Mother Maybelle gifted my mother a pair of her earrings back when my mother had a television show in Cincinnati. She said Mother Maybelle was the most genuinely sweet woman she'd ever met, and my mother was not afraid to criticize people, so Ms. Carter must have been a top-notch person.

@@andrewdressler6173 I wasn't lying. If you go on Amazon and look for the book "Images of America: Cincinnati Television," you will see my mother listed as Ramona Burnette (née Watkins; Burnette was her first husband's last name) on pages 56 and 109. My father, "Bud Chase" (actual name Arthur Erwin Churvis) is on pages 77, 83, 109, and 116. I wish it had some pictures from my mother's show; it had some from my father's shows. I talked with the author, Jim Friedman, about ten years ago and we had a great talk. He didn't know that Bud and Ramona had married after WCPO, so we had a lot to talk about. Would you care to take back your accusation, and perhaps apologize?

So you were ingenuine when you apologized to me? I am telling the absolute truth, sir. Go to my father's Find A Grave page, where you'll notice all the memorial messages from fans, etc, even though it was back in the fifties. On findagrave, search for Arthur Erwin Churvis. You will see that someone posted an image of an old newspaper ad for one of his shows, and you will see my mother Ramona's link, too. Two of his shows are mentioned on the back outside cover of the book I mentioned to you earlier. Is **THIS** enough to prove that I am not lying to you?

Mother Maybelle and June are my pilots! If you play guitar and have not learned to play "The Wildwood Flower", you have at least one more pleasurable task in life! It's not a difficult piece of picking. Alas, the lyrics always escape, but it is one song that MUST be sung by a woman. I tried to rewrite the lyric for a male but failed miserably. After many years, I found a woman who could and would sing it on stage, while I played the guitar. It was wonderful. I was smiling like a fool through the entire song. I always wanted to play The Wildwood Flower for a live audience. When I finally did this, I felt I could die happy. God Bless The Carter Family!

@calebbasile2219 Ай бұрын

I’m learning it right now, not difficult at all, but so fun to play. It is a little tricky, I wish I would’ve learned it as a beginner. I have the first part of the song down. I had to put my daughter to bed so I’ll practice the rest later. I agree, it only makes sense if a woman sings it, Johnny Cash did his version, with Maybelle of course, which was changed for a man, but it’s a totally different melody only until the wildwood flower line. So it’s not really like being able to sing the song as a man. I want to teach my daughter how to play this song, she’s only 3 right now. Love the story!

My dad played the fiddle and did it well.

I have been working on a book that answers the question "Will You Miss Me When I'm Gone" for over 4 years which focus's on mainly Helen, June and Anita Carter along with their mom's band - "The Carter Sisters and Mother Maybelle" They had a great career and life's story. My book follows the Carters through 7 radio stations. They were such a unique and most talented all-female family band that rose to be a household name that filled every venue they played. The first band to really tour almost all of America from Maine to San Antonio by the early 50's. Heck they were the only band and females that Elvis Presley opened for and was billed lower than on the Opry tour for over a year. They helped all these great artists in different ways along the way, Chet Atkins, Hank Williams Sr, Elvis Presley, Marty Robbins, Johnny Cash and even Waylon Jennings later.

This was a great upload, there’s something new to learn about the Carter’s even years after the events themselves. Truly gifted and humble talents.

It doesn't matter who the documentary is about, Mother Maybelle, June, Helen or even Johnny Cash, when Anita Carter opens her mouth and sings it's hard to concentrate on anything else.

The male Carter voice comes back here after a long sleep; there was only so much Johnny Cash could do to fill the void. It comes through in great beauty.

I love it when the two things I love the most, music/the guitar and history merge and we learn about these amazing musicians through these great documentaries!

Oh I just recall so many of the old Carter Family songs. I love Country Music, and They’re as much a part of it as Johnny Cash. Another favourite Country Music Family of mine, is The Stoneman Family . They are another very versatile family.
