Ponder, Sykes & Wright (circa 1982)
Goofing off before a Tennesseans rehearsal at my house, David, Michael
and I started singing around the keyboard. We heard something that afternoon
that we will cherish forever. It was a wonderful sound that scared us a
little bit. We've all had gigs, jobs and distractions along the way. But
in our minds, since that day, there has always been and there always will
be a "Ponder, Sykes & Wright" |
Memphis (circa 1982)
When Michael Sykes started traveling with his new wife Tanya and her father,
Rusty Goodman, David and I joined the country show-band "Memphis." Larry
Strickland, Richard Lee, David Ponder and myself beat the road for nearly
five years with a four-piece band and road crew. Bob Fortner later replaced
Richard. The group played over 200 days per year and charted a few country
singles in the mid-eighties.
