Buddy Starcher
Buddy Starcher (born Oby Edgar Starcher, 16 March 1906, Ripley, West Virginia — died 2 November 2001, Harrisonburg, Virginia) was an American country singer whose first record releases were in 1946,〔http://countrydiscography.blogspot.co.uk/2009/11/buddy-starcher.html〕 although he had been performing since his teens, often billed as "The Boy from Down Home".〔''The Encyclopedia of Country Music'', 2nd edn, Oxford University Press 2012〕
He starred on his own show on WCHS-TV from 1960 to 1966, and ran a record label named B.E.S. (for his initials) during this time.〔http://www.45cat.com/label/bes〕 However, he is best known for his spoken word recording entitled "History Repeats Itself", written with Minnie Pearl. Originally released on his own label in 1965,〔http://www.45cat.com/record/nc081590us〕 it was re-released on the larger and better distributed Boone Records in 1966. The track recounts uncanny similarities between the assassinations of Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy, accompanied by a musical background featuring "Battle Hymn of the Republic" and "America the Beautiful".
The re-released single hit No. 39 on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart〔Joel Whitburn, ''The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits''. 7th edn, 2000〕 and the album of the same name from which it was drawn peaked at No. 37 on the U.S. Country Albums chart.〔(Buddy Starcher ) at Allmusic.com〕
His wife, Mary Ann Starcher (nee Estes), was also a musician and often appeared with him on his television show.〔Ivan Tribe, ''Mountaineer Jamboree: Country Music in West Virginia'', 1996〕
