I'd be willing to bet money on this one. www.thelivinglegacy.net/Articles/BiloxiPreview2002.html"Fogelberg teamed up with flute player Tim Weisberg for Twin Sons Of Different Mothers in 1978, his first platinum album." Souvenirs *was* his breakthrough album, but not his first platinum album. OOH! And look at this..... Dan Fogelberg has a Temptations connection!! www.danfogelberg.com/faq.html"How did you meet your wife Jean? It was recently stated (erroneously) that I met Jean at an “Open Mic Night”. That’s not true. Jean was a life-long professional musician who worked in bands as well as solo, almost from the same age that I did. She actually wrote a song called "Power" that was recorded by the Temptations in 1980. When I met her she was playing guitar and singing at a cafe in Santa Fe. I started going in on a regular basis, we got to know each other, and eventually began dating." Peach

You win the bet, Peach ...it IS "Twin Sons of Different Mothers". And thanks for the additional Tempts related trivia! Maybe we should start a "Kevin Bacon" game here! and right YOU are, L-er. Nobody wants to try at picking Dennis's ex-wife out of the Pointer Sisters?

8-C. What singer's ex-wife Marianne was once a regular on "Hee Haw"?
Whoohoo!!! Thanks for putting one in there Kalisa that you KNEW I'd know!!!! The answer is ........
Kenny Rogers
Can I add a side-note to this question? What other VERY FAMOUS singer did Marianne date before she married Kenny?
While you are thinking, I'll sing a Kenny Rogers song..........
In Cumberland Kentucky On a cool hot evening Billy lay in love with Marrianne She was a rich judge's daughter He was a son of a miner But that night their love was more than they could stand The judge said to his daughter That son of that coal miner Is someone you'll go hell to leave alone She knew his dad so well She knew she couldn't tell But the truth was bound in show before too long
Their love had started growing on its own You can't out run the long arm of the law No, you can't out run the long arm of the law Billy placed his hand on Mary And he felt the baby's moving Kissed her and said I'll see you when I can The judge had made a promise When he caught up with Billy He'd sent him far away from Marianne The whole town knew he'd do it Too many times he'd proved it To at least a hundred men behind the wall
He'd smiled behind that frown And when he brought that gavel down He called himself the long arm of the law And he'd set his mind on seeing Billy fall In a hot humid mine shack A mid-white pulled the sheet back And placed cool damp towel on Marianne Billy's eyes were wide with wonder From the spell he was under When she placed the new born baby in his hands He didn't hear the siren Just a baby's crying That miracle of love was all he saw
When the door came crashing down And Billy turned around He felt the heart and soul inside him fall He stood face to face With the long arm of the law You can't out run the long arm of the law No, you can't out run the long arm of the law You can hide out for a while He says with a smile But you can't out run the long arm of the law
Seemed like everybody down in Cumberland Kentucky Came out that day to see poor Billy's trial The court was called to order There sat the judge's daughter She looked so proud Holding Billy's child When they brought Billy to him The judge just look right thru him As he held that Holy Bible in his hand And he smiled at his grandson Then his eyes cut back to Billy And said I think this time The law will understand Son, I sentence you to live with Marianne
You can't out run the long arm of the law No, you can't out run the long arm of the law He said to Billy with a smile I know you hide out for a while Ah but you can't out run the long arm of the law No you can't out run the long arm of the law

But since I'm a nice guy, I won't say you're wrong and I'm right. I'll do a search to see what I can find. ;D

You're correct, rufffan, Ebony, Ivory (I hear a song title coming on LOL!!), Elvis, Classic and Jay! Peach...sorry, I know you had the right thought in your head but the wrong name came off your fingers . Jay...I see where Allmusic did say that about Souvenirs. My source says "Twin Sons", and I'll stay with my source unless you can find other back-up. Allmusic isn't always 100% correct.

The right name just came to my mind, but I bet someone already corrected me. Is it Barry McGuire? Darn it! Oh, and about Dan Fogelberg, I posted the link where I read it, and it was a promo *from* Dan's PR people. I'm sure they know their facts. My guess is this....Allmusic isn't wrong in saying that Souvenirs went platinum. It did *eventually.* *But* it wasn't Dan's *first* platinum album. Since it's Dan's PR people that wrote this info, I tend to believe them. Peach
