Biography

Glover was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in 1939. As a teenager he performed in various local bands, playing guitar before taking up the blues harp. In 1963 he joined John Koerner and Dave Ray to form the blues trio Koerner, Ray & Glover. From 1963 to 1971, either solo or in some combination of the trio, they released at least one album a year. The group never rehearsed together or did much at all together. Ray referred to the group as "Koerner and/or Ray and/or Glover".

Tony Glover (NASCAR)

Anthony Glover (born April 17, 1957 in Kingsport, Tennessee) is an American race mechanic, crew chief, and manager. He has won the Daytona 500 three times as a crew chief in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. He is the son of former NASCAR Late Model Sportsman champion Gene Glover and most recently served as the crew chief of the #33 Circle Sport Chevrolet in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. He is currently the director of NASCAR's Touring Series, a position he has held since July 30, 2013.

Morgan-McClure

Glover's career began at the age of sixteen, working as the crew chief on his father's Late Model Sportsman pit crew. In 1983, he took a similar position with the Winston Cup team Morgan-McClure Motorsports's #4 Chevrolet entry, where he would remain for fourteen years. After seven seasons, Glover and Morgan-McClure earned their first Cup victory with Ernie Irvan at Bristol Motor Speedway in 1990. They followed that up with a victory in the 1991 Daytona 500. After accumulating five more victories together, Irvan departed Morgan-McClure for Robert Yates Racing. He would be replaced for the 1994 season by Sterling Marlin who won the Daytona 500 with Glover in their first outing together. Glover and Marlin would repeat that Daytona victory in 1995 and accumulated four additional wins over the next two seasons.

Famous quotes by Tony Glover:

"Like a sponge"
"I knew Coo Coo basically all of my life. He was a good man, a good race car driver. One of the first memories I had of him was in 1967 when my daddy crashed in a modified race at Nashville and was injured really bad. Coo Coo pulled him out of the car."
"Coo Coo was a tough man who worked hard at everything he did,"
"I see all of that in Sterling."
"Racing wasn't always what it is today. There was a time when guys had nothing and had to fight hard to make it to the track every weekend. Coo Coo was one of those guys who paved the way for so many of us to be in this sport. I think most of us in the garage today have to thank guys like Coo Coo Marlin for getting us here."
"Racing wasn't always what it is today. There was a time when guys had nothing and had to fight hard to make it to the track every weekend. Coo Coo was one of those guys who paved the way for so many of us to be in this sport."
"I have enjoyed working with Sterling all these years, ... He knows what he wants from the cars and he is not afraid to let you know. We always have worked well together and we look forward to the race this weekend in Tennessee."
"Now it's time to look back, ... Maybe it's like his 'Love & Theft' [Dylan's latest studio recording] kinda looks back musically."
"Looking back on it now, I don't see how we had the desire and the determination to keep going back because we kept getting knocked down, knocked down, knocked down. Larry wasn't a quitter and all the guys on the team weren't quitters. We all wanted to put our mark somewhere."
"Three calls were received in the space of three minutes."

Maybe

by: Dana Glover

Here I go climbing a mountain
It's much too high for me
And here I go crossing the ocean
Losing myself, getting lost in the sea
Where did I go wrong
When did I stop singing a love song
Maybe I was wrong
Maybe I was blind and could not see
Maybe you were never the one
Maybe you were not the one for me
Maybe
Here I go posing a question
Not sure of what I'll hear
Here I go refusing to let you answer
Until I make myself so very clear
We can take what was wrong
We can end these words in a love song
Maybe if we try
Maybe we can start again when we've already said good-bye
Maybe we can still be what we always dreamed that we could be
And I know that I was wrong to let you go
But I'm still holding on to let you know
Maybe I was wrong
Maybe I was blind and could not see
Oh but baby I'll be strong
And I'll sacrifice the very breath I breathe
If I could only hear you say to me
When I ask you if you think you still love me
