Wie ich mich mit Smiley Wilson beschäftigt habe konnte ich erfahren, dass seine Tochter als Rita Faye auch Schallplatten veröffentlicht hatte und wie ich überrascht feststellte, garnicht so wenige. Rita Faye Wilson wurde am 5. November 1944 als Tochter von Hamilton K. Wilson, besser bekannt als Smiley Wilson, geboren. Sie spielt Autoharp was laut Internet übersetzt Akkordzither heißt. Mit diesem Instrument ist sie schon sehr früh als Session-Musikerin zum Beispiel auch bei Aufnahmen von Patsy Cline, dabei. Da ich ihre Platten leider nicht kenne weiß ich auch nicht ob sie singt. Ich vermute es zwar, aber sie könnte auch Instrumentalaufnahmen mit ihrer Autoharp veröffentlicht haben. Hier nun ihre Single-Diskografie bis 1962 als Little Rita Faye und dann ohne Little. Etwas später trat sie mit ihrem vollen Namen auf:
