I was working security by the stage in Salem, VA, for the Cash/ Carter's/Statler's show back in the 60's when the Carter family came out. As they waited to go on stage, she smiled at me and said, "How are you tonight?". I was stunned, still not sure what my reply was. One of the high points of my 78 years. She was drop dead gorgeous and sang like an angel but absolutely down to earth. Never be another family like theirs. Brenda's hubby, Phil
she was the best female country singer of all time most people dont know that its a shame,they will tell you about Patsy Kline and Loretta Lynne and Dolly its no wonder, she didn't make a big deal out of herself,she really didn't preform much on her own, they never heard the angel, they had no way of knowing what the angel sounded like but for those few who did hear it live, it was an unforgettable sound she literally sounded like an angel
Sometimes musicians that could be very successful independently are instead part of a group. They often do things on their own, but secondarily. I put Duane Allman and CSN in that category. One reason is that they realize they can be more influential as part of the group rather than as a solo artist. Think about how influential the Carter Family is to country music and how risky it would have been to leave that to hope for something better. I suspect Mother Maybelle was the boss and who would disagree with her management decisions?
Anita Carter had one of the most beautiful voices in country music. I think it's a shame that she wasn't promoted better. She had a great vocal range and her soprano was terrific. I've got a few of her duets with others and I wouldn't swap them for anything.
Honestly my all time favorite singers have always been Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn, Crystal Gale, Reba MCcEntire, Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert, and Anita Carter.
Gives me chills that voice,rattles you right down to your soul.No exaggerating here. Check her out doing "loving her was easier". As good as she ever sounded,and honestly---those eyes will pull you in.So stunning...
@@misssophia8580 June seems to have a very naughty sense of humour doesn't she! And I love it. Goodness I love these girls singing. I regard Anita along with Patsy Cline, Judith Durham and Karen Carpenter to have the best voices in female music. One must ask, where would we be in music without The Carters?
Thank you so much for this song : behind Anita's Angel voice, I like (love) the rhythm section (nice guitars and "right in simplicity" string bass). God bless you all. From France, Jo)
She has the voice of an angel. I cannot get enough of her and Waylon Jennings songs together. The 2 country singers with the most sweet voices coming together and performing.
Saw the Carter's with Earnest Tubb & Texas Troubadours, when was 12 yrs old, 1952 in Live Oak, Florida. 👗👠💄Anita, was a dream girl with the voice of an angel. So pure & clear.🐞🎧🎼🎶. Cheers 🥂. Thanks for sharing
I think Anita's voice on that final 'ring of fire' is as close to the voice of an angel we'll ever be blessed to hear on earth. Mind bogglingly beautiful.
@@Individuell83 Sie war schon ziemlich aufgedunsen, ließ sich ansonsten aber nichts von Beschwerden anmerken. Ich habe aber auch zu dem Thema nicht nachgefragt.
Those are the sort of uncalled for comments that make youtube unpleasant viewing. Carrie Underwood is a GREAT singer and trying to diminish her talent in no way helps Anita Carter because she was simply one of a kind and no help or comparisons are needed when discussing her incredible voice and talent. In terms of range and sheer purity of voice there are only a couple of other gals I'd say compare and all of them have the advantage of having recorded and released much more music than Miss Anita ever did.
Johnny actually got the song from Miss Anita. June Carter and Merle Kilgore wrote it and Anita recorded it. Johnny Cash then said he dreamed of the song but in his dream says he heard the mariachi horns and then recorded his own hit version of it.
June carter wrote ring of fire, beautiful voice she will be missed by her mother and her husband and her sisters, Helen and June carter. She's in heaven singing with the angels!!
ANITA CARTER “(LOVE’S) RING OF FIRE” Love is a burning thing and it makes a fiery ring Bringing me the wild desire I fell into a ring of fire I fell into into the burning ring of fire I fell down down down down into the deepest fire And it burns burns burns burns the ring of fire the ring of fire The ring of fire!!! The taste of love is sweet when two very hearts meet I believe you like a child oh but the fire went wild I fell into into the burning ring of fire I fell down down down down into the deepest fire And it burns burns burns burns the ring of fire the ring of fire The ring of fire!!!. 👍🏻🎸✌🏻
When Anita hit those high notes The angels in heaven stopped to listen. When god made Anita he broke the mold he knew she was as perfect as he could create.
Does anyone know what the clip at 1:07 is? It's hard to tell if that's just the joy of performing or if the gals are trying not to laugh there. Wonderful.
@@misssophia8580 Thank you so much Miss Sophia! I don't recall ever seeing that performance before so it gives me hope there might still be Carter performances on youtube I haven't stumbled across yet.

The "Anita" Album I have is titled "song bird" very true.
Patsy (Cline) 😇
Then, along came Linda Ronstadt and all of a sudden the game changed

She didn't seem to crave the spotlight. She had a world class instrument, but not the drive to be a star. To some, that's not important.
As she aged, she became even more beautiful. and what a beautiful, effortless voice!
I totally agree

И очень жаль, что жизнь её была такой короткой.
Anita was always my favorite, loved her beautiful voice plus her good looks. Just beautiful on both accounts .

So beautiful that you did this. There was no voice like and there will never be another like hers. A true angle.
No female voice today can compare to this beautiful angelic voice .
Judith Durham from the Seekers?
Allison Krauss.
Anita !
how about Nicki Minaj? Or Britney Spears?
Honestly my all time favorite singers have always been Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn, Crystal Gale, Reba MCcEntire, Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert, and Anita Carter.
What a beauty....both by looks and vocally. Love Anita Carter. ❤
Just discovered her, the subtle layers in her powerful voice - she should have been HUGE!
Gives me chills that voice,rattles you right down to your soul.No exaggerating here.
Check her out doing "loving her was easier".
As good as she ever sounded,and honestly---those eyes will pull you in.So stunning...
Her voice gives me goosebumps it's so good!
Beautifully done. It makes me choke up. I miss her and her family and all the fun times.
Thanks & I'm glad you have good memories of the Carters. Hope I did her justice with this ... she & her family seemed like the loveliest people.

I should have added that Anitas version of 'Ring Of Fire 'is just so magnificent, so haunting and that High c4 note she hits is extraordinary.
@@happyolddude It's like there's nothing she couldn't do.
She was beautiful an such a great singer she had the voice of an angel sweet anita😊🌺💗🌺🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸😇
Thank you. Beautiful lady with a hauntingly beautiful voice.
An amazing voice.
i first heard her addictive
voice around 1949, and each year it got better.
Simply superb singer and person. I could (and have) listened to her all night.
Thank you so much for this song : behind Anita's Angel voice, I like (love) the rhythm section (nice guitars and "right in simplicity" string bass). God bless you all. From France, Jo)
Just mesmerised by her voice - I wish I had discovered her before she passed.
This was the best version I have ever heard. Congratulations. I love Anita and her singing.
She has the voice of an angel. I cannot get enough of her and Waylon Jennings songs together. The 2 country singers with the most sweet voices coming together and performing.
What a voice
One of the most beautiful voices ever! I remember her appearances on the Johnny Cash Show in the 70's.
Just started listening to her beautiful voice RIP

One of the most perfect female voices i have ever heard,all natural with no training.

heavenly voice ...
This is my all-time version of ring of fire and has been for the better part of fifty years since I first heard it on a cassette tape I bought.
What a talent and a baby doll!!
A beautiful woman and a beautiful voice. Just a terrible loss!
What a lovely voice
RIP.Anita
She had the most beautiful voice everm
She had a haunting quality to her voice ❣️
Her duets with Hank Snow are awesome!
She had a beautiful voice.
I met Anita Carter 1991 for an radio interview in Dresden, Germany besides a Johnny Cash concert. She was such a nice, friendly and modest person.
Zu dem Zeitpunkt ging es ihr gesundheitlich schon ziemlich schlecht oder? 😔
@@Individuell83 Sie war schon ziemlich aufgedunsen, ließ sich ansonsten aber nichts von Beschwerden anmerken. Ich habe aber auch zu dem Thema nicht nachgefragt.
@@mariowildner5874 gut da fragt man natürlich auch nicht nach. Hauptsache ihr schien es gut zu gehen und du hast das Glück gehabt sie zu sehen.
I wish I could see pictures of Anita when she was young, starting at around 18. She must have been really beautiful.
Loved Anita's voice and she was such a beauty.
I never realised until this song how amazing her voice was
One of the best female singers EVER......Listen to her and then try and tell the world Carrie Underwood is a GREAT singer

Absolutely perfect in all ways.
Anitia Carter is my favourite female country singer
She was obviously America's greatest female vocalist,
This put a whole new spin on a song I’d only ever equated to Johnny Cash...just gorgeous.
Johnny actually got the song from Miss Anita. June Carter and Merle Kilgore wrote it and Anita recorded it. Johnny Cash then said he dreamed of the song but in his dream says he heard the mariachi horns and then recorded his own hit version of it.
I love her duet"s with Waylon Jennings,.
She had such a beautiful voice and it sucks I didnt grow in the times where she was making music.
June carter wrote ring of fire, beautiful voice she will be missed by her mother and her husband and her sisters, Helen and June carter. She's in heaven singing with the angels!!
An Angel's Voice, Indeed!!
Anita carter had the most beautiful voice. June carter had a beautiful voice too
YES!
Thank you for this Great Job Just Beautiful!
"THANKS" to YOU TUBE ANITA voice will never be silenced. If had not been for YOU TUBE I would not have heard ANITA.
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing
From France. C'est joli, on ne donne pas de note sur une sensation si belle.
She was so beautiful with the voice of an Angel, I pray to God I wish I could have me a woman like that I wish I lived back then so bad
Quelles étaient belles.....
Et l on sent l amour qui les unissait... J admire... J adore... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It's amazing one of Johnny Cashs most famous songs was written by his wife. Social Distortion would always close with it. A true classic.
Fell in love with anita when I was a kid hanging around the grand old opry. The best I ever heard.
ANITA CARTER
“(LOVE’S) RING OF FIRE”
Love is a burning thing and it makes a fiery ring
Bringing me the wild desire I fell into a ring of fire
I fell into into the burning ring of fire
I fell down down down down into the deepest fire
And it burns burns burns burns
the ring of fire
the ring of fire
The ring of fire!!!
The taste of love is sweet when two very hearts meet
I believe you like a child oh but the fire went wild
I fell into into the burning ring of fire
I fell down down down down into the deepest fire
And it burns burns burns burns
the ring of fire
the ring of fire
The ring of fire!!!.
👍🏻🎸✌🏻
Anita should have had a much bigger career
She inspired Pasty and Loretta though her voice was superior; it doesn't break your heart, it haunts your soul
The ACTUAL Beautiful People ...
She was a good singer
love this
Thank you so much
Great talent and maybe the best of the sisters🎼🎼🎼🎼😇
When Anita hit those high notes The angels in heaven stopped to listen. When god made Anita he broke the mold he knew she was as perfect as he could create.
Oh Yeah, Ms Anita, one of the best. "Song Bird" my CD is called.
Anita was so beautiful
best ever by a good margin
What took life of such a beautiful angel
The Best Version.
Damn yeah ! , we miss her !
I can see johnny cash weakness for this lady,
WOW!
Original before Jonny version. June wrote it

@@marisaw.8333 june wrote the song with Merle Kilgore for Anita to record on “Anita Carter Sings Folk Songs Old And New”.
Do she have children.
Yup. A son and daughter. Her daughter sings like Anita !
I dont
