Chanteur Country US né le 15 mars 1927 à Maynardsville (Tennessee), Carl Smith a débuté dans les années quarante et a enregistré un premier single en 1950 à la Columbia Records.
Proche de la Carter Family, il épousa
June Carter. Ils auront une fille
Carlene Carter. Après quatre ans
de vie commune, le couple s'est séparé, Carl continuant de s'affirmer comme l'un
des grands de la Country Music avec son groupe, les Tunesmiths. Vedette de la télévision et du cinéma, il quittera Columbia en 1974 pour Hickory. Vivant dans son ranch du Tennessee, Carl Smith, Cowboy aux traits burinés et vocaliste d'envergure,
a continué à enregistrer avec bonheur de la bonne Country Music sans prétention.
Retiré du circuit en 1979 pour se consacrer à son élevage de chevaux, il est
décédé le 16 janvier 2010 à Franklin (Tennesse).
Known as Mr.
Country, Carl Smith was one of the most popular honky tonkers of the '50s,
racking up over 30 Top Ten hits over the course of the decade. Smith was also
able to sustain that popularity into the late '70s, during which time he had a
charting single for every year except one. Smith had a talent for singing smooth
ballads which polished the rough edges of hardcore country. Nevertheless, he
could sing pure honky tonk with the best of them, and his hardest country was
made tougher by the addition of a drum kit. Smith was one of the very first
country artists to regularly perform with a drummer, and though it earned him
criticism at the time, the hard-driving sound of those up-tempo numbers proved
to be influential. Smith also occasionally dabbled in Western swing, and as he
continued to record, he delved deeper into the genre. Since he specialized in
honky tonk ballads and Western swing, Smith rarely crossed over into the pop
audience. Still, he was one of the most popular and best-known country singers
of his era, recording several classics — including "Let's Live a Little," "Let
Old Mother Nature Have Her Way," "This Orchard Means Goodbye," "Cut Across
Shorty," "Loose Talk," "(When You Feel Like You're in Love) Don't Just Stand
There," and "Hey Joe!" — appearing in a handful of movies, and hosting his own
television show. By the time he retired in the early '80s, he had hit the
country charts nearly 100 times.
Smith was born and raised in Maynardsville, TN, which was also the hometown of
Roy Acuff. As a child, Smith idolized
Acuff,
Ernest Tubb, and Bill Monroe. When
he was a teenager, he taught himself how to play guitar. According to legend, he
bought his first guitar with money he earned by selling flower seeds. At the age
of 15, he was singing in the San Francisco-based country band Kitty Dibble and
Her Dude Ranch Ranglers. Two years later, he learned to play string bass and
spent his summer vacation working at WROL, a radio station in Knoxville. After
Smith finished high school, he briefly served in the U.S. Navy before heading
back home.
Once he returned to Tennessee, he continued to perform at WROL, usually playing
bass for Skeets Williamson and Molly O'Day.
Eventually, he began singing as well, and one of his colleagues at the station
sent an acetate of Smith's singing to WSM in Nashville. WSM signed Smith to a
contract, and he began working for the station and singing at the Grand Ole Opry.
By 1950, Columbia Records signed Smith to a recording contract. His first hit, "Let's
Live a Little," arrived in 1951, climbing all the way to number two. Over the
course of the year, he racked up no less than three other hits, including the
classic "If Teardrops Were Pennies" and his first number one single, "Let Old
Mother Nature Have Her Way." Also that year, he married
June Carter, the daughter of
Maybelle Carter; the two would later
divorce, yet they had a daughter named
Carlene that would become a musician in her own right during the '70s.
Throughout the '50s, Smith was a consistent presence in the country charts,
racking up no less than 31 Top Ten singles during the course of the decade. In
addition to recording, he began appearing in Western movies, like 1957's The
Badge of Marshal Brennan. In 1956, he resigned from the Grand Ole Opry and
joined a package tour organized by Phillip Morris. In 1957, he married country
singer Goldie Hill, best-known for the
number one hit "I Let the Stars Get in My Eyes."
As the '50s ended, Smith was no longer as dominant in the upper reaches of the
country charts as he was earlier in the decade, but he never stopped having
hits. During the '60s, he consistently charted in the Top 40, which was
indicative of his status as a country music statesman. In 1961, he appeared on
ABC's country television series, Four Star Jubilee, and a few years later,
he began hosting Carl Smith's Country Music Hall for Canadian television;
the series also was syndicated in America. Throughout the '60s and early '70s,
he began to incorporate more Western swing into his repertoire, especially on
his albums. Smith continued to release albums and singles on Columbia Records
until 1975, when he signed with Hickory. After having a handful of minor hits
for the label — including several that were released on ABC/Hickory — he decided
to retire in the late '70s.
Though he recorded an album of his greatest hits in the early '80s, Smith
retreated from the spotlight after his 1979 retirement. He and his wife,
Goldie, lived on their horse farm outside
of Franklin, TN, and the two began to show horses professionally during the
course of the decade.
