"Beloved around the world, Randy Travis has sold more than 25 million albums in both country and gospel and is considered one of the finest performers of his generation, admired by superstars across the musical landscape, from Garth Brooks to Mick Jagger. From a working-class background in North Carolina to a job as a cook and club singer in Nashville to his "overnight success" with his smash 1986 album Storms of Life--which launched the neotraditional movement in country music--Randy's first three decades are a true rags-to-riches story. But in 2009, this seemingly charmed life began a downward spiral. His marriage dissolved, he discovered that his finances had unraveled, and his struggles with anger led to alcohol abuse, public embarrassment, and even police arrest in 2012. Then, just as he was putting his life back together, Randy suffered a devastating viral cardiomyopathy that led to a massive stroke which he was not expected to survive. Yet he not only survived but also learned to walk again and in 2016 accepted his induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame by singing the hymn that explains his life today: "Amazing Grace." Filled with never-before-told stories, Forever and Ever, Amen is a riveting tale of unfathomable success, great joy, deep pain, and redemption that can come only from above."--Amazon.com.;Pull the plug -- A troubled youth -- An unexpected rescue -- Too country -- From catfish cook to recording artist -- On the other hand -- Renewed hope -- Hitting the road -- Living the dream -- Always & forever -- The show -- Deeper than the holler -- Heroes and friends -- All-American heroes -- Consider the source -- Stirrings within -- Transition time: this is me -- Fans, flowers, and food -- Closed doors, open doors -- Born-again music -- I told you so -- The Irish gig -- Are we in trouble now? -- Happy anniversary -- A dark and lonely road -- Ambushed -- The man I am -- Feelin' mighty fine -- Flatline -- The tear that changed everything -- Home at last! -- Bittersweet reunions -- Old friends and new -- Mutual love and gratitude -- Free indeed!
