Thirty Three Top Forty Country Hits

David Pedruska grew up in Wisconsin, and had a short career as a semi-pro baseball player.  He suffered an arm injury, and his ball career was over.   He always enjoyed singing, so he decided to try a career in Country Music.

Baseball’s loss was Country Music’s gain!  During his Country Music years, he scored thirty three top forty hits, and recorded more than seventy albums.

He was known around the world for his distinctive style, and his many hits saluting truck drivers everywhere.

During the 1980’s, he was elected to the Nashville Teamsters Truck Drivers Union, and was given a solid gold membership card.

Perhaps you know David Pedruska by another name… Dave Dudley.
