Scotty, a 13-year-old boy, picked a bunch of newspapers while going back home. He was going to use those newspapers in lighting the fire in the woodstove. On reaching home, he began rifling through it and stopped dead at his track when he saw something really ODD. It was a Flexi disc. He rushed to listen to its content. The boy skipped a heartbeat when he heard what the record had to say. This record literally changed his life. Later on, that particular object turned his life completely. This amazing incident took place in Galax of Virginia.

Scotty

Scotty belonged to a very poor family and that is why he used to work even though he was only 13 years old. He was a young boy with big responsibilities. As the boy did not have a father, he had assumed all the responsibilities of his mother and the sister.

Scotty Landreth Story

Galax

Scotty and his family lived in Galax, Virginia. It is a beautiful independent city located in the southwestern part of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Interestingly, this place is also famous as a hub of old days music and musicians. This culturally rich city was going to be famous once again.

Working Hard

Scotty Landreth Story

His mother Charlene Price used to work in a grocery store. She and Scotty were toiling every day to bring food to the house. The family would see each other at night. They had a fixed routine. After coming home from work, his mother would make dinner and the boy would light the stove.

Introvert Guy

Scotty was an introvert who would spend most of his time working. And when home he would help his mother in household work. The boy did not have time for himself. Unfortunately, he did not have enough time to study. But soon his life was going to change because of some trashy newspapers.      

Sweet Home

They used to live in a house off a farm. As the area was open from all the sides, their house would get really cold in winters. Unfortunately, they did not have any electrical device to keep them warm.

Not A Close Family

Scotty had a sister too. But they were not very close as they never got much time to interact with each other. They were a family of strangers. A very quiet and introvert family who lived away from local settlements. They would not keep much contact with their neighbors. They preferred minding their own business
