1958 жылғы ел музыкасының ерекше оқиғалары

This is a list of notable events in country music that took place in the year 1958.

January 1 — Johnny Cash performs at San Quentin Prison. One of the audience members is Merle Haggard, in the midst of a two year prison term for burglary. February — Struggling singer songwriter Don Gibson finally gets a career break when his first major hit, "Oh Lonesome Me" reaches No. 1 on Billboard's "C&W Best Sellers in Stores" and "Most Played C&W by Jockeys" charts. The flip side of the single is "I Can't Stop Loving You," which went on to be recorded more than 700 times. Gibson is considered by many to be one of the originators of the Nashville Sound, a form of country music that uses pop music styled arrangements (such as orchestrated strings) rather than traditional honky tonk sounds. March — BMI opens its Nashville office, headed by Frances Preston. March 24 — Elvis Presley is inducted into the United States Army at the Memphis Draft Board, thus beginning his two years of service. May — The fledgling career of Jerry Lee Lewis is rocked by scandal when his marriage to second cousin Myra Gale Brown becomes public. A British tour is cancelled, and Lewis' career goes into decline until 1968, when he begins concentrating on country music. October 13 — Billboard discontinues the "C&W Best Sellers in Stores" and "Most Played C&W by Jockeys" charts. Starting with the October 20 issue, there is one all encompassing "Hot C&W Sides" chart. The new chart has 30 positions, and "City Lights" by Ray Price is the first No. 1 song. November — The Country Music Association is founded to promote country music. Harry Stone, the former station manager of WSM, is named executive director. November — Conway Twitty begins a remarkable career in rock and roll, with his hit, "It's Only Make Believe." The song – which contains all the Twitty hallmarks – skyrockets to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the fall, and begins a string of hits that continues through the early 1960s. Twitty makes the switch to country in the mid 1960s. Although " Make Believe" is never a country hit, the song has become a country standard in the years since Twitty became a country giant. December 26 — Johnny Cash tops a country and western concert at the Showboat Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada; also appearing are Tex Ritter and the Sons of the Pioneers.
