Essential Albums
- The demonic figure on the front cover may not look too authentic, but the spirituality driving Ira and Charlie Louvin on these gospel-tinged country tunes is very real. Whether the Louvins are testifying to their faith with tent-revival exuberance on “There’s a Higher Power” or warning of the wages of sin on the tragic “The Kneeling Drunkard’s Plea,” they bring a life-or-death urgency to everything they sing here. No matter if they were delving into the spiritual or the secular, nobody boasted a more goose bump-inducing vocal blend.

About The Louvin Brothers
With great songs and beautiful, heartrending voices, the Louvin Brothers had everything going for them but hit records. From the early '50s through the mid-'60s, the Louvins released a steady stream of first-rate material but somehow never managed to climb into country's highest stratum of stars. Today their records are justly revered by traditionalists and alt.country fans alike. Ira Louvin was killed in a car accident in 1965; however, Charlie Louvin kept the family tradition going on and off into the 2000s.
