Why Anita Carter did not become a Superstar is beyond me. What a voice!!!! She's living proof life just ain't fair. Thank goodness we have her recordings.
i saw anita cater live in 1985 my girlfreind wanted too see johnny cash so i took her anita carter was a backing singer in johnnys show i didnt even know there was a "anita carter". by the end of the show as the audience was walking out all anybody was talking about was anita carter. i was a suburban middle class heavymetal highschool kid anita carter totally blew my mind i didnt know it was possible for a human to make a sound like that her voice filled the air like a giant crystal chadlelier
I enjoyed allof the Carter Family, they were all very talented musicians and wer great in their own way. When it came to voices, it wasn't even close,Anita by a country mile. I feel blessed to have heard them at all. ❤
What a Beautiful charming voice Anita Carter had , died so young 66years old ❤❤❤❤ million Kisses Darling Anita. Thankyou for everything you gave us.xxxx
I will never understand how/why June was so famous (or rather has become so famous), and Anita was virtually unknown as an individual outside of the Carter Family when Anita was obviously the talented (& pretty) one. Nonetheless this is wonderful to see, and a huge reminder of what Country Music used to be. Thanks for sharing
+Richard Skola Anita Carter had a beautiful voice, but it could come across as quite cloying. The Original Carter Family's recording with Sara Carter leading is the benchmark for this song.
I listened to much of the Bear Family set of all Anita's recordings and IMHO her voice was far better than the shlocky material she was required to perform so much of the time.
I heard that George Jones and Hank Sr took a liking to this beautiful gal with the beautiful voice. But she wisely sidestepped those two troubled souls.
If you don't like her, don't watch her for goodness sake. Unlike with June, we're not bombarded by her presence so you had to have sought out Anita. And no offense, but come back when you jump off the Johnny & June mythology / hype bandwagon & can offer an enlightening argument. Until then it would be couth of you to leave the music history lessons to the lifelong fans of real Country & stick with the "I love Cash because he's a badass, yet know nothing of his or Country Music as a whole" group

It has often said that Anita had the best voice of the Carter Family
I agree
And Not Only ''The Carter Family", But In My Opinion, Also The Best Of Any Of the Other Lady Country Vocalists. jmho.

There's no way to describe this lady and this song. It's more than beautiful and so soft
A beautiful Celtic classic, beautifully sung by a beautiful Appalachian Lady. We miss you Anita

Anita was a very beautiful lady with a very beautiful voice. Love to hear her singing I'll be all smiles tonight, and look at those eyes
It is so nice to listen to a country singer who can really sing. :)

Has anyone ever done this song better? I think not. Anita had a voice beyond compare.

direfranchement I'll find that, and give it a listen. Cloying? I think I'll disagree with that. She just naturally had that sweet sound.
