AlbumTalk: The Louvin Brothers

6292_123676915987_704450987_2857668_3795216_n

Feeling the “Jesus Loves You” angle had been done a hundred ways,

The Louvin Brothers (originally was The Love’n Brothers, but their pastor-agent felt it sounded a bit too secular)

decided to go a completely different direction….

“Let’s scare the hell out of people, that autta get them to believe!”

Pretty sure if I found myself in hell..

a) I wouldn’t be wearing Colonel Sanders suits

b) I wouldn’t be singing

c) and I would be a bit more concerned about the guy over my right shoulder.

Just sayin.

Thanks to Suz for sending this album to be a part of the AlbumTalk series.

This begs the question…were they sentenced to purgatory for those suits they were wearing? Just sayin…

Maybe it’s just me, but they really didn’t need a background. Just them in front of the green screen with the title scares me pretty bad.

Eternal damnation with the Louvin Brothers singing 24-7. Now that’s
scary!

Oh. My. Lord.

You laugh but they are considered to be country music demi-royals. They influenced Dolly Parton, Graham Parsons/Emmylou Harris, and the Byrds, just to name a few.

If you zoom in really close, you can see the tag line “…and he really needs braces…”
