CONNIE SMITH'S TRIBUTE
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 чер 2024
- An unforgettable tribute to Connie Smith on her 70th birthday with very special guests: George Jones, The Whites, The Quebe Sisters, Connie and Marty's family, and the lovely Texas Martin.
Connie Smith (born Constance June Meador; August 14, 1941) is an American country music singer. Her contralto vocals have been described by music writers as significant and influential to the women of country music. A similarity has been noted between her vocal style and the stylings of country vocalist Patsy Cline. Other performers have cited Smith as influence on their own singing styles, which has been reflected in quotes and interviews over the years.
Discovered in 1963, Smith signed with RCA Victor Records the following year and remained with the label until 1973. Her debut single "Once a Day" reached number one on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart in November 1964 and remained at the top position for eight weeks. The song became Smith's biggest hit and was nominated at the Grammy Awards for Best Female Country Vocal Performance. Smith's success continued through 1960s and mid-1970s with 19 more top-ten hits (including "Then and Only Then"; "Ain't Had No Lovin'"; "Cincinnati, Ohio"; "I Never Once Stopped Loving You"; and "Ain't Love a Good Thing") on the country songs chart.
In the early 1970s, Smith began recording Gospel music more frequently as she became more serious in her Christianity. As she focused more heavily on religion, Smith became known for her outspoken religious demeanor at concerts and music venues. At the same time, Smith spent more time raising her five children than focusing on music. She eventually went into semi-retirement in 1979. Smith would return to recording briefly in the mid-1980s with Epic Records. However, it was not until her collaboration with Marty Stuart in the 1990s that she returned permanently. Their musical friendship would turn romantic, leading to their marriage in 1997. The pairing led to Smith's first studio album in 20 years, Connie Smith. Critically acclaimed, Smith began performing again and has since recorded two more studio albums.
Smith has been nominated for 11 Grammy Awards, including eight nominations for Best Female Country Vocal Performance. She has also been nominated for 1 Academy of Country Music award and 3 Country Music Association awards. Rolling Stone included her on their list of the 100 greatest country music artists and CMT ranked her among the top ten in their list of the 40 greatest women of country music. She has been a member of the Grand Ole Opry cast since 1965. In 2012, Smith was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame.

Hi Audrey
This was and always is a BRILLIANT Show! Love the sound of the ending credits also. Real Music with passion and heartfelt.
Today’s country has truly lost its path of what country songs should be about
Hi Trisha
Agreed. I cannot listen to new country or new pop music. 'Suppose I'm just getting older, truly. But this was a great show with Marty, Connie and really talented musicians, real singers with harmony. And George Jones when he was still living. The White's (Sharon Skaggs). Show kind of reminds me of Hee Haw just a bit. Connie singing to the Lord Jesus with some of her kids and grandchildren. Precious.
The shame and good news, both, is that there is excellent music being made by old and young alike. It's now called roots and Americana, and not on hit country radio.
@@noisefuljoy yes indeed, a lot of bluegrass, and as you say roots music, tied in with the past of Scots - Irish, many new and old in this genre. Real country.
Does Marty and Connie have children??
Great show with great artists.
Beautiful!Thank you very much!😘👏👏👏⚘

George jones and Connie Smith legends 🙌
Great show love the songs great great show love george Jones and Marty and his band and the whites
I saw a comment on a Morgan Wallen song last night, someone said just put him in the country music hall of fame. The artist of today have no idea what real country is, fiddles, steel guitars, these folks here have forgotten more than the young ones of today. So happy to see George, I wish he could have sang, God Bless George we miss you down here. Much love to Connie, Marty and all the folks performing. I’m so glad I can come here and listen to real country. ❤
LOVE THESE TWO❤️❤️….One Can only Smile…Sit…Back..and Enjoy All the ‘Warmth’ and Incredible Talent…..Happy and Funny…ALWAYS🤗‼️❤️

A tribute means death, she is still alive
A tribute is a sign of respect or admiration, an award to honor a persons’s accomplishments.
no tribute does NOT mean "death", it was a time to celebrate and pay tribute to her.....she so deserves it, what a beautiful person inside and out!
They can't be beat
