- Ronnie Reno
- Ronnie Reno and his band, The Reno Tradition, keep the legendary bluegrass style of Don Reno and Red Smiley alive and popular, but Ronnie expertly adds his own modern touch to his music. Lynn Beckman has worked various shows with these guys, and has recorded a joint project with them. The joint CD is called "CONNECTED: GRASSLAND TO GLORYLAND," and is on ANCHOR-CROSS RECORDS. Several songs include Ronnie singing harmony with Lynn and pickin' some super guitar licks. Lynn and Ronnie also recorded songs on another Lynn Beckman CD project called, "LOOKIN' DOWN THE ROAD." Included on the CD is the world acclaimed "YOU ARE MY FLOWER," with Ronnie's hot-lick pickin' and some tight harmony singing. Ronnie's father was banjo legend Don Reno (Reno & Smiley and The Tennessee Cut-Ups). Pick up on Ronnie's great career (as a youth member of Reno and Smiley's Tennessee Cup-Ups; of the Grand Ole Opry's Osborne Brothers' band for 5 years; and as a member of the Strangers, Merle Haggard's band for 9 years).

- Billy Walker, Grand Ole Opry Legend
- It is with many fond memories that we reflect on the life and career of "The Tall Texan," Billy Walker, his wife Bettie, and two members of The Tennessee Walker Band, Danny Patton (lead guitarist) and Charlie Lilly (bass guitarist). All four were killed in a tragic road accident near Ft. Deposit, Alabama (just south of Montgomery) early Sunday morning, May 21, 2006, on their way home from a show near Gulf Shores, Alabama. All of them were special friends.... we miss them and cherish the hope and promises of that great reunion day when we shall join together to sing and play Heavenly Harmonies in that land where there is no sorrow and no death or pain. Lynn Beckman made many appearances with Billy Walker and The Tennessee Walker Band including the world famous WSM Radio Midnite Jamboree from the Ernest Tubb Record Shop's Texas Troubadour Theatre in Nashville, TN. See the photo gallery for pictures. Read all about Billy's extraordinary career on his website. His accomplishments not only include his long-standing membership with The Grand Ole Opry, but his career includes years of an outstanding nationally syndicated TV show, his connections to other super-stars like Elvis Presley, Red Foley, and many others, and no less than 30 number 1 country hit records and somewhere around 100 charted songs. His latest Gospel album, "Back On The Mountain Again" contains "For Me," a Gospel song written by Lynn Beckman that has gained recognition around the world---with feedback messages on how the song has touched lives and blessed hearts from as far away as southern Africa.
