Individual Bio
Nashville songwriter Hank Cochran penned dozens of country hits during the 1960s, '70s, and '80s, including "I Fall to Pieces" ( Patsy Cline), "The Chair" ( George Strait), "Don't Touch Me" ( Jeannie Seely), "Don't You Ever Get Tired of Hurtin' Me?" ( Ray Price and Ronnie Milsap), "It's Not Love (But It's Not Bad)" ( Merle Haggard), "Make the World Go Away" ( Eddy Arnold), and "She's Got You" ( Cline again). Cochran balanced music and lyric chores evenly when writing co-compositions with Nashville legends like Harlan Howard, Vern Gosdin, and Dean Dillon. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
