Yes he was. I don’t even like country music, but Mel Tillis was one of the few I could actually listen to.

Yep. One of the good guys. RIP
To: All
As everyone doubtless knows, Mel had such a stammer he could hardly speak. Yet, when he sang, the stammer vanished. He thought it had to do with the rhythm of music.
To: jazusamo
N..N..No, N.N.N.Not M.M.M.Mel....
To: sparklite2
He use to appear on Johnny Carson & would laugh at himself stuttering through the interview, but sang great.
To: sparklite2
Yep...Many years back I saw him interviewed a couple of different times and he talked about that.
He said he never had the problem when singing but it was sure evident when he spoke, he just joked about it.

There are several people that I know that stutter but when playing a guitar and singing, the stuttering stopped and they all sang very well.
