Honky tonk idol Carl Smith is an underappreciated giant. The father of iconic firebrand Carlene Carter, Smith was a prolific 1950's hit maker whose persuasive vocals put across everything from weepers to uptempo goofs to love songs with impressive facility, and he embodied post-war Nashville's perfected musical standard with boundless grace. All five #1s plus a heaping helping of Top 10s by this '50s country superstar and honky-tonk hero: "Let Old Mother Nature Have Her Way," "Go, Boy Go," "Don't Just Stand There," "Loose Talk," "If Teardrops Were Pennies," "Are You Teasing Me," "Do I Like It?," "More Than Anything Else in the World," "Back Up Buddy," "Before I Met You," "Kisses Don't Lie" and more!
