David Houston - A Woman Always Knows '1971

Tracks list

       Born and raised in Bossier City, Louisiana, country singer David Houston
-- whose lineage included Sam Houston and General Robert E. Lee -- became a
regular on The Louisiana Hayride as a teenager. Apparently his soaring tenor
voice wasn't totally appreciated; he found trouble getting work in the music
business, and ended up as an insurance underwriter. But record producer Billy
Sherrill brought Houston into the fold when Epic Records was still a young label
(the early '60s), and Houston brought the company its first real hit with
"Mountain of Love." In 1966 he broke through to major status with "Almost
Persuaded," which netted a pair of Grammy Awards and brought pop recognition as
well. A member of The Grand Ole Opry since 1971, he racked up 28 hit records
over a decade, including duets with Tammy Wynette and Barbara Mandrell. David
Houston made his last appearance on the show on November 6, 1993; later in the
month he suffered a ruptured brain aneurism and remained in a coma for five days
until his death on November 30.
