Re: Apartment # 9
Jon says: BMI's searchable database Then Joe says: look it up in the BMI website. Sheesh, I shoulda thought of that. Proves to be a treasure trove, killed 45 minutes there just goofing off. Then Jon says: lists it as Paycheck and Bobby (not Billy) Austin Doh! Of course it's Bobby, I musta been thinking of a Steve Earle song. Thanks to both you gents for the advice (and Mike too for the effort). For my purposes I'll go with BMI and Austin/Paycheck. I noticed that BMI lists Owen Publications of Bakersfield as the publisher, which may explain how Fuzzy gets attached to the song in some citations, but their database has no listing for a Fern Foley.

Apartment #9
Need a little help with some research here, please. I'd thought that Tammy Wynette's debut single, Apartment #9, was written by Johnny Paycheck and Billy Austin. Yet I recently saw it credited to Fuzzy Owen and Fern Foley, and to Owen/Foley/Paycheck. Anyone know what gives here? I just want to get it right for something I'm working on. Thanking the collective wisdom in advance. M. Moore
Re: Apartment #9
According to the CD Paycheck, the Little Darlin Years, the song was written by Paycheck and Austin. If you get no further I'll check my Billboard CD Rom after I finish dinner.

Paycheck-F. Foley-C. Owen, but BMI's searchable database at http://bmi.com/home_rep.html lists it as Paycheck and Bobby (not Billy) Austin, so that's probably a safer bet. Trying to track down some of this stuff will give you fits, even when it's relatively recent (like "Apartment Number Nine") and it seems like it ought to be cut and dried.
