Front Porch Ramblings
by Stan Hitchcock
 Stan's Special Moments of Music: I have stood in the wings of great theaters and auditoriums waiting to sing my songs and shared special
moments of music from heroes of mine. I heard Slim Whitman sing "Indian Love Call", in his pure tenor, in an auditorium in Michigan. Bobby Helms "Fraulien" in Atlanta. How about Hank Locklin's "Please Help Me I'm Falling" with the
Floyd Robertson piano intro and turn around that started a trend in piano runs that Floyd Cramer built into a signature sound on his Nashville sessions. I worked the Opry with Hank, many times, and he always amazed me. Ray Price's early
sessions where he was building his great career sound, or Faron Young's "Hello Walls" and Sonny James "Young Love" were great moments in Country Music and times I stood there and just drank in the sound.
