Biografía:
The Carter Family es el grupo más influyente en la historia de la música country (conocida por entonces como Hillbilly). Su catálogo de cientos de canciones británicas/apalaches, descubiertas y arregladas por el patriarca de la familia A.P. Carter, se convirtió en la Biblia de la música country. Junto a su esposa Sara como voz y su cuñada como guitarrista/vocalista, Maybelle (que patentó técnicas para tocar que aún se utilizan), Carter grabó cientos de canciones para sellos como Victor and Decca durante los años 30 y 40.
