Biography

Buddy Williams (5 September 1918 – 12 December 1986), born as Harry Taylor and also known as Harold Williams, was a pioneering Australian country music singer-songwriter and musician, known as "The Yodelling Jackaroo". Country Music was conceived in the southern USA, but Williams was the first Australian to record country music in Australia, two years after the New Zealander Tex Morton made his first recording in Australia. Williams recorded his songs about life and times in the Australian bush and it was with Williams that the bush ballad was first born. In 2007 Williams's recording of "Give A Little Credit To Dad", complete with trademark yodel, was added to the Sounds of Australia project by the National Film and Sound Archive. Williams was an inspiration for numerous country stars that followed like Slim Dusty.
