  • “It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels”-- Kitty Wells (1952)
    “It Wasn’t God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels”-- Kitty Wells (1952) Added to the National Registry: 2007 Essay by John Rumble (guest post)* Kitty Wells When Kitty Wells first recorded for Decca Records in 1952, she had toured for years with her husband, Johnnie (later Johnny) Wright, and his partner, Jack Anglin. But the mother of three was tired of the road, and earlier sessions for RCA had yielded no hits. This time, her main concern was the session fee she would earn. Wells had moved back to Nashville, her hometown, with Johnnie & Jack on the strength of that duo’s 1951 hit “Poison Love,” their entrée to the Grand Ole Opry cast. Now, with Johnnie’s prospects looking up, she pondered leaving full-time entertaining altogether. As it turned out, Wells’s “It Wasn’t God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels,” her first Decca release, quickly scaled “Billboard” magazine’s country charts. The hit made Wells a major star, and an Opry member in her own right. To be sure, country music had boasted successful female artists since the 1920s. The Carter Family’s Sara and Maybelle Carter, cowgirl singer Patsy Montana, and Opry comedienne Minnie Pearl had already won national fame. But Wells was the first to reach #1 in the decade after World War II, when country entered its takeoff phase. In these years, American women faced enormous pressures to leave their wartime jobs, renounce political concerns, and return to keeping house and raising children. Popular magazines, psychologists, and men (whose jobs women had filled) all told them so.

    June 2014 Newsletter -------------------------------------- Yesterday & Today Records P O Box 54 Miranda NSW 2228 Phone: (02) 95311710 Email: [email protected] www.yesterdayandtoday.com.au -------------------------------------- Well it has been a long time between drinks. Last newsletter and the one before were both well over 100 pages. Let me tell you the work involved in getting one of them ready is mammoth. So much so that I must admit to being more than a tad discouraged at the response. Yes, I was contemplating closing but I had an epiphany of sorts when I realised what is required and that is more of a boutique operation. That doesn’t mean I am going to start selling frangipani scented candles but rather just downsize things. It will entail having less of the $5 and $10 cds which required a lot of work just to maintain. There will be some. The newsletter will be more compact. But the great lot of indie country cds will not diminish. Naturally I won’t be able to continue sending newsletters to everyone but long term customers & friends have nothing to worry about. As always I do buy collections and pay very good prices. If you have some things you don’t need or know of anyone who has a collection for sale please let me know. Consider it as musical recycling at its best. There is always someone who will be happy and grateful, believe me. If you have no further use for something than go ahead..make someone else’s day. Sadly there have been a few long time customers who I would classify as friends who have passed on.

Larger orders will be sent in satchels where possible. What a couple of months it has been with 3 major players passing away. George Jones: what can you say that hasn’t already been said. His passing really took every one by surprise. He had had a few trips to hospital over the past couple of years and most were of a precautionary nature so it was a real shock. Vern Gosdin, in the great “Chip Off the Old BlocK” says “Jones sounded just like Hank” when he first heard him so the classic voice we came to know and love was honed over many years. His greatest moment is unquestionably “He Stopped Loving Here Today”. Written by two of the best in Bobby Braddock and Curly Putman it gained the award for the CMA Song of the Year in two consecutive years, 1980 and 1981 which is unprecedented. Everything about the song is wrong as far as hit potential goes. There is a ridiculously long intro and the song is sad. George apparently didn’t like the song and insisted the lost love make a return...or so the story goes. And indications are the final single release was actually culled from a few recording session. But who cares. It is beyond criticism. Superb enough to play and play and pay and never get tired of it.

  • Natasha Lueras on 1 August 1927, the Carter Family
    “SINGLE GIRL, MARRIED GIRL:” MANAGING THE UNMARRIED WOMAN IN COUNTRY MUSIC CULTURE, 1950-1969. _______________________________________________ Natasha Lueras On 1 August 1927, The Carter Family recorded their semi- nal hit, “Single Girl, Married Girl,” and thus helped to in- augurate “country” as a distinct category of American pop- ular music.1 The song compared the lifestyle of a woman without a family, who enjoys leisure time and has extra money to spend on new clothes, to a poor wife and mother stuck at home with a crying child. The story changes its tune in the end, however, when the listener finds that the single woman is looking for a husband while the “married girl” already “has her wedding band.” On that day, A.P., Sara, and Maybell Carter also secured a place for the lyrical trope of the “single girl” in the nation’s soundscape. Historian Katherine Lehman defines the figure of the “single girl” in popular culture as “a woman in her twenties and thirties, never married, heterosexual, and without children.” The character emerged in television 1 Bill C. Malone and Jocelyn Neal, Country Music, U.S.A.: The Third Revised Edition (Austin: University of Texas Press, 2010), 65. 44 Perspectives shows of the 1960s and 1970s, which Lehman argues, helped Americans come to terms with major shifts in gen- der roles and sexual norms. Accustomed to women being portrayed as either wives or mothers, audiences appreciated the appearance of a new TV personality. But, the independ- ence and sexuality of the unwed career girl, Lehman com- pellingly suggests, required management through “charac- terization, plot devices, and strategic endings.”2 While Lehman focuses solely on television, she effectively opens up the discussion of this archetype in other forms of popu- lar culture.
