Question
Help! this is driving me crazy!
When I lived in east Texas in the early 80's "When A Man Loves A Woman" a good bit on the country station, it is the most beautiful version of this song. But I can not find the artist. It was a little faster version and the organ music {I think} was so beautiful! Can u help me find it? Thanks

Answer
Hello Dorothy,

"When A Man Loves A Woman" was a country hit for Jack Grayson & Blackjack in early 1982. The record enetered the charts in December 1981 and remained there for seventeen weeks, peaking at #18.

Glad to be of help. Cheers.........Mel.

I have been hooked on Country music since first hearing Jim Reeves in the late 50s. Two of the greatest nights of my life were seeing The Mavericks and Reba McEntire live in London. I am more at home with traditional Country music, but am happy to try and help with any questions relating to songs up to 2000. Please note that I DO NOT have the same knowledge about country music videos or singers private lives.
