Aaron Tippin Biography
Aaron Tippin was part of the commercial explosion of new
traditionalist country in the early '90s, making his name with a
mixture of macho, rowdy honky tonkers, sentimental ballads, and
patriotic working-man's anthems. Tippin was born in Pensacola, FL, in
1958 and grew up mostly on a family farm near Greer, SC, where he first
started singing to pass the time while doing chores. He started playing
guitar at age ten but also inherited a love of flying from his father,
who'd worked as a pilot prior to becoming a farmer. Tippin himself
earned his pilot's license at 15 and began flying professionally before
the age of 20. He was studying to become a commercial airline pilot
when the industry took a major downturn, which convinced him to return
to music. He played the local honky tonk circuit and worked on his
songwriting while holding a series of blue-collar day jobs.
Unfortunately, his marriage broke up, and with nothing to lose, he
finally moved to Nashville in 1986. He landed a job as a staff
songwriter at the legendary Acuff-Rose firm, where his compositions
were recorded by the likes of Charley Pride, Mark Collie, and David
Ball, among others. In 1990, his demo tape landed him a contract with
RCA.
Tippin's debut album, You've Got to Stand for Something, was released
in 1991; its title cut became a Top Ten smash in the wake of the
Persian Gulf War, and Tippin was invited along on Bob Hope's USO tour.
His second album, 1992's Read Between the Lines, was a million-selling
Top Ten smash, producing three Top Ten singles in I Wouldn't Have It
Any Other Way, My Blue Angel, and his first number one, There Ain't
Nothing Wrong With the Radio. 1993's The Call of the Wild underlined
Tippin's penchant for rabble-rousing anthems like Honky Tonk
Superman, the Top Ten Working Man's Ph.D., and the Top 20 title cut.
The following year's Lookin' Back at Myself was less successful, but
1995's Tool Box returned him to the top of the singles charts with
That's as Close as I'll Get to Loving You. Tippin also remarried that
year.
When Tippin's follow-up singles failed to duplicate their predecessor's
popularity, his relationship with RCA began to fray. They eventually
parted ways, and it wasn't until 1998 that Tippin managed to score
another deal, this time with Disney subsidiary Lyric Street Records. He
co-produced his label debut, What This Country Needs, which was
released later that year and returned him to the Top Ten via the single
For You I Will. The follow-up, 2000's People Like Us, became the
first Tippin album to make the country Top Five, thanks to the number
one smash Kiss This, a song co-written by Tippin's wife Thea. The
Christmas album A December to Remember followed in 2001, and Tippin
returned with a proper follow-up, Stars & Stripes, in 2002. The
post-September 11 anthem Where the Stars and Stripes and the Eagle
Fly was a crossover smash, not only reaching number two on the country
charts but also climbing into the pop Top 20. ~ Steve Huey, All Music
