He had his own television show on WSAV-TV in Georgia and began his recording career as an artist in Houston, Texas, on Backbeat Records. He had his 30-minute country music show on KFVS-TV. The Foster and Rice team was signed to a publishing contract with Jack Clement and Bill Hall (Jack & Bill) where they became known as "The Song Factory" for their incredible string of hits.
