The Box Tops: The Letter Add to My Profile | More Videos
MY PARENTS NEED HELP ! www.charlesandnitatalley. com
CHECK ME OUT ON FACEBOOK,TOO ! SEe MY CAUSES !!
Hey! I'm Gary Talley, original (and current)guitarist for the Box Tops from Memphis. Our big hits in the 60's were "The Letter" , "Cry Like A Baby" and "Soul Deep". SEE WWW.CHARLESANDNITATALLEY.COM We got back together in 1997, recorded "Tear Off" live in the studio and still do occasional gigs. for lots more info see: WWW.BOXTOPS.COM
I live outside of Nashville where I do sessions, gigs, and teach guitar. I'm currently working on an instrumental CD featuring some of the exact same notes that the big stars use !!
My instructional DVD "GUITAR PLAYING FOR SONGWRITERS" is available on my website *www.garytalley.com*
My friend and co-writer Richard Fleming and I have a duo called "Memphinati". (That's 'cause he's from Cincinnati and I'm from Egypt). We've got a CD called "The Beat of Love" out on Appaloosa Records...........
People tell me I might possibly be THE WORLD'S GREATEST GUITAR TEACHER (next to Esteban)..I'm not positive about that, though...hard to tell... One time I taught 2 cows how to play guitar and THEY AIN'T EVEN GOT FINGERS!!!
I have a large dog named Bob. He's in Wyoming now on vacation.
Just dropping to note to say thanks to all that have supported me so far "I'm in the TOP 15 MOST POPULAR" of over 9000 entrants, but I still need your help.

Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.
I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
