| - The Carter Family was a traditional American folk music group that recorded between 1927 and 1956. Their music had a profound impact on bluegrass, country, Southern Gospel, pop and rock musicians as well as on the U.S. folk revival of the 1960s. They were the first vocal group to become country music stars. Their recordings of songs such as %22Wabash Cannonball%22, %22Can the Circle Be Unbroken%22, %22Wildwood Flower%22, %22Keep On the Sunny Side%22 and %22I'm Thinking Tonight of My Blue Eyes%22 made these songs country standards. The latter's tune was used for Roy Acuff's %22The Great Speckled Bird%22, Hank Thompson's %22The Wild Side of Life%22 and Kitty Wells' %22It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels%22, making the song a hit all over again in other incarnations.The original group consisted of Alvin Pleasant %22A.P.%22 Delaney Carter (1891–1960), his wife Sara Dougherty Carter (1898–1979), and his sister-in-law Maybelle Addington Carter (1909–1978). Maybelle was married to A.P.'s brother Ezra (Eck) Carter, and was also Sara's first cousin. All three were born and raised in southwestern Virginia, where they were immersed in the tight harmonies of mountain gospel music and shape note singing.Throughout the group's career, Sara Carter sang lead vocals; Maybelle sang harmony and accompanied the group instrumentally; on some songs A.P. did not perform at all but at times sang harmony and background vocals and, once in a while, lead vocal. Maybelle's distinctive guitar playing style became a hallmark of the group.
