CASH ON THE BARRELHEAD

Created on 13/12/2005

Artist: Louvin Brothers
Author: Charlie Louvin/Ira Louvin
Label: Capitol
Year: 1956

God fearing family duo, directly influencing the Everly Brothers and just like the Everly's the Louvin's went separate ways. Charlie and Ira Louvin both had solo careers. Charlie immediately scored with the appropriate I Don't Love You Anymore, while Ira killed himself driving into a tree in '65. Legendarity loomed around the corner.
