This is a list of notable events in country music that took place in 1969. ==Events== * January 4- Dolly Parton becomes a member of The Grand Ole Opry. * January 29 — ''The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour'' premieres on CBS, for what will be a three-year run. * February 16 - George Jones and Tammy Wynette marry in Ringgold, Georgia, after telling others that their marriage was in August 1968. They quickly earn the titles such as "The First Couple of Country Music," "Country's Sweethearts," and "The President and First Lady." * February 24 — Johnny Cash records his second live album behind prison walls in as many years at San Quentin State Prison. The resulting album is ''At San Quentin'', and contains his hit "A Boy Named Sue." The concert is also taped for television broadcast. * June 7 — ''The Johnny Cash Show'' premieres on ABC; the series will run through 1971. * June 15 — The summer replacement series ''Hee Haw'' airs for the first time on CBS. The first guests to Kornfield Kounty — for what will be a 23-year run, the bulk of which will be in syndication — are Charley Pride and Loretta Lynn. * October — The Country Music Association airs its awards program live for the first time (the previous year's ceremony was taped, with the show airing a few weeks later). The annual awards show — at the time airing in October on NBC — quickly becomes one of country music's most eagerly anticipated events of the year. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1969 in country music」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
