Editor's note

David Houston's smooth country voice from Brooklyn

A 1960s country singer who found success with polished radio hits and unexpected origins.

For a quick sense of his sound, 'Honey' and 'Together We Stand (Divided We Fall)' frame it well. They're the kind of songs that explain why he stuck around.

Houston's biggest songs came in the mid-1960s, when his smooth vocal style cut through on country radio. Tracks like 'Honey' and 'Together We Stand (Divided We Fall)' became signatures, and his Brooklyn birth made him an unusual figure in the genre at the time. That music remains a solid part of the country catalog from that era.

He had his biggest success in the mid-1960s, following up with 'Together We Stand (Divided We Fall)' the next year. Recordings like 'Baby Baby (I Know You're A Lady)' and 'Back In Baby's Arms' kept his voice on the air. He died in 1993 at age 55.
