**** UPDATE ON THE "Angels in Waiting"
SCRAPBOOK ****
I interviewed Tammy during Fan Fair, 2006
prior to her performance at Billy Yates' Countriest of the Country benefit event. After our chat, I told her that I
had something to give her that I'd been working on w/ the help of HER fans! :) Then, I gave her the book. She absolutely LOVES
it and appreciates all her fans who took the time to send in stories and letters. She said that she would add into the book
letters that she has in her own collection. I was so excited seeing her reaction when I gave her the book that it never dawned
on me to capture a moment of her w/ the book.
However, I visited Nashville again recently, where we got together for lunch,
after which I took this photo of her holding the scrapbook.
Mine and Tammy's heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who contributed
to the scrapbook - it was definitely a success!! :)

Tammy
is one of the artists on the new compilation album titled The Greatest Country Love Songs!! George Jones, Lorrie Morgan,
Mel Tillis, Pam Tillis, Gene Watson, and Darryl Worley are among country's most recognized voices featured alongside Tammy
on this disc released by Shanachie Records. All thirteen artists offer their renditions of country classics that have stood
the test of time.
Tammy contributes "Help Me Make It Through the Night." Already a true gem of a song in itself, it's Tammy's
spot-on emotional delivery of this Kris Kristofferson-penned ballad that makes this track shine! "It is truly an honor to
be included in this project! So many of my idols are on this album," says the singer/songwriter, "and the fact that I share
the spotlight with them is a dream come true."

Almost five years after her last album was
released, Tammy is letting the world know where she's been with her new album, the aptly titled Where I Am.
Tammy's
previous hits include "I Cry," "Life Happened," and the Top 10 hit "Angels in Waiting, written as a tribute to her two brothers
— both of whom passed away from cystic fibrosis. Tammy continues to receive letters daily from fans who have been touched
by the song's powerful and inspirational message. Where I Am features 12 new songs — all of which she wrote or
co-wrote — with themes ranging from finding love to chasing dreams to salvaging relationships to mending broken spirits.
Tammy says the gospel-flavored title track (also her current single), is about "going through hard times and realizing
that the people who matter won't give up on you. My favorite line is, 'I've had to go through the worst to get to the best
I've ever been.'"
Where I Am is available for purchase on Tammy's website, http://www.tammycochranfans.com, as well as http://www.amazon.com and http://www.cduniverse.com. A portion of the proceeds from each copy sold will go to benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
Tammy has
joined the MySpace world!! (Yours truly helps her maintain the page!!) Y'all can visit her official page at: http://www.myspace.com/TammyCochranFans. Check out her MySpace for new songs and photos!!
Did y'all know?
** Like Garth Brooks, who was once told he'd
be better off making a living back in Oklahoma than staying in Nashville, Tammy didn't listen to advice that she should pack
it in, in Music City when she landed there to peddle her demo tape. "This one guy sat across from me at his desk - and he
said, 'I'm sorry, but you need to go back to Ohio. I wouldn't sign you if you were the last singer in Nashville.'" That was
discouraging but Tammy ended up back in Nashville in 1991 to stay.
** When asked who would be the next Female Vocalist,
Martina McBride named two artists: Tammy Cochran and Rebecca Lynn Howard. I couldn't agree more!!
