The matriarch of the influential Southern gospel trio the Singing Rambos, Dottie Rambo looms as one of the most prolific songwriters in the postwar spiritual music canon, composing thousands of ballads and hymns recorded by acts spanning from Elvis Presley to Dolly Parton to Whitney Houston. Learning to play guitar as a young girl, Rambo was writing songs at age eight, and at 12 she became a born-again Christian, writing and singing gospel material exclusively. With husband Buck Rambo, and later with daughter Reba Rambo, the family recorded and toured as the Singing Rambos. In 1967, after the Rambos played a tour entertaining U.S. troops in Vietnam, they landed a deal with Warner Bros. Records, and their career stretched into the 2000s.
