To many of his fans, country music singer Johnny PayCheck was the epitome of the hell-raising outlaw singer.

" PayCheck broke onto the country music charts in 1965 with his first bonafide "A-11.
He also proved himself to be an adept songwriter, writing Tammy Wynette's debut hit, 1966's "Apartment No. 9.
" But it wasn't until 1971 that he truly arrived on the scene with "She's All I Got", which peaked at No. 2 that December on Billboard magazine's country singles chart.
His follow-up, the raw, soulful "Someone to Give My Love To" from the spring of 1972, also made the top five. Other hits followed, including "Mr.
Lovemaker" (1973), "Song and Dance Man" (1974), and 1977's "Slide off Your Satin Sheets" and "I'm the Only Hell (Mama Ever Raised). " But it was his blue-collar anthem, "Take This Job and Shove It", that made Johnny A. hero to the working class. "Take This Job and Shove It" was PayCheck's only No.

In 2002, a PayCheck compilation album, "The Soul & The Edge: The Best of Johnny PayCheck," was released.
