Background notes
Archive material and source history
George Hamilton IV was born in Winston-Salem, North Carolina in 1935. He started recording for RCA Victor in the mid-1950s, and his 1956 album 'A Nice Place to Visit' gave him his first real success. That title track became something people remembered him for, even as he kept putting out records through the next decade.
He had a clear, steady tenor that worked well on story-songs. You can hear it on 'Early Morning Rain,' one of his tracks from the 1960s. The voice wasn't about big showy runs; it was more about carrying a lyric straight through.
His career had its rough patches later on, including some legal and personal troubles. But he kept singing, doing shows and recording into the 2000s. He died in 2014.
