(Randy changed to his current moniker when he signed with Warner Bros. Records, which suggested that "Travis" might sound a little . . . well, fleeter...
...when she put up $10,000 for his first two singles, released by a local label out of Shreveport, La. They also shared a strong sense of Randy's destiny and in 1981 were already making the rounds and plugging songs in Nashville. Finally, in 1985, a Warner Bros.
