") for the 1964 Winter Olympics, and all its Olympics thereafter. NBC combined it with John Williams' 1984 Olympic fanfare for the 1992 Barcelona Olympics.

Dave Loggins' "Augusta" dates to 1982, so 43 consecutive Masters.

"The Hockey Theme" by Dolores Claman debuted on "Hockey Night in Canada" in October 1968 on CBC. The network didn't meet Claman's price for a renewal in 2008. CTV immediately bought the tune and ashigned it to TSN and RDS hockey broadcasts. The 57th season of use is three months away. Unless Gillette is running "Look Sharp" on a regular basis, there's the record holder.

At least she was consistent. She didn't want to live with him when he was poor and unsuccessful and crashing with friends in Boston and didn't want to live with him in LA among the stars and in the house overlooking the ocean.
 
I wonder if he was just a "Country boy, who had his feet in LA, but his mind in Tennessee."
