I'm getting old, 56 now.. I discovered these bad-asses about 3 years ago.. I've listened to them 20x, 365 days per year ever since.. they have simply changed how I look at music. I love Charlie and Ira soooo much.. they have changed my entire world & I am beyond grateful to be on a planet that gave us something as special & tender as the Louvins... gawwd, I love these 2 men.

My cousins, we sing Sacred Harp at our family reunion in North Alabama. Their parents are buried in Section Alabama.

Unlike most documentaries, this includes complete songs from old footage. Enjoyed this.

I plan to sing one of their songs this coming Sunday, in church, "The Great Atomic Power." I'm happy I got to see this film first. They were so talented ; great, great icons of the American song canon.

I still remember the date I first heard of the Louvin Brothers December 26 1969. They have been my favorite ever since.

Just familiarized myself with the louvin brother's...I was born way after their time...my introduction was through Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris... did they ever create great music 🎼 ! Consider me a fan !!! 👍💯👌 .

Good post Ghostwood. Thanks for the music Louvin Brothers.

I'm a secular individual, I've always loved the louvin Brothers they've had some of the best Harmony's I've ever heard of popular music up there with the blue sky boys with that pure Harmony sound

Wow, what an excellent documentary! Put together so well with their great music, Charlie's narrative, historical pictures...I just love it, thank you!!

Always my favourite singers Love your harmonizing GOD BLESS YOU.

Why did I not see this before? The Louvin Brothers have always been my absolute favorite, and I get around musically. No one even comes close, all time lifetime favorite.

Im in my mid 40s. I became familiar with them through a great podcast called Cocaine and Runestones. If you like this and are interested in the history of country music the best resurched athletic history you will find . No matter the platform. I can't recommend it enough. Theirs an episode dedicated to the Louvin Brother's that i is simply great that introduced me to them.

I grew up listening and singing their songs .

Although I wasnt born until 1968, I grew up on this gospel music and that trade mark "Muhlenberg Sound" with the thumbstyle guitar in my hometown of Central City Ky. Merle Travis was my grandpas cousine and Mose Ragar went to church with them. Chet used to visit for the Thumbstyle festival and Paul Yandell did to. Lots of great memories brought back listening to this!!

Man I love the Louvin Brothers

...and where are my manners??? thank you so much for this wonderful documentary.. I just wish it was 10 hours longer, that's my only complaint, ha!

This was nice, I appreciate it so much. I learned more about my cousins from this. Thank you.

i find it so special to learn backgrounds of these great singers. pretty sad.the last song tells it all

thankyou a good reminder to live like this for the Lord.

Best harmonies, ever.

Legends of country and gospel music

Beautifully edited labor of love. Bem haja!

always loved these guys. thank you!!

The Louvin Brothers are the real deal.

Absolutely beautiful. Tell it to your friends.

Loudermilk Brothers! Northern Alabama mountains.

Charlie's memoir is worth reading

Could we maybe say that Ira was the first country rapper? :)

17:08 Ernest Tubb thinking, "oh shit"

Ira had something else going on that caused his alcohol abuse. Chances are he had a treatable mental health issue especially with modern medicine we currently have. What a shame alcohol addiction caused him such problems.

Was this recorded at WMPS, 680 a.m. in Memphis, circa early 1950s.

Brilliant ..... it was the same with 'Joy Division ' they turned my life around for all the wrong reasons ....

At 16:29 the great Guitarist Paul Yandell.

Charlie Louvin’s Satan is Real is a good read

I didn’t hear about why their names were changed from Loudermilk…..

You know, I'm sorry for the way that things happened to them. But it puts me in mind of something that I just can't get out of my head. Let me start by saying I just love Ira and Charlie's singing, and I'm not trying to cause any problems. But Ira's story, his ways and actions remind me of a dear friend who almost mirrors Ira Louvin exactly. This person was going through life playing music, doing show's and doing quite well. However, they were hiding a secret that wasn't discovered until after death. They were never happy no matter how much success they had. They drank constantly and went through multiple marriages. No one understood why they were so unhappy until someone found a letter that held the answer. They were born what we today know as gay. Now I don't claim to know but I wonder if it could be the same thing? Now, personally, it doesn't matter to me one way or the other. But it might explain his unhappiness. I will always love their music as well as them individually. They were awesome singers.❤

Hard to touch their harmony !🔥🙏🇺🇸

The devil burnt their asses for the cover photo of "Satan is real".
