I'm thinking in the area of 35. A while back someone asked who had played on the most number one records by the same artist. It looks like that would make you the winner.
John also played on a lot of Conways 49. Hag was 2nd but what made that so different was he also wrote a bunch of his.

This is the link to the thread you made reference to. Obviously, you were wrong then and I think by your own figures you are wrong now. John Hughey personally stated that he played on nearly 50 #1 hits with Conway Twitty. I believe Lloyd Green counted well over 40 #1 Conway hits that John had played on. Again, I take their word for it as they were there and you weren't. |

Mike, as I understand it Conway has had the most at 49. On a local radio station, they said when "She'll Leave You With A Smile" (which I think is a remake of "One Step At A Time") went number one he broke the long standing record. Unless the station is wrong...those are the facts.
Anyone else have any info or heard about this.
Bob.

| Bob, I'm sure if you email John Hughey, he can give you the stats on what Conway had but the 49 number sounds close to what Lloyd counted as Conway's #1 hits. |

| Hi Bob, I heard that George Strait was the new 'Champ' as of this week. It was also in Country Weekly magazine. 49 for Conway and 50 for George. |
