Long before You Take This Cowboy's Hands rodeo cowboy and

126
00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:20.439
country singer Chris LaDue. He was born in Biloxi, Mississippi,

127
00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:23.480
in nineteen forty eight. Grew up in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Started

128
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:26.120
doing rodeo at thirteen and then he was a champion

129
00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:28.920
high school rodeo star, and he was a champion rodeo

130
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:31.160
or in college. Then he went pro and then we

131
00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:33.519
went pro to make some extra money, started writing and

132
00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:36.240
recording songs, sold the tapes out of his pickup when

133
00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:38.519
he was on the rodeo circuit. Then he won the

134
00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:42.000
bareback National Championship at the national finals. YEP. That gave

135
00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:44.279
him all the exposure and money he needed to quit,

136
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.399
retire from rodeo basically and concentrate on music. That was

137
00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:51.079
nineteen eighty. Now he had a huge underground following at

138
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:54.199
least twenty two albums, all independently. Nope, never had a

139
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:56.480
song on the radio or anything that but he was well,

140
00:07:56.480 --> 00:07:59.160
well known for his live concerts. They were a messy

141
00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:01.639
for any country fan. So even had a mechanical bull

142
00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:03.800
on stage. You would write it during the show between songs.

143
00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:07.040
Then he got mainstream exposure. Yeah, Garth Brooks mentioned his

144
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:09.399

145
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:17.079
