I long for the musical artists of the 1970’s & 80’s. The songs told a story that most of us could relate to. Ronnie Milsap’s life is a story in itself. Thanks to NetHugs for bringing these beloved songs back for us to listen again.

A great singer in his time! He appealed to a large audience, country, pop, and rock n’ roll! I still have LP’s from those years. But then, I’m getting older.
