Performer: Deana Carter
Producer: Deana Carter
Distributor: Welk

Notes: Though she has preferred to maintain her own career as a singer-songwriter without riding her father's coattails, Deana Carter recognizes, like many others, that her father, Fred Carter Jr., has been one of the finest studio musicians in Nashville from the 1950s on, and one of the key architects of country-rock, thanks to his work with Bob Dylan, the Band, and others. THE CHAIN is Deana Carter's tribute to her father, a heartfelt covers album consisting solely of famous songs that her father played on, such as Simon and Garfunkel's "The Boxer" and Neil Young's "Old Man."

Despite being the daughter of legendary Nashville studio guitarist Fred Carter Jr., Deana Carter did not seriously pursue a music career until relatively late in life--her debut album, DID I SHAVE MY LEGS FOR THIS?, was released when the singer was 32. Nevertheless, Carter's mature singer-songwriter-influenced style was an immediate hit. Subsequent albums veered even closer to pure pop music, but retained just enough country twang to appeal to fans in both camps. In 2007 Carter released THE CHAIN, a collection of classic hits, the original recorded versions of which featured her father.
