Chanteur Country US né
Henri Ned Miller, le 12 Avril 1925 à Rains (Utah). Ned Miller est décédé le 18
Mars 2016 à Medford (Oregon).
While Ned
Miller was best known for his international 1962 hit "From a Jack to a King,"
during the 1960s he had 11 chart hits and made it to the pop charts three times.
Miller was born in Raines, Utah, and started writing songs and singing at local
parties and on the radio when he was only 16. After his discharge from the
Marines, Miller worked at several jobs before moving to California in 1956 to
become a full-time songwriter. The following year, singer Gale Storm scored a
Top Five hit with his song "Dark Moon";
Bonnie Guitar also had a hit with the composition, and both continued to
record Miller's songs. He began his own recording career in 1957 for the Fabor
label, issuing "From a Jack to a King" as his debut single. Later that year, he
released "Roll O Rollin' Stone," again without much notice. In 1962, following a
short detour to Capitol Records, Miller persuaded the Fabor label to re-release
his prior version of "From a Jack to a King"; this time, the single soared to
the Top Three on the country charts and the Top Ten on the pop charts, and even
made it to number two on the British pop charts. The following year, Miller
scored two Top 30 hits, "One Among the Many" and "Another Fool Like Me." In
1965, he had another Top Ten hit, "Do What You Do Do Well," which later provided
success for Ernest Tubb;
Miller's version also crossed over to the Top 60 on the pop charts. Later that
year, he returned to Capitol. Songs he wrote or co-wrote with his wife Susan
also found chart success for other artists, among them Gale Storm's "Love by the
Juke Box Light," Faron
Young's "Safely in Love Again,"
Porter Wagoner's
"Your Kind of People," and
Hank Snow's "The Man Behind the Gun." Miller faded into obscurity after the
1960s, but decades later
Ricky Van Shelton
recorded "From a Jack to a King" and had a number one hit.
Ned Miller died on March 18, 2016 in Medford, Oregon.
