    Nashville’s Most Chilling Music Industry Murder on Music Row...

    If you like these episodes, please subscribe and follow on the YouTube channel as it better supports my business and research! Thank you for being here and supporting music storytelling. 🎵It happened over 35 years ago, but it's an event that still visibly shakes the locals when you bring it up. A young chart manager was gunned down right outside a record label office on 16th Avenue in Music Row in the late 1980s. Was this random? (No.) Who would have targeted him?? An act that lasted less than 3 seconds has reverberated theories and accusations throughout Nashville for decades. Finally, in the 2000s, there was a conviction and answers. While many know that such a horrific event occurred here, few know the full details and story behind that fateful night. Join me today as we dig up the roots of the murder on music row.🎵🎶 Roots Music History | Music Journalist & YouTube Podcaster 🎶🎸Stories of Divine Music Intervention 🎸*Member of the US Press Association* 🇺🇸On ROOTS, we dig up the roots that grew your favorite music.
