I'm Naomi Judd's husband. It deals with her hepatitis and ends with her sending Wynonna on her own. His name is Larry Strickland and he's got a slow, laconic, quiet quality to him. He's a bass singer; he sang for The Stamps, a quartet who backed up Elvis. I have to take my shirt off in two weeks so I have to do situps, tone up my boney self -- I should be hanging in the garage between a rake and a hoe.

For me, one of the fun things was, Larry has a real deep voice, so [speaking with a high Southern accent] I got to do the audition like that and [lowering his voice] turn it down and down and down until I finally got to where it should be. I guess [Naomi] checked me out a little bit. She saw the screen test and then hummed and hawed. And then I met Larry, and he said, "We used to do something called `low talking'. When you do something called `low talking' to a woman you haven't met before, they just melt."
