## Summary

Bill Anderson was born in Columbia, South Carolina in 1937. He started playing guitar at eight and performed on local radio as a teenager. In 1958, he signed with Decca Records and released his debut album, 'City Lights.' His 1962 song 'Old Rugged Cross' became a country standard and found its way into Christian hymnals. Other songs from that period include '8 X 10' and '500 Miles Away From Home.'...
