Fond memories from our spring concert!

Patsy Cline recorded Willie's song "Crazy" 54 years ago today! At first, Cline had difficulty reaching the high notes due to her broken ribs from a recent car accident. Yet "Crazy" spent 21 weeks on the charts and eventually became one of Cline's signature tunes.
