Tillman Franks

Tue. March 11, 2008 My Father TIllman Franks was a rare and unique individual with many talents. All one has to do is type his name in--any 'browser' online, and they will discover many things about his wonderful Talents and accomplishments to the Music Industry.

Names Like Johnny Horton --David Houston-- Hank Williams Jr__Webb Pierce__Elvis Presley__Merle Kilgore and many more were profoundly affected by the intervention of Tillman Franks as Manager--Promoter__Song writer--and Entrepreneur. Without which it may be said that the then-- Music Industry may have taken some very different turns, had it not been for my Dad and his unique style and understanding of what was needed in those years, and which artists were the ones to make the hits and lead the way for many others to come. Tillman Franks was a "One of a Kind" and there never has been one since like him, with the sense of direction that he keenly felt. He was a heck of a guy and a wonderful Father
