During their eleven-year association, Tillis recorded several of Cannon's songs, including the popular “I Believe In You,” which went to the top of the charts and was also recorded by Englebert Humperdink. During his six-year stint at Mercury, Cannon was instrumental in bringing such stars as Twain, Cyrus and Sammy Kershaw to the label. Cannon produced several Number One hits for Kershaw during this period, including “She Don't Know She's Beautiful,” “National Working Woman's Holiday,” and “Cadillac Style”, as well as several more Kershaw hits which reached the Top Five position on the charts. Along with his work with Sammy Kershaw, George Jones (“High Tech Redneck”), John Michael Montgomery (“The Little Girl”), Chely Wright (“Single White Female”), and a 17 year run as producer for Kenny Chesney (“Young”, “A Lot Of Things Different”, “She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy”, “There Goes My Life”, “The Good Stuff”, “Somewhere With You”, “You And Tequila”), Cannon has also produced projects for Jamey Johnson (“The Dollar” & “Living For A Song – A tribute To Hank Cochran”) Sara Evans (“No Place That Far”) and Joe Nichols (“Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off”). Cannon has been the producer of choice for several recent recording projects by his hero Willie Nelson which Cannon proclaims to be one of the major highlights of his career. His own impressive personal song catalog includes classic hits like Vern Gosdin's “Set 'Em Up Joe,” “Dream of Me”, and “I'm Still Crazy,” Billy Ray Cyrus' “She's Not Cryin' Anymore,” and George Strait's “I've Come To Expect It From You,” and, most recently, Strait's record breaking 53rd number one song “Give It Away” which was named Song Of The Year at the 2007 Academy Of Country Music Awards.

Drinking Green Tea - Green tea is thought to be the healthiest beverage on the planet and has become renowned for its many various health benefits. Used in China since the 8th century and is made from un-oxidized leaves of the Camellia sinensis bush. Green tea has long been used in many cultures for its various medicinal properties. In Indian culture, it’s used to control Rafe Van Hoy Brady Seals By Elizabeth Lilian bleeding, support wound healing. It also aids digestion, improves mental and heart health, and regulates body temperature. It’s full of antioxidants and nutrients and has a powerful effect on health. The leaves used to make green tea contain bioactive compounds and phytonutrients like flavonoid and catechins. They are strong antioxidants that can reduce inflammation created by free radicals that can cause premature aging and various diseases. One specific catechin found in green tea is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which has been a popular focus of study due to its potential health benefits. EGCG is thought to support healthy arteries and lower ‘bad’ cholesterol. It can also reduce platelet activity that can cause blood clots, and even protect the cells against cancer by suppressing the production of tumors. Green tea also contains caffeine and the amino acid L-theanine, two compounds that can improve brain function. Regularly drinking green tea has also been linked to a reduced risk of stroke, diabetes, heart disease and Alzheimer’s. To maximize the benefits of green tea, aim to drink 2 to 3 cups per day.
