Bill Anderson Celebrates 65 Opry Years | Country Music News

Bill Anderson celebrates a historic 65-year Opry membership—making him the longest-serving continuous member ever—at age 88, skipping the official anniversary to honor his favorite Saturday nights with a special show featuring legends and new friends like Lorrie Morgan and the Isaacs. Though he’s retired from touring, he misses fans and music but cherishes home life with his eight grandchildren, one of whom is already pursuing songwriting. Still deeply involved at the Opry, he mentors newcomers and embraces the institution’s future. But his true legacy? He’s proud he came to Nashville as a songwriter—and that’s what he’ll be remembered for. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
