Neal McCoy, Linda Davis & Michael Martin Murphey Join Texas Music Hall Of Fame

Neal McCoy will join fellow Texan natives Linda Davis and western music singer-songwriter Michael Martin Murphey as 2009 inductees into the hall of fame venue in Carthage on Aug. 15, according to Carolyn Moore, venue spokeswoman.

McCoy has 10 studio albums to his credit, including 1994's No Doubt About It and 1995's You Gotta Love That, which both reached platinum status. His 1997 greatest hits album was also platinum.

Davis, born in the Dotson community in 1962, recorded five major-label studio albums in her solo career. A 1993 duet with Reba McEntire, "Does He Love You," won both singers a Grammy Award for best country vocal collaboration.

Murphey, born in 1945 in Oak Cliff, is already a Western Music Association Hall of Fame member. He has more than two dozen studio albums to his credit, with two of his singles reaching the top of Billboard country music charts.
