Syl · FIRM BUT FAIR.

Married at 15 to a womanising gambler, she wrote songs about her own life experiences.
She was the mother of six, stayed married and cared for her husband till he died.

Very strong lady by all accounts.

Magica · Go Outside

These country singers usually are strong women tbh.

Loretta was Crystal Gayle's sister, their surname was actually Webb.

Crystal Gayle made a lot of good songs as well, I loved her hair when I was a child.

Magica · Go Outside

I like Crystal Gayle aswell, lovely voice

The only one left from that era is Willie.

When he goes, it's going to be a sad day around here.

Wasn't there a movie about her called the Coal Miner's Daughter with Sissy Spacek?

Sissy Spacek won the Oscar for playing her in that film.
