Three New Inductees Into Country Music Hall of Fame-- Part 2: Marty Stuart and Dean Dillon

Marty Stuart is a five-time Grammy winner who started his career as a sideman before going solo.  He charted six Top Ten Country songs with :Hillbilly Rock,"  "Little Things" and "Tempted.

Dean Dillon is known for being the tunesmith behind George Strait dozens of hits, including "The Chair,"  "Oceanfront Property" and "Here for a Good Time.

With Linda Hargrove, he wrote the timeless classic "Tennessee Whiskey."  This song was originally recorded by David Allan Coe who had a #77  hit with it.  Then George Jones took it to #2.  But, by far the biggest version of the song is the one done by Chris Stapleton who had a #1 on the Country chart and #23 on the Billboard Hot 100.

When I'm at a bar, I like to play "Tennessee Whiskey" and follow it up with Darius Rucker's version of "Wagon Wheel."  Those two songs go really well together.
