We will continue to search for great new music to listen to and share with you.
Music Charts Magazine’s Scott Moore pointed out Mr. RJ Galloway’s talent a few month’s ago and we finally got around to getting RJ on the phone with Big Al Weekley for an interview. After hearing the song “I’m Over You” it was a done deal.
Now and then you hear a song that sticks with you. “I’m Over You” is a song that is ever so simple yet powerful, soft and strong with a mesmerizing quality. You can feel RJ’s heart.
It’s funny how a short song can cover and say so much. Songs like this make all of us reminisce of a past relationships, moments with one you loved or maybe still love. Also, A time when we are alone. I think songs like “I’m Over You” can play a role in coping and healing for people that fit the shoes of one moving on and also those who still have not yet moved beyond the past. Be sure to listen to “I’m Over You” at the end of the interview. It’s a beautiful song.
3 thumbs up to RJ Galloway. 3 thumbs up to “I’m Over You“.

The Hotdisc chart is compiled from DJs and industry professionals’ ratings of songs currently being promoted on the Rush Released CD. They are not airplay charts, as airplay charts cannot work in Europe because there are no terrestrial country stations. The hundreds of country programmes on air which we service are likely to play a particular song only twice at most in a three month period, therefore rendering airplay charts insignificant in Europe. It works well in America where there are plenty of non-stop country stations but it does not work here. Any Airplay Chart you may see claiming to provide this service is bogus and Hotdisc does not condone these charts at all. They are misleading at best for the reasons stated.
The Hotdisc charts are put together weekly using ratings supplied by DJs who give scores to every song on the last three months’ editions of Rush Released. The scores are averaged out per week to give an accurate guide to the songs which are being championed by the industry. The aim is to showcase the songs which the industry professionals are flagging up as quality songs. This is a very useful exercise as it is free of politics, hype and rigging and done solely on merit!

Bluegrass legend Curly Seckler began his career in music in 1935, performing with his brothers in a band called the Yodeling Rangers, in Salisbury, NC. In1939 he hit the big time, when Charlie Monroe recruited him to sing harmony in his new group, the Kentucky Partners, after the breakup of the Monroe Brothers. Curly worked several stints with Charlie Monroe early in his career. He also teamed with various other bluegrass pioneers, including Jim and Jesse McReynolds, Mac Wiseman, The Sauceman Brothers, and The Stanley Brothers.

The Foggy Mountain Boys circa 1955
In 1949 Curly joined Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs’ Foggy Mountain Boys, as tenor singer and mandolin player. Except for a couple of brief absences, he remained with Flatt & Scruggs until 1962. During that time he recorded well over 100 songs with them, including many of their best known and most popular hits (“Roll in My Sweet Baby’s Arms,” “Salty Dog Blues,” “I’ll Go Stepping Too,” “Dim Lights, Thick Smoke,” etc.). Several of Curly’s original songs were recorded by Flatt & Scruggs, including “No Mother Or Dad” and “That Old Book of Mine.”
The Lester Flatt/Curly Seckler duets from the 1950s are still considered to be among the best bluegrass performances ever. In addition, Curly’s rock-solid “chop” rhythm on mandolin was the foundation of the Foggy Mountain Boys’ instrumental sound during his tenure. Millions of fans are now able to experience the magic of this great band through the DVDs of classic Flatt & Scruggs TV shows which have been released by Shanachie Records in conjunction with the Country Music Hall of Fame.

Lester Flatt andthe Nashville Grass circa 1973
Curly left the music business briefly during the 1960s, but soon returned to performing when bluegrass festivals began to thrive. He joined Lester Flatt’s Nashville Grass in 1973 and remained until Lester’s death in 1979. Lester passed the torch to Curly, and he took over leadership of the Nashville Grass for another fifteen years, until his retirement in 1994. That same year Curly recorded “60 Years of Bluegrass With My Friends,” a celebration of his career, with a stellar guest list of musicians, including Ralph Stanley, Josh Graves, Jim & Jesse McReynolds, Mac Wiseman, Benny Martin, Marty Stuart, Willis Spears, Jimmy Martin, Doyle Lawson, and more. In early 2005, Copper Creek Records reissued this great recording, with several bonus tracks. Also in 2005, County Records reissued Curly’s first solo album from 1971, with additional bonus tracks from 1989 (“That Old Book of Mine” Cnty-2740).

In the studio – 2004.
Though Curly retired from full-time touring, he continued to make frequent guest appearances at festivals and concerts. He also continued to write songs, and in 2004 he made his first new recordings in ten years. Nearly half of the songs are Seckler originals, many of which had not been performed before. The incredible list of guests who appeared on these recordings includes Dudley Connell, Larry Sparks, Russell Moore, John Carter Cash, Laura Weber Cash, Larry Cordle, Tater Tate, Rob Ickes, Herschel Sizemore, Chris Sharp, Larry Perkins, Leroy Troy, and many more. The first volume of new material was released on Copper Creek in the fall of 2005 (“Down In Caroline” CC-0236). It was a finalist for 2006 IBMA Recorded Event of the Year. In late 2006, Copper Creek released Curly’s latest CD, “Bluegrass, Don’t You Know” (CC-0243). The Chicago Tribune touted it as one of the Top 10 bluegrass CDs of the year.

With Woody Platt of the Steep Canyon Rangers
Seckler is regarded as one of the greatest tenor singers ever in bluegrass, and in 2004 he was inducted into the IBMA Hall of Fame. He was inducted into the North Carolina Music Hall of Fame in 2010, and into the Bill Monroe Bluegrass Hall of Fame in 2011. Into his early 90s, Curly was still a vital, creative, hard-working entertainer, performing at selected music festivals including MerleFest, IBMA Fan Fest, ROMP, and Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival. In 2008 he was featured on the PBS television show, Song of the Mountains, backed by the superb North Carolina band, The Steep Canyon Rangers. Curly was profiled on UNC-TV’s North Carolina People show in 2009 (available for viewing on our web site). He made a second appearance on the Song of the Mountains show in 2010. That same year Seckler celebrated his 75th anniversary in music, with a special program at the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville.
Curly Seckler is the embodiment of bluegrass history – a legendary entertainer who has seen it all – and living proof that traditional bluegrass still thrives in the new millennium!

“GRAND FUNK RAILROAD”
Presented by
Music Charts Magazine®
– an Audio Exclusive
An American icon, A stamp in the music industry, You can’t have 70’s Rock music without them.
Sit back and relax as Music Charts Magazine’s Big Al Weekley has a sit down with Grand Funk Railroad’s Don Brewer. Don was the drummer, a singer and one of the original members of Grand Funk that continues to tour with this American staple today that we all call Grand Funk Railroad.
Read the rest of Grand Funk Railroad’s history by clicking on the below link in red:
Grand Funk Railroad — History
Grand Funk Railroad (also known as Grand Funk) is an American blues rock band that was highly popular during the 1970s, touring extensively and playing to packed arenas worldwide. David Fricke of Rolling Stone magazine once said, “You cannot talk about rock in the 1970s without talking about Grand Funk Railroad!” Known for their crowd-pleasing areana rock style, the band was well-regarded by audiences despite a relative lack of critical acclaim. The band’s name is a play on words of the Grand Trunk Western Railroad, a railroad line that ran through the band’s home town of Flint, Michigan.
Originally a trio, the band was formed in 1969 by Mark Farner (guitar, vocals) and Don Brewer (drums, vocals) from Terry Knight and the Pack, and Mel Schacher (bass) from Question Mark & the Mysterians; Knight soon became the band’s manager, as well as naming the band as a play on words for the Grand Trunk Western Railroad, a well-known rail line in Michigan. First achieving recognition at the 1969 Atlanta Pop Festival, the band was signed by Capitol Records. After a raucous, well-received set on the first day of the festival, the group was asked back to play at the Second Atlanta Pop Festival the following year. Patterned after hard rock power trios such as Cream, the band, with Terry Knight’s marketing savvy, developed its own popular style. In August 1969, the band released its first album titled On Time, which sold over one million copies, and was awarded a gold record in 1970.
Early the next year (Feb.), a second album, Grand Funk (aka “The Red Album”), was awarded gold status. Despite critical pans and a lack of airplay, the group’s first six albums (five studio releases and one live album) were quite successful.
