Sam Wellington Libros

Sam Wellington, a retired member of the award-winning country music group The Fabulous Four Guys, spent over thirty-two years as part of the Grand Ole Opry. After touring extensively with country legends like Charley Pride and Hank Williams, Jr., he and his partner Brent Burkett chose to retire to quieter lives. Burkett enjoyed his thirty-eight-acre farm in Fairview, Tennessee, until his death in 2007, while Wellington turned to writing, splitting his time between Franklin, Tennessee, and the Florida Gulf Coast. His first book, which achieved success on major charts, inspired him to write a second one about his early days in music with a high school DOO-WOP group called The Jets. This narrative captures the journey of starry-eyed kids from Ohio Valley steel towns aiming for success in show business. The story chronicles their transformation into The Four Guys, filled with emotional highs and lows, all narrated with Wellington's signature humor. IN THE BEGINNING. THERE WAS THE MEN'S ROOM offers an entertaining glimpse into the life of an honest author who shares his experiences from over three decades in the music industry.
