Church and music! These are the first two things I remember as a child. Both molded my life and inspired me to try to become a better person. I owe these beginnings to my grandmother, Juanita Tharpe. Most people
called her the "Singing Grandma". But, I called her Mama. This album is a tribute to her.
She played several instruments and was blessed with a wonderful and powerful voice for singing. Or discipline. I promise you...I knew both! The songs I have recorded are a compilation of songs Mama sang and recorded. I trust you will be blessed as you listen. My favorite is "Homesick for Heaven". She and I recorded this song about 40 years ago. And through modern technology we were able to consolidate our old version with my new one, thanks to Wayne Freeman, owner of FreMark studios. During our youth, we traveled many miles together playing and singing at churches all across North Louisiana. I love you, my friend. And special thanks to my wife Carolyn, who has persevered 47 years with me while I've done my music. I love you!
I’ve made friends in all of my travels who I respect so much, and each one is so special to me....not just as a musician, or a writer, or a singer, but as a person. And music is the bridge that brought us all here to this place, Charlie Wood and Friends.
