More hot redneck tunes. It's the sibling synergy in their keening mountain high (valley low down drunk) duet harmonies that makes the Louvin Brothers special. Well, that and Ira played the mandolin guitar pretty good too. Check out podcast episodes of Cocaine & Rhinestones for the full soap operatic train wreck of The Louvin Brothers. Suffice to say they were not woke; see their Satan is Real album cover from 1959. But they could sing like birds on a hot wire.
