Carolina Narita- MAC 3
Born in 1936 at Alabama, Clarence Carter is a
record producer,songwriter and musician that sings
blues and soul.
In 1970,he released one of his most famous and
world-renowned song ''Patches''that talks about his
childhood in his farm at Alabama and how hard was
to take care of his family after his dad passed away
and let all the responsibility as a man to keep the
family through. He was thinking about quit school,but
his mom say that it was Daddy's strictest rule,so he
continue to study and work the fields to get his
meals.
On the age of 13,he felt overpressure,like he was
carrying the weight of the world on his shoulder and
thought that he couldn't go on and almost run away
from home, but he keeps remembering what his
Daddy said at his dying bed.
Patches is splendid,is more than a simple song,
is culture for all ages.
