The Anita Kerr singers were the most "used" backup singer group in Nashville from the late 50's through the mid 60's maybe later. They did the oos and aahs and much of the background vocals for singers like Jim Reeves. Everybody on here has heard them they just didn't know it.
@DontForgetToJog Marty Robbins "stole my gal" -lol
Yea, Marty and Dottie left for a few seconds during the song.

@TekoBand I watched a video titled > Jim Reeves & Dottie Dillard "But You Love Me Daddy" < and indeed this is Dottie Dillard.
TY for letting me know as these singers are new to me.
