    My father was John Trulove he was the one flying Butch Stone around, and I used to play on that bus and my sister used to brush your dad,Jim Dandys hair. Jimmy used to come by our house with Ricky Lee,Harvey jet, Butch, chicky Hawk. I sure miss Ricky last time I saw him he gave me a big hug And said I will always be family. My father actually found them that bus. My father drove for Greyhound for years and knew how to locate one. My father, Jim, and Ricky told me this story. I also knew Joe Brown, and went to summer school with his daughter. Keep up the good work Piper. These memories are all I have left of my childhood.

Found out he was as nice,and cool as they come after meeting him in the 90’s. Reminded me of a cocky rooster on stage. Salute JD

    I'd love to have footage like this for myself. I have a few videos but not much. My dad got me listening the BOA when I just a little kid. I remember having a pink 8 track tape of High On the Hog. I thought it was the coolest things them setting on the hogs back. I still own 4 orginal vinyl albums of High On The Hog. Being a Arkansas boy myself I can relate to the up bringing and having southern mentality. I live in Paragould just 30 minutes from Black Oak. If you have any footage you'd be willing to share I'd be very appreciative. Watch the channel since I discovered it a few months ago.
