It's been 20 years since we lost "the best friend a song ever had!" Conway Twitty left this world, way before his time, on June 5, 1993 after a show in Branson, Missouri.

It’s time to rewind the clock and see what was at No. 1 on the Billboard Country Charts this week in Country Music History.

Every Sunday, from 6-9am, we go back in time on WGNA's Classic Country Hall of Fame Show. One of the most popular requested artists is still the great Conway Twitty!

If the rainy weather has you feeling a little down, try these 'rainy' country classics. Maybe you'll feel better, maybe you'll feel bluer- but hopefully you'll stay dry.

Every Sunday Morning I get to take you on a journey through the history of Country Music on GNA. We recently featured some great songs of the 1970s, which led me to compile this list of the best '70s songs for Taste of Country.

It’s hard to believe that country music legend Conway Twitty passed away in 1993 on June 5. It was one of those things that you remember where you were when you heard the news of his death.

The Music and Memories of June 5

Every Sunday Morning, 6-9am, I host WGNA's Classic Country Hall of Fame Show. As I look through the records and compact discs I use every week, I'm reminded of how many of these great artists are no longer living. With this in mind, I decided to honor 10 singers that left us way too young, and in my opinion, still had some songs to sing!

I've seen a lot of great combinations throughout the history of Country Music. However, in this list, I pick two full-time country singers that join forces to equally share in the success of a hit duet.
