“Good times are always had at Larry’s Country Diner and I’ve been a huge fan for a long time,” says Allen. “It felt great to be on the Diner set with Larry and all the amazing cast! They made me feel right at home. Can’t wait to come back for another heapin’ helpin’ of their genuine down home love and laughter.”
On October 15th, Allen was presented with a resolution from Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland and the Memphis City Council for her contribution to country music as part of her 40th anniversary in the music industry. During the presentation during the city council meeting, Deborah was surprised by an announcement from Chairman Kemp Conrad that October 15, 2019 was officially declared “Deborah Allen Day” in Memphis, Tennessee.
“When I was just a little girl confiding to my mother my dreams of becoming a singer, an entertainer or an actress, she took me and my dreams to heart. I can still hear her soft southern voice emphatically saying, “Remember Deborah, you’re from Memphis, the home of the Blues and the King of Rock and Roll,” remembers Deborah. “As I listened, I was mesmerized by the deep sense of Memphis heritage she planted in my soul. I am so proud to be from Memphis and extremely honored to be recognized in such a special way by Mayor Strickland, Kemp Conrad and the Memphis City Council. My heart is full.”
Deborah has penned more than 2,000 compositions for hundreds of artists, including smash hits by LeAnn Rimes, Brooks & Dunn, Patty Loveless, Conway Twitty, Tanya Tucker, Janie Fricke, John Conlee, Isaac Hayes, Diana Ross, Sheena Easton, Fleetwood Mac and more. On her own, Deborah climbed the charts with hits such as “I’ve Been Wrong Before,” “I Hurt For You,” “Rock Me,” “If You’re Not Gonna Love Me,” “Wrong Side Of Love,” “Break These Chains” and her signature song, “Baby I Lied.”
