Ferlin Husky & Jean Shepard  More than a trailblazer, the Country Music Hall of Fame lady Jean Shepard has passed away at the age of 82.  She was known to be feisty and a real people person.  If there was a wrong, she would help to right it.   She passed away early this morning.  She was born on November 21, 19 33 in Oklahoma .  She came from a large family of nine children. Her story is much like that of many of the old time country stars.  Her parents were poor but they were abundant in love.  Jean found she loved singing and did so in church. She dared to sing songs about subject matter that was taboo in those times, songs about cheating and breaking up.  She went where no other woman artist had gone before.   One such song was “Act Like a Married Man.” She put together an all girl band when she was in High School and sang on Saturday mornings at her local radio station not far from Bakersfield after her family had moved west.  She was discovered on a l

Her  Pure & Simple  tour – her first extensive concerted touring effort in the United States since 1992, has sold out arena and arena, garnering her rave reviews from the critics for her pared-down approach at telling her musical story. She has just brought the tour north of the border to Canada, as well. At the same time, the Country Music Hall of Fame member is by no means resting on her laurels.
