Welcome
to
columbus
connection
hi,
I'm
michael
king
setting
in
for
david
brick,
and
we
got
a
great
show
today.
You
know
I
have
a
guest
here
was
telling
me
so
many
great
stories
about
columbus.
Now
it's
a
black
history
story,
but
it's
also
a
columbus
georgia
story.
Our
guest
is
miss
tammy,
lolita,
clark
and,
first
of
all,
welcome
to
our
show,
welcome
to
columbus
connection
and
you've
got
a
lot
of
stuff
in
your
belt
that
you've
done
and
a
lot
of
history
about
columbus,
georgia.
A
B
Yes,
sir,
well,
I've
been
singing
around
columbus
ever
since
1975..
I
started
because
my
sister
encouraged
me
hey
get
in
the
wlks
talent
show.
I
was
scared
to.
I
would
sing
around
the
neighborhood
around
urban
avenue,
dull
on
the
east
side,
not
too
far
away
from
ed
harveston,
and
he
was
like
a
real
good
friend
and
I
didn't
know
that
he
was
affiliated
with
woks.
B
So
when
I
went
to
audition
he
smiled
at
me,
he
said
sweetie
I've
been
listening
to
you
every
time
I
go
to
work
and
from
that
point
on,
I
just
started
singing
because
the
neighbors
would
stand
in
the
yard
and
listen
to
me
sing
because
I
was
afraid
to
go
outside
because
of
my
vision.
So
I
would
just
sing
sing,
sing.
I'd
sing
commercials
sing
the
wallpaper
just
saying.
B
My
aunts
and
uncles,
they
were
singers
and
distant
cousins.
I'm
related
to
the
singer.
Eddie
floyd
did
the
hit
song
knock
on
wood
with
stax
records,
grandmother
out
of
albany.
Georgia
had
a
radio
program
called
sister,
mary
floyd
and
her
trumpet
sisters,
and
she
would
bring
gospel
to
albany
every
sunday
morning
and
she
would
preach
and
and
feed
you
and
different
stars
in
the
day
would
come
in
when
they
didn't.
A
B
In
the
early
70s
it
was
a
lot
going
on,
you
know
in
vietnam,
and
everything
and
times
were
changing
and
columbus
really
started
growing,
because
a
lot
of
people
were
stationed
here.
My
mother
married
my
stepfather,
and
we
got
stationed
here.
He
was
stationed
at
fort
benning
and
I
watched
a
lot
of
musicians
who
were
nobodies
come
through
here
and
I
would
see
them
my
mother
would
take
them
in
feed
them.
B
I
looked
up
a
couple
of
them:
wind
up
going
to
woodstock
all
kinds
of
things,
so
it
was
like
columbus
was
like
a
melting
pot
of
people
coming
in
and
going
to
different
parts
of
the
world.
It
was
really
something
to
see
and
something
to
know
because
channel
9
woks
everybody
here
were
doing
wonderful
jobs.
You
know,
and
black
people
were
really
starting
to
come
into
their
own,
and
it
was
really
a
wonderful
time
to
grow
up
to
see
this
now.
A
B
A
little
richard
he
used
to
do
my
hair
aretha
franklin.
I
used
to
follow
her
everywhere.
She
went
because
it
was
something
magical
about
her
lord.
She
could
cook
the
best
fried
chicken
every
day
in
my
life,
but
I
never
told
my
grandma
sam
and
dave
percy
sledge,
the
singers
most
of
them
were
coming
down
from
stax
records.
You
know,
out
of
you,
know
that
area
and
everybody
just
knew
everybody
in.
A
The
whole
circuit
some
of
this
history-
I
share
with
you,
because
I
grew
up
in
north
alabama
and
in
mosul
shoals
alabama
those
fame
studios,
percy
sledge.
I
knew
him
personally.
I
knew
percy
slid
son
percy,
sledge
junior.
I
knew
all
of
them
growing
up,
and
so
I
I
I
can
remember
on
fourth
of
july,
we
was
at
this
place
called
miss
ella's
cafe,
percy.
B
B
Did
because
of
the
jim
crow
laws
we
as
black
people
were
struggling
and
a
lot
of
singers.
If
you
do
your
history
about
georgia
and
the
situation
with
ray
charles
because
he
wanted
to
have
black
and
white
dance
together,
so
he
was
barred
and
a
lot
of
the
singers
couldn't
stay
in
the
hotel,
so
grandmother
offered
her
home.
B
B
B
Was
I
would
say,
like
a
kind
of
a
large
situation,
pianos
guitars,
you
know
just
rooms
upstairs
room,
downstairs,
aunts
and
uncles,
everybody.
You
know
taking
care
of
who's
coming
in
next.
You
just
we
just
offered
them
lodging
and
they
offered
us
love
and
it
was
like
wow
what
a
history
the
records
the
records
read.
Like
a
dictionary,
I
mean
it's
like,
oh,
my
goodness,.
A
A
A
B
A
lot
a
lot
of
the
stars
were
already
coming
before
I
was
born,
so
grandmother's
house
had
like
a
reputation
of
you,
know
the
radio
programs
and
everything
that
she
did
and
taking
care
of
stars,
and,
as
I
was
coming
up
in
the
early
60s
go,
you
know
it
was
like
it
was
still
there
because
going
to
school.
You
know
you
saw
what
you
saw,
you
knew
you
saw,
the
whites
only
signs,
you
know,
you
know
how
it
was.
A
B
A
That's
you
know,
I
remember
that
you
know
so
that
was
a
big
hit
back
in
the
day,
and
I
think
you
said
that
was
on
stack
tracker.
Stacks
did
a
lot
of
recording
some
of
the
artists
they
were
sent
to
muscle
shows
there
was
this
group
that
actually
played
most
of
the
music
for
a
lot
of
artists
that
was
called
the
swampers
and
one
of
the
members
of
the
swampers,
the
guitar
player
jimmy
johnson.
A
A
B
He
knew
his
way
around
the
house
and
he
would
sit
on
the
sofa
and
grandma
would
bring
him
some
food
and
stuff
and
the
big
picture
she
had
of
them.
You
know
sitting
on
the
sofa
eating
a
bowl
of
chitlins,
just
getting
ready
to
sing
he'd
get
up
and
he'd
know
where
the
piano
was,
and
he
was
so
brilliant.
I
would
listen
to
him
play
and
he
would
play
scales
and
stuff.
He
said
you
know
baby.
B
A
A
total
memory,
of
course,
you
know
you
and
ray
had
a
connection.
You
are
visually
impaired
and
being
able
to
open
up
the
other
senses
to
hear
things
and
pick
up
the
I
mean
that's
a
genius
when
god
take
away
something
he
owns.
A
B
A
A
A
Now
you
know
I
was
watching
this
tv
show,
I
don't
know
I
shouldn't
say
the
name,
but
but
it's
on
one
of
the
networks
yeah
and
it's
it
was
about
it's
about
columbus,
georgia.
This
family,
who
came
from,
I
think
it
was
san,
diego
or
san
francisco,
back
home
to
columbus
georgia,
and
in
this
particular
episode
they
was
telling
a
fictitious
story
of
this
hotel
that
was
gonna
tear
down
and,
of
course
the
plot
was.
A
The
hotel
was
supposed
to
be
the
place
where
all
of
the
black
entertainers
stayed
when
they
came
to
columbus
georgia,
because
everything
else
was
segregated
and
that's.
The
real
story
is
more
interesting.
That
particular
hotel
is
actually
your
grandmother's
house.
Wow.
A
B
A
Everybody
I
mean
columbus
is
so
rich
with
history
and
again,
if
we
we're
talking
about
february
being
black
history
month,
but
the
story
you're
telling
are
actually
columbus,
georgia,
history
and
it
should
be
included
as
columbus,
georgia
history,
because
a
lot
of
things,
a
lot
of
people
have
came
through
this
area
and
they
we
blessed
them
and
they
blessed
us.
B
A
B
A
Someone
wanted
to
get
in
touch
with
you.
Do
you
have
a?
I
don't
want
you
to
give
out
a
phone
number,
but
maybe
email
address
how
they
could
contact
you.
A
B
B
I
was
sitting
at
my
grandmother's
table
and
I
was
crying
because
I
would
watch
my
sisters
and
my
brothers
and
everybody
go
to
school
and
I
wasn't
allowed
to
go
and
he
said
baby.
Why
are
you
crying?
Because
I
want
to
go
to
school
like
them
and
when
you
go
to
school,
try
to
go
to
school
as
a
black
child?
And
all
you
see
is
the
white
signs?
Whites
only.
B
A
A
A
blessing
I
had
to
get
this
story
out.
I
had
to
really
because
I'm
I
was
seeing
things
that
wasn't
accurate
and
I
wanted
people
to
know
get
some
accuracy
about
columbus
georgia.
This
is
from
columbus,
georgia
to
albany
georgia,
and
the
stories
was
not
being
told
as
they
should,
because
in
that
particular
program
I
was
telling
you
about.
They
had
also
an
episode
where
martin
luther
king
stayed
at
this
hotel.
Martin
did
not
stay
at
that.
Hotel
martin
stayed
at
your
grandmother's,
so
so
this
is,
I
mean
this
is
so
historical.
B
A
A
Here,
oh
it
was,
she
was
beautiful.
Oh
yes,
yes,
well
I'll
tell
you.
There
is
a
silver
lining
and
thanks
to
columbus
georgia
coming
up
to
the
plate
and
doing
what
it
was
supposed
to
do,
things
have
gotten
better.
We
still
have
problems
and
still
issues,
but
things
are
getting
better
and
we
hope
that
this
information
that
you're
giving
us
will
be
a
blessing
to
someone,
and
hopefully
someone
will
come
up
and
talk
to
you
and
think
about
putting
this
down
on
paper
because
we
shouldn't
let
all
of
these
stories
get
lost.
A
Well
again,
give
us
yours,
I'm
not
going
to
answer
your
phone
number.
I
don't
want
anybody
crazy,
calling
you
but
give
us
your
your
email
address,
and
maybe
someone
can
email
you
and
talk
about
getting
in
touch
with
you
and
writing
this
story.
It's.
A
B
A
We
are
blessed
ms
clark,
we're
blessed
to
have
you
here
and
we're
blessed
to
have
people
out
there
watching
it
and
listening
to
this
story,
and
we
hope
that
we
will
find
some
way
of
connecting
you
with
information
people
and
all
types
of
things
that
you
would
want
on
columbus
connection.
We'll
see
you
next
time.
