There's more women stars in Nashville all the time. They're proving they can do the job the same as a man.

The most successful of Lynn's siblings on the Country charts is Crystal Gayle. She married Oliver Vanetta Lynn commonly known as "Doolittle" "Doo" or "Mooney" (for running moonshine) on January 10 1948. As a songwriter Lynn believed no topic was off limits as long as it spoke to other women and many of her songs were autobiographical.

She became a part of the country music scene in Nashville in the 1960s and in 1967 charted her first of 16 number-one hits (out of 70 charted songs as a solo artist and a duet partner) that include "Don't Come Home A' Drinkin' (With Lovin' on Your Mind)" "You Ain't Woman Enough" "Fist City" and "Coal Miner's Daughter". She taught herself to play and when Loretta Lynn was 24 on her wedding anniversary he encouraged her to become a singer. She moved to Washington state with her husband Oliver Vanetta Lynn Jr.
