Chanteur et fiddler Country US né Roy Claxton Acuff, le 15 septembre 1903 à Maynardsville (Tennessee). Roy Acuff débuta en 1930 dans le
Doc Howers Medecine Show, puis il joua avec les Tennesseans sur la radio WNWX de Knoxville. Premier enregistrement en
1923 pour Arc Records. Dès 1938, Roy est devenu membre du Grand Ole Opry de
Nashville (Tennessee). En 1946, il changea le nom du groupe en Smoky Mountains Boys et signa chez Columbia. En 1962, Roy Acuff fut le premier membre vivant élu au Country Music Hall Of Fame. Roy Acuff est mort à l'age de 89
ans le 23 novembre 1992.
Roy Acuff
was called the King of Country Music, and for more than 60 years he lived up to
that title. If any performer embodied country music, it was Roy Acuff.
Throughout his career, Acuff was a champion for traditional country values,
enforcing his beliefs as a performer, a music publisher, and as the Grand Master
of the Grand Ole Opry. Acuff was the first country music superstar after the
death of Jimmie Rodgers, pioneering an
influential vocal style that complemented the spare, simple songs he was
performing. Generations of artists, from
Hank Williams to George Jones,
have been influenced by Acuff, and countless others have paid respect to him. At
the time of his death in 1992, he was still actively involved in the Grand Ole
Opry, and was as popular as ever.
Originally, Acuff didn't plan to be a singer. Born in the small town of
Maynardville, TN, in 1903, Acuff sang in the church choir as a schoolboy, but he
was more interested in sports, particularly baseball. Not only was he attracted
to the sport, he had a wild streak — after his family moved to Knoxville, he was
frequently arrested for fighting. Acuff continued to concentrate on playing ball,
eventually becoming strong enough to earn a tryout for the major leagues.
However, that tryout never took place. Before he had a chance to play, he was
struck by a severe sunstroke while he was on a fishing trip; after the sunstroke,
Acuff suffered a nervous breakdown. While he was recovering, he decided that a
career in baseball was no longer possible, so he decided to become an
entertainer. He began to learn the fiddle and became an apprentice of Doc Hauer,
a local medicine show man.
While traveling with the medicine show, Acuff learned how to be a performer — he
learned how to sing, how to imitate, how to entertain, how to put on a show.
Soon, Acuff joined the Tennessee Crackerjacks, who had a regular slot on
Knoxville radio station WROL. Although he was performing frequently, he wasn't
making any significant headway, failing to become a star in Tennessee. One song
changed that situation — "The Great Speckled Bird," an old gospel tune that had
become popular with the Church of God sect. After another radio entertainer
wrote the words out to the song, Acuff began performing it in his shows. Quickly,
he became popular throughout the eastern part of Tennessee and was asked to
record the song by ARC, a record label with national distribution. Acuff headed
north to Chicago for a recording session, which resulted in 20 different songs.
In addition to "The Great Speckled Bird," he recorded "Steamboat Whistle Blues"
and "The Wabash Cannonball," another Tennessee standard that featured the singer
imitating the sound of a train whistle; he also made a handful of risqué numbers
during these sessions, which were released under the name the Bang Boys.
In 1938, the Grand Ole Opry invited Acuff to audition for the show. During the
show, he sang "The Great Speckled Bird" and became an instant hit, prompting the
Opry to hire him full-time. Before he was given his regular slot, the Opry
insisted that he change the name of his band to the Smoky Mountain Boys. The
following year, Acuff reassembled his band, with the most notable addition being
Bashful Brother Oswald (Pete Kirby), a dobro player who sang high harmonies.
Roy Acuff became a national superstar during the '40s, scoring a long string of
hit records, which included the classics "The Wreck on the Highway," "The
Precious Jewel," and "Beneath That Lonely Mound of Clay," among many others.
During this time, he discovered that there was a potential gold mine in music
publishing. Acuff had printed his own songbook, which sold a staggering 100,000
copies. Publishers in New York tried to acquire the rights to his songs, but the
success of the songbook convinced Acuff to hold on to the songs and seek out the
help of Fred Rose, a professional songwriter and pianist working in Chicago. The
pair founded Acuff-Rose Publications in October 1942, using Acuff's songs as its
base; Rose also added his songs, including "Faded Love," "Deep Water," and "Blue
Eyes Crying in the Rain." Acuff-Rose was an immediate success, and over the next
two decades many of the most popular songs and songwriters were the property of
the company, including the songs of Hank
Williams, the Louvin Brothers,
Don Gibson,
Roy Orbison,
the Everly Brothers,
John D. Loudermilk, Boudleaux &
Felice Bryant, and Redd Stewart &
Pee Wee King's "Tennessee Waltz."
In the late '40s, Acuff continued to rule the country charts, as well as scoring
a number of pop crossovers ("The Prodigal Son," "I'll Forgive You, But I Can't
Forget"). For most of the '50s, he concentrated on touring — he didn't have a
single charting record between 1947 and 1958, returning with the Top Ten hit
"Once More," as well as two other Top 20 singles, "So Many Times" and "Come and
Knock." In 1962, he became the first living performer to be inducted to the
Country Music Hall of Fame. The '60s yielded some hits, yet he continued to
concentrate on touring; by the end of the decade, he decided to leave the road,
staying at the Grand Ole Opry.
The beginning of the '80s was a difficult period for Acuff, as he experienced
the death of his wife and several longtime bandmembers, including pianist Jimmie
Riddle and fiddler Howdy Forrester. In 1987, he released his final charting
record, an inspirational duet with
Charlie Louvin called "The Precious Jewel."
As his health began to decline in the late '80s, Acuff built a house near the
Opry so he could greet friends and fans. He passed away in 1992, leaving behind
a legacy that isn't limited to his music. Through his records, his performances,
and Acuff-Rose, Roy Acuff has had an enormous effect on shaping the role of
country music in the 20th century; it is hard to imagine the music without him.
