"Cliffie's latest book, co-authored with his wife, provides the nitty-gritty details about how to use local talent shows to push your dreams into reality. Coverage is thorough; includes how to prepare for performances, deal with stage fright, and the ins and outs of artist financing, managers, and audiences. This book is simply a goldmine of information as well as a tome of encouragement…Recommended for music and/or vocational guidance collections in academic and public libraries."

"Divorce Me C.O.D." (cowritten by Stone with Merle Travis - reached #1 in Billboard, 1946)

"Dixie Cannonball" and "It's My Lazy Day" (both performed in Gene Autry movies).

New offerings include "I Only See You" and "Dancing With a Memory" (both recently hitting the top charts in Australia by other artists).

And the most requested song at his concerts, "A Little Sooner" - written and poignantly sung by Cliffie and his wife, Joan Carol.
