Which country music star broke into the business by flying a helicopter to Johnny Cash's backyard, then greeted the legend with a demo tape & a cold beer?

But whether it's the glamour generation of Shania, Trisha, & Wynonna, or the old-guard twangers Dolly, Johnny, Willie, & Loretta, many of these stars have truly lived there songs.
