Chanteur
Country US né Carmol Lee Taylor, le 5 Septembre 1931 à Brillant (Alabama). Carmol Taylor est décédé
le 5 Décembre 1986 à Brillant (Alabama).
Carmol Taylor was best known as a
honky-tonk songwriter, but he was also a talented performer. He was born in
Brilliant, Alabama and began playing professionally in his early teens. When he
was about 15, Taylor teamed up with Billy Sherrill to form Carmol Taylor and the
Country Pals. The group stayed together for over 20 years, and between 1954 and
1974 played on a number of Southern radio stations. He launched his recording
career in 1955, and in the early '60s he and the Pals began hosting a television
show out of Columbus, Mississippi, where they performed for nine years.
Sherrill went on to become one of the most influential record producers in
country music, and he helped Taylor break into professional songwriting by
getting him a job at Al Gallico Music. In 1965,
Charlie Walker had a Top Ten hit with Taylor's "Wild as a Wildcat." Soon
after, Taylor began collaborating with Sherrill, Norro Wilson and George Richey.
Together, they produced several major hits during the 1970s, including "He Loves
Me All the Way," "My Man," "The Grand Tour," and "There's a Song on the
Jukebox." Although he had been recording since the mid-'50s, Taylor didn't
appear on the charts until the mid-'70s, with such songs as "Play the Saddest
Song on the Jukebox" and "I Really Had a Ball Last Night." In
1980, Taylor himself became a producer, and in 1985, he and Gary Lumpkin
provided
George Jones and
Lacy J. Dalton with a Top 20
hit, "Size Seven Round (Made of Gold)." Taylor died of lung cancer the
following year.
