To Yah Shure:

Your explanation is very plausible. Quite fitting Bowen's hit was titled "I'm Stickin' With You".

Andy, I'm only speculating, but Conway may have wanted to follow MCA Nashville's head honcho Jimmy Bowen to Elektra/Asylum, even though Bowen only stayed briefly during his first tour of duty at MCA. Conway likely followed him to E/A Nashville once his MCA contract expired.

Bowen remained in charge following WEA's decision to transfer E/A's entire country roster to the Warner Brothers label, then returned to MCA Nashville as president in '83. It was probably another case of Twitty waiting out his contract before re-signing with MCA some three years later.

Not long afterward, Bowen bolted once again, this time for Capitol Nashville, but Conway remained with MCA.

Nice comp. Wow, that was a good career period for Mr. Twitty.

Does anyone know why he was with MCA for a long time, left for WEA, and then returned to MCA for the rest of his output? The obvious guess would be "better offers", but I was wondering if it might've had something to do with the departure of a key executive.
