9/10/2007 Stephen L. Betts Garth Brooks has never shied away from giving proper credit to the songwriters whose material he records.  At Friday's (9/7) No. 1 party in Nashville for the men who wrote his chart-topping "More Than A Memory" -- Lee Brice, Billy Montana and Kyle Jacobs, Garth told those gathered at the Country Music Hall of Fame, As far as the writers in this town, we cannot protect the seed enough. Fight for the rights of your songwriters and your publishers, because as much as nobody else wants to hear this, radio, record labels are nothing at all without the songwriters.” "More Than A Memory" set a record with its historic debut atop the Billboard chart.
