Connie Smith - Soul of Country Music '1967

Tracks list

More of the same unearthly sound, but this has Smith covering -- at times
burying -- other singers hits. Her version of Rex Griffins The Last Letter is
almost literally to die for.

In less than a year, Connie Smith moved from being a small-town Ohio housewife
to country stardom with a number one single to her credit. Perhaps overly
compared to and identified with Patsy Cline, Smith is still considered by many
to be one of the best and most underrated vocalists in country history. Her
lonely desperation came straight from the heart; also, her father was abusive
when she was a child, causing Smith to suffer a mental breakdown while she was
in her teens.
