Earthy, sexy, and vivacious, the life of beloved country singer,
Patsy Cline, who soared from obscurity to international fame to
tragic death in just thirty short years, is explored in colorful
and poignant detail. An innovator--and even a hell-raiser--Cline
broke all the boys' club barriers of Nashville's music business in
the 1950s and brought a new Nashville sound to the nation with her
pop hits and torch ballads like "Walking After Midnight," "I Fall
to Pieces" and "Crazy." She is the subject of a major Hollywood
movie and countless articles, and her albums are still selling 45
years after her death. Ellis Nassour was the very first to write
about Cline and did so with the cooperation of the stars who knew
and loved her--including Jimmy Dean, Jan Howard, Brenda Lee,
Loretta Lynn, Roger Miller, Dottie West, and Faron Young. He was
the only writer to interview Cline's mother and husbands. This
updated edition features not only a complete discography and a host
of never-before-published photographs, but includes an afterword
that details controversial claims about her birth, the battle
between Cline's siblings for her possessions, the amazing influence
Cline had on a new generation of singers and, in Cline's own words
from letters to a devoted friend, her excitement as her career
soared to new heights and her marriage descended to new depths.
