Tunes For The Troops     **Artist Showcase** Triumph is a Canadian hard rock power trio that was popular in the late 1970s through the 1980s. Eight of the band's albums were certified gold or higher, and Triumph was nominated for multiple Juno Awards, including Group of the Year Award in 1979, 1985, 1986 and 1987. Like their fellow Canadians Rush and Saga, Triumph began building their reputation across North America as a live band, peaking in the early to mid 1980s. The band was formed by Toronto music veterans Gil Moore (drums, vocals), Mike Levine (bass, keyboards, producer), and Rik Emmett (singer, guitarist, songwriter) in 1975. Enjoy the variety of musical selections that the Canteen Deejays provide throughout the thread. Please ping any DJ with your requests for the Troops! All music is removed on Monday. Thanks to all the DeeJay's for their time & effort providing entertainment for the Troops! *Canteen Mission Statement* Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allies military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.

In my survey of the Roots of Hot Country, I’ve covered the songwriters who were assembled by producer Chips Moman to provide songs for Elvis Presley’s revival: Wayne Carson, Mark James, Mac Davis and Eddie Rabbitt. Last week I looked at the contributions of Mac Davis. This week it’s Eddie.

Eddie Rabbitt grew up in North Jersey in a musical family. His father played fiddle and accordion, and Eddie learned to play guitar from his scoutmaster. At a time when a Jersey boy would naturally gravitate to the doo-wop sounds being heard on every street corner, Eddie gravitated instead to country music.

Dropping out of high school, Eddie worked at a series of menial jobs in New Jersey and then Nashville. His first recording contract took him nowhere, and instead he concentrated on writing songs. Of all the beer-soaked denizens of Wally’s Nightclub in Nashville, Eddie was the hungriest. It was a chance meeting with Chips Moman in 1969 that produced one of Elvis Presley’s greatest successes, an Eddie Rabbitt tune titled “Kentucky Rain”. Eddie was 28.

It was five years before Eddie penned another hit, and it went all the way to #1 on the country charts in 1974. This song got Eddie a contract with Elektra Records.
