LIFE OF THE PARTY (Randy Travis)

Song Randy Travis sang during an episode of Matlock back in 1992 I met RT one night back stage after a show that I was playing with him and asked him about this song. He told me that a friend of his (name I can't remember) wrote this song for him specifically for this episode. People claim Allen Shamblin & Billy Kirsch wrote this song but I spoke with Allen Shamblin by email and he advised that he did not write this song and further advised that he wrote the song "THE LIFE OF THE PARTY" for Neal McCoy which was a totally different song. Therefore, as of right now, the true songwriter of Randy Travis's LIFE OF THE PARTY is still currently unknown but RT made it clear that he did not write it. That night, Randy Travis turned and told his road manager he said "Remind me when we get back to Nashville to go cut that song in the studio because it's a good one and I had forgotten about it." He then turned to me saying "I'm so glad you reminded me of that song, I've always wanted to record that song but never got around to it. Later that night they left for Nashville but unfortunately it never happened to my knowledge. About a year or so later Randy had his stroke. This is my favorite song by him acoustically. In this video, I have enhanced the sound with sound software and sort of remastered it. Btw, RT was a GREAT super friendly guy that night, Such a cool experience.
