![]() Ingen Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. Enjoyable and informative to a degree but mostly a blow by blow account of their lives. I'm happy to know more about the Louvin Brothers but the hyperbole around the book was just that and, at the end of the day, it was just another musical biography. ( ![]() I knew the iconic album cover (which is also the book cover) before I knew really anything else about The Louvin Brothers. Charlie Louvin gives us a tell-all of the dirt-poor cotton-farming brothers' rise to the top of the 1950's country charts, and the ruination brought on by his older brother Ira's hard drinking and short temper. A very quick and fun read, with some wonderful stories. Interesting to see how hard it was to be a working musician doing country music in the 40s and 50s. Charlie's peculiar relationship with his brother would be an interesting psychological study - both suffering from feelings of inadequacy. Ira the willful, Charlie the follower. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Get ready for one of America's great untold stories: the true saga of the Louvin Brothers, a mid-century Southern gothic Cain and Abel and one of the greatest country duos of all time. The Los Angeles Times called them "the most influential harmony team in the history of country music," but Emmylou Harris may have hit closer to the heart of the matter, saying "there was something scary and washed in the blood about the sound of the Louvin Brothers." For readers of Johnny Cash's irresistible autobiography and Merle Haggard's My House of Memories, no country music library will be complete without this raw and powerful story of the duo that everyone from Dolly Parton to Gram Parsons described as their favorites: the Louvin Brothers.
