Chanteur Country US né James Henry Martin, le 10 août 1927 à Sneedville
(Tennessee). Jimmy Martin est décédé le 14 Mai 2005 à Madison (Tennessee).
Blessed
with a great tenor voice, traditional bluegrass singer and guitarist Jimmy
Martin mastered his craft as lead vocalist for
Bill Monroe's Blue Grass Boys for much
of 1949-1951 and again in 1952-1953. Martin's vocals and his dynamic guitar
playing both complemented Monroe
perfectly, and in the opinion of many, he was the finest lead singer and
guitarist Bill ever had. In 1951, between stints with
Monroe's band, Martin joined with
the Osborne Brothers, forming
the Sunny Mountain Boys. Though this association lasted only until 1955, Martin
has used this band name up to the present. In keeping up such high standards
over the years, Martin has hired numerous major-league musicians, including
banjo players J.D. Crowe,
Bill Emerson,
Vic Jordan, Alan Munde,
and mandolin player Paul Williams, all of whom subsequently made it big in
bluegrass. Martin is required listening for anyone with more than a passing
interest in bluegrass.
Martin was born and raised in the Cumberland Mountains of East Tennessee. As a
teenager, he fell in love with Monroe's
music, which inspired him to pursue a career as a singer. He began working at
radio stations around Morristown, TN, to gain experience; he also worked as a
housepainter to make ends meet. At the age of 22, he auditioned in Nashville for
Monroe's band to replace
Mac Wiseman, and he successfully
passed the audition. For the next four years, Martin stayed with Monroe,
recording 46 sides for Decca Records. In 1951, Martin briefly sang with Bob
Osborne, which was captured on a series of singles for King Records. At the same
time, he was a member of the
Monroe
side project
the
Shenandoah Valley Trio, which cut several songs for Columbia.
Martin split from Monroe for good in
1954, joining Bobby and Sonny
Osborne's duo as a lead singer. He stayed with
the Osbornes for about a year,
recording several sessions for RCA-Victor. Jimmy left the brothers the following
year, taking the band name Sunny Mountain Boys — which had previously been used
by the Osborne Brothers — with
him. In the spring of 1956, Martin signed with Decca Records and made his first
solo recordings. Through his solo records and performances on the Grand Ole Opry
and the Louisiana Hayride, Martin helped bring bluegrass into the mainstream.
This was primarily because he concentrated on bluegrass that focused on the
vocals, not the instruments. Within two years, he began charting in the country
Top 40, beginning with the number 14 single "Rock Hearts." Throughout the '60s,
he had the occasional hit single and became a staple of the bluegrass festival
circuit.
Over the years, Martin's Sunny Mountain Boys hosted a wealth of new musical
talents, including Doyle Lawson,
Bill Emerson, Clarence "Tater" Tate,
Paul Williams, Alan Munde, and J.D. Crowe.
Although the lineup of the band changed constantly, the quality of the musicians
remained high throughout his career.
In 1971, Martin sang "I Saw the Light" and "Sunny Side of the Mountain" on
the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's Will the
Circle Be Unbroken, which helped increase his audience. Martin parted from
Decca Records in 1974, signing with Starday/Gusto Records shortly after his
departure. He stayed at Gusto for nearly a decade, releasing six albums during
his tenure at the label. After Gusto went out of business in the '80s, Martin
began his own record label, King of Bluegrass, which reissued his classic Decca
recordings. Martin continued to perform concerts and bluegrass festivals into
the '90s.
In 1999 Martin was the subject of a biography titled "True Adventures With the
King of Bluegrass." A few years later, in 2003, he became the subject of the
documentary film King of Bluegrass:The Life & Times of Jimmy Martin. The
bluegrass legend passed away May 14, 2005 after a long battle with cancer.
