Chanteur US né Thomas T. Hall, le 25
Mai 1936 à Olive Hill (Kentucky). Tom T. Hall forme son premier groupe à 16 ans: les "Kentucky Tavellers", et se produit sur la radio WMOR. Au début des années soixante, il devient le plus habile Songwriter de sa génération, s'imposant également en tant
qu'interprète chez Mercury Records. Vedette du Grand Ole Opry de Nashville (Tennessee) et Performers réputé, Tom T.Hall sillonne les Etats Unis à la tête de son groupe les
"Storytellers". Il est décédé le 20 Août 2021 à Franklin (Tennessee).
Tom T. Hall
is known as a storyteller, a songwriter with a keen eye for detail and a knack
for narrative. Many musicians have covered his songs — most notably
Jeannie C. Riley's 1968 hit "Harper
Valley P.T.A." — and he also has racked up a number of solo hits, including
seven number one singles.
Hall is the son of a bricklaying minister, who gave his child a guitar at the
age of eight. He had already begun to write poetry, so it was a natural
progression for him to begin writing songs. Hall began learning music and
performing techniques from a local musician called Clayton Delaney. At the age
of 11, his mother died. Four years later, his father was shot in a hunting
accident, which prevented him from working. In order to support himself and his
father, Hall quit school and took a job in a local garment factory. While he was
working in the factory, he formed his first band, the Kentucky Travelers. The
group played bluegrass and gigged at local schools as well as a radio station in
Morehead, KY. The station was sponsored by the Polar Bear Flour Company; Hall
wrote a jingle for the company. After the Kentucky Travelers broke up, Hall
became a DJ at the radio station.
In 1957, Hall enlisted in the Army and was stationed in Germany. While in
Germany, he performed at local NCO clubs on the Armed Forces Radio Network,
where he sang mostly original material, which usually had a comic bent to it.
After four years of service, he was discharged in 1961. Once he returned to the
States, he enrolled in Roanoke College as a journalism student; he supported
himself by DJing at a radio station in Salem, VA.
One day a Nashville songwriter was visiting the Salem radio station and he heard
Hall's songs. Impressed, the songwriter sent the songs to a publisher named
Jimmy Key, who ran New Key Publishing. Key signed Hall as a songwriter, bringing
the songs to a variety of recording artists. The first singer to have a hit with
one of Hall's songs was Jimmy Newman,
who brought "DJ for a Day" to number one on the country charts in 1963. In early
1964, Dave Dudley took "Mad" to the Top
Ten. The back-to-back success convinced Hall to move to Nashville, where he was
going to continue his career as a professional songwriter.
After Johnnie Wright had a number
one hit with Hall's "Hello Vietnam," the music industry was pressuring Tom to
become a performer. He decided to take the plunge in 1967, signing a contract
with Mercury Records. His first single, "I Washed My Face in the Morning Dew,"
was released in the summer of 1967 and became a minor hit. Hall followed the
single with two other singles in 1968 that failed to crack the Top 40. Then, in
the late summer of 1968, Jeannie C. Riley
had a major hit with Hall's "Harper Valley P.T.A.," which spent three weeks at
the top of the charts and was voted the Single of the Year by the Country Music
Association. Its success brought attention to Hall's own recording career, which
was evident from the performance of "Ballad of Forty Dollars." The song became
his first Top Ten hit, climbing all the way to number four.
Throughout 1969, he had a string of hit singles, culminated by the release of
the number one single "A Week in a Country Jail" at the end of the year. The
following year was just as successful, as "Shoeshine Man" and "Salute to a
Switchblade" both hit the Top Ten. In 1971, he had his second number one single
and his biggest hit, "The Year That Clayton Delaney Died," which was based on
his childhood hero.
For most of the early '70s, Hall was a consistent hitmaker as well as a popular
concert attraction. Between 1971 and 1976, he had five number one hits besides
"The Year That Clayton Delaney Died": "(Old Dogs-Children And) Watermelon Wine,"
"I Love," "Country Is," "I Care," and "Faster Horses (The Cowboy and the Poet)."
Hall was appearing on television shows with regularity during this time,
particularly Hee Haw. He also wrote a book on songwriting, which led to
his authorship of a pair of books in the late '70s and early '80s — the
semiautobiography The Storyteller's Nashville (1979) and the novel The Laughing
Man of Woodmont (1982).
Although he continued to have the occasional Top Ten hit in the late '70s — most
notably the number four "You Man Loves You, Honey" (1977) — Hall didn't deliver
hit singles as consistently as he did the first half of the decade. That pattern
continued in the early '80s, when he began having trouble cracking the Top 40;
only 1984's "P.S. I Love You," a cover of a 1934 Rudy Vallée hit, made it into
the Top Ten. After 1986, Hall retired from recording, although artists continued
to record his songs. In 1996, he delivered Songs From Sopchoppy, his
first album in ten years. Hall was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame
in 2008 and the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame in 2011. To celebrate his 75th
birthday, producers Eric Brace and Peter Cooper assembled a tribute album
covering Hall's 1974 album, Songs of Fox Hollow.
Tom T. Hall died on August 20, 2021 in Franklin, Tennessee.
