A missed opportunity for sure Peter. He has many fans over there, I know by the amount of MICKEY GILLEY books I have sent overseas. Mike Robinson in London has collected everything Gilley has recorded. Hugh McCallum also did the same and even visited Gilley in Texas in 1966. I sent his book to Germany, Holland, England, Sweden.
Thanks for info Paul!
I never knew he was in Europe....and it's really sad he never came over for shows.
Probably he had much to do in the States over the decades it seems.
