IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE, NOW. BUT, DEE ALLEN, WAS ONCE AN OAK RIDGE BOY!!!  IT WAS NOVEMBER, 1995, AND THE OAK RIDGE BOYS WERE ALREADY IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY BUSY TOUR SCHEDULE, AND THEY WERE IN DESPERATE NEED OF A FILL-IN BARITONE SINGER.   DEE WAS BUSY BUSSING TABLES AT A LOCAL RESTAURANT IN HENDERSONVILLE, TENNESSEE, WHEN HE GOT THE MESSAGE FROM HIS MOTHER, NORAH LEE ALLEN, TO GO HOME, PACK HIS BAGS, AND HEAD FOR THE AIRPORT, BECAUSE HIS FATHER NEEDED HIM.  WITHOUT ANY HESITATION, WHATSOEVER, HE DID JUST THAT.  DEE RECALLS THE DETAILS, HIMSELF, HERE.

HE DIDN'T HAVE TO DO IT, EVERYNIGHT, THOUGH, HIS BROTHER-IN-LAW, PAUL MARTIN, WHO LATER, BECAME THE BASS GUITAR PLAYER FOR THE MIGHTY OAKS' BAND, ALSO TOOK HIS TURN FILLING IN, WHENEVER POSSIBLE.  THEY EACH HELD THEIR OWN, AND DID A GREAT JOB.  THEY BOTH FELT HONORED TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO BE AN OAK RIDGE BOY, FOR BRIEF STINTS IN THEIR ALREADY SUCCESSFUL CAREERS.
