Bryant, who had been diagnosed with cancer, died at her Gatlinburg home, said Caroline Davis, spokeswoman for the songwriters licensing agency BMI She was 77 Nashville Songwriter Felice Bryant Dies Apr 23, 5:51 AM EST Felice Bryant, who with her late husband wrote "Bye Bye Love" and other Everly Brothers hits and the hand-clapping bluegrass standard "Rocky Top," died Tuesday I had my diversion, and we went back to work Julian, the marching band's former director, said Tuesday Others who recorded songs by the Bryants included Elvis Presley, the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the Grateful Dead, the Beach Boys, Tony Bennett, Simon & Garfunkel, Ray Charles, Roy Orbison and Sarah Vaughan They were among the first in Nashville to make songwriting a full-time career They were elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1991 and inducted into the National Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1986 It has been the fight song for the University of Tennessee athletic teams since the early 1970s, whipping football crowds into a frenzy at Neyland Stadium She sang on the radio as a child but her true passion was poetry "Boudleaux accepted every dumb line I said just to get it over with Alone, Boudleaux Bryant also wrote "All I Have to Do Is Dream" and "Devoted to You," both recorded by the Everly Brothers, and "Love Hurts," recorded by Orbison "Rocky Top," written in 10 minutes in 1968 and recorded by the Osborne Brothers, became a state song in 1982, joining "Tennessee Waltz" and others Ten minutes later, 'Rocky Top' was finished Survivors include two sons Their other big hits include the Everlys' "Wake Up Little Susie," "We Could," recorded by various artists including Jim Reeves and Al Martino, and "Raining in My Heart," recorded by Buddy Holly, Dean Martin and Ray Price "We played it in a drill and the crowd loved it so much, we kept playing it," W But in the back of my mind I kept thinking, 'What a gem,'" she said in a 1997 interview J Her husband did most of the melody writing and she provided the lyrics Their first major success was "Country Boy" by Little Jimmy Dickens in 1948 Her husband started to strum a guitar tune, and they made up the words Felice Bryant was born in Milwaukee "That's why all the folks on Rocky Top get their corn from a jar The couple began writing songs together when Boudleaux Bryant set his wife's poetry to music Her husband, Boudleaux, who died in 1987, and she wrote or co-wrote 800 recorded songs cut by more than 500 vocalists "Corn don't grow at all on Rocky Top, dirt's too rocky by far," the song says Their songs have accounted for approximately 500 million record sales " Felice Bryant recalled she and her husband stumbled on the song when she became tired of writing sad lyrics and refused to continue The song, with a bouncy beat, is about a secluded spot in the Smoky Mountains where there's no "smoggy smoke" or telephone bills agreed in principle to sell the Anaheim Angels to Phoenix businessman Arturo Moreno for just over $180 million, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday Angels Sold to Businessman, Report Says Apr 16, 6:38 AM EST The Walt Disney Co Major league baseball had not heard about a deal being reached The Angels won the first World Series in their 42-year history last fall, but Disney has taken steep losses since becoming involved with the team seven years ago Disney has been trying to sell the Angels and its other sports franchise, the NHL's Mighty Ducks of Anaheim, for several years The newspaper cited anonymous sources familiar with the deal in its report, which was posted on its Web site The company also spent nearly $100 million to refurbish the team's stadium, renaming it Edison Field The efforts intensified after the Angels won the World Series last year "We haven't received anything final with anyone, and we know they are negotiating with that gentleman," Bob DuPuy, baseball's chief operating officer, told The Associated Press Disney bought a minority interest in the then-California Angels in 1996 from Gene Autry, who had owned the team since it joined the American League as an expansion franchise in 1961 "If and when they reach a final agreement, they would contact us The idea was that Disney could promote its teams at its theme parks and tout those parks and other products at games Nothing has been submitted It also signed a 33-year lease with Anaheim, with a clause that keeps the Angels in the city until at least 2017, even if Disney sells the team "The problem with a company like ours is, if you run them (sports teams) for the shareholders, you would have a negative impact on Disneyland and Orange County â€â€? you couldn't pay the salaries," Eisner said in November The cross-promotion was designed to keep tourists in Anaheim, but the strategy hasn't worked for the company Disney spokeswoman Leslie Goodman did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment Disney acquired the rest of the team after Autry's death in 1998, paying a total of $147 million " According to Forbes magazine, Moreno has an estimated net worth of $940 million "If you ran them for Orange County and Southern California, and pay what it takes for salaries, then you have the negative impact of losses " The 56-year-old Moreno, a former minority investor in the Arizona Diamondbacks, would become the first Mexican-American to become majority owner of a major league team Soon after the win, Disney Chairman and Chief Executive Michael Eisner said the company was being more aggressive about finding a buyer |
