Biography
Smith was born in Kingston and raised in St. Ann.Campbell, Howard (2008) " [http://www.jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/20080923/ent/ent5.html I'd like them to play something new - Smith - Vintage artiste wants fresh material to be played] ", Jamaica Gleaner, September 23, 2008] He initially (unsuccessfully) sought a career as a radio announcer, but then approached Federal Studios looking for work as a songwriter, ending up recording his songs himself.van Pelt, Carter (1996), " [http://incolor.inetnebr.com/cvanpelt/ernie.html Thank You, Mister Music] ", (article/interview)] Recording initially in an easy listening style, Smith's first chart success came in the late 1960s with "Bend Down", which was followed by Jamaican number one hits in "Ride On Sammy," "One Dream," and "Pitta Patta", all produced by Richard Khouri at Federal, the latter based on Lee "Scratch" Perry's "Musical Transplant" rhythm, which was voted the best song of the year in "Swing" magazine.Larkin, Colin:"The Virgin Encyclopedia of Reggae", 1998, Virgin Books, ISBN 0-7535-0242-9] In 1972, he won the "Yamaha Music Festival" in Japan with "Life Is Just For Living", a song originally written for a Red Stripe commercial. In 1973, he was honoured by the Jamaican government with The Badge Of Honour For Meritorious Service In The Field Of Music. An album, "Life Is Just For Living" followed in 1974 on Trojan Records. "Pitta Patta" was followed by further Jamaican hits with "Duppy or Gunman" and "Key Card". Smith also had success with covers of popular songs such as "Help Me Make It Through The Night" and "Everything I Own", and as a songwriter had success at the Festival Song Contest in 1974 with Tinga Stewart's "Play De Music". Smith's "Tears On My Pillow (I Can't Stand It)" topped the UK Singles Chart in 1975 when recorded by Johnny Nash. In 1976 his "The Power and the Glory" was seen by some as a criticism of Prime Minister Michael Manley's policies, and led to threats on his life, prompting him to relocate with his family to Toronto, Canada, where he recorded the albums "To Behold Jah" and "Skareggae". In the late 1970s, Smith largely appealed to older audiences and released Gospel-influenced records such as 1978's "I'll Sing For Jesus" album. In 1981, Smith moved to Miami to be closer to his wife and children, later moving to Fort Lauderdale, but was beset by financial difficulties and cocaine and alcohol problems. Smith found help in the form of Bob Marley's mother, Cedella Booker, who he collaborated with as a songwriter, and in 1987, film director Perry Henzell asked Smith to write songs for his "Marcus Garvey" musical. Smith returned to Jamaica in the wake of Hurricane Gilbert, and began recording and performing again, initially with a new band, The New Agenda. In 1996, he released the "Dancehall Ernie Cleans It Up" album, featuring new recordings of some of his best known songs. In 2008, Smith returned with "Country Mile", an album that was preceded by the singles "That's The Kinda People We Are" (a duet with Pluto Shervington) and "Give Her a Lion" (featuring Ron Muschette).
