Description

A NICE COPY OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY BOPPER FROM CARL SMITH ON A US COLUMBIA 78

BACK UP BUDDY

b/w IF YOU TRIED AS HARD TO LOVE ME

 Carl Smith's "Back Up Buddy" peaked at #2 in May 1954 on Billboard's Most Played Country & Western Records By Jockeys chart

Carl Milton Smith (March 15, 1927 – January 16, 2010) was an American country singer. Known as "Mister Country", he was one of the genre's most successful male artists during the 1950s, scoring 30 top-10 Billboard hits (21 of which were consecutive). Smith's success continued well into the 1970s, when he had a charting single every year but one. 

In 1952, Smith married June Carter, with whom he had daughter Carlene; the couple divorced in 1956. His eldest daughter Carlene was also the stepdaughter of fellow late country singer Johnny Cash, who was subsequently married to his ex-wife Carter. He later married Goldie Hill, and they had three children together. In 2003, he was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame. According to the Hollywood Walk of Fame website, he was a "drinking companion" to Johnny Cash, his daughter's stepfather.
