Baytown Music Center owner pursues lifelong musical dream
Joe Wilburn, owner of Baytown Music Center, reflects on a half century in music and community impact. The 70 year old recalls early family influences, forming The Joyful Sounds in 1973 with wife Lynda and Becky Dodson, and performances at Assemblies of God revivals across the South Texas district and nearby states. The piece notes his Baytown roots, schooling, and 23 year career at Solvay Polymers, ending with a note he left a downsized role for new paths.
