As half of the Louvin Brothers, Charlie Louvin (born Charlie Elzer Loudermilk, July 7, 1927) was one of the most influential musicians of the '40s and '50s; the Louvins defined close harmony duet singing for several generations of country fans. After the Louvins disbanded in 1963, Charlie began a solo career, recording for Capitol Records until 1972. During that time, he had two Top Ten hits -- "I Don't Love You Anymore" (number four, 1964) and "See the Big Man Cry" (number seven, 1965) -- as well as a series of minor hits. Louvin continued to perform and record for a variety of labels well into the '90s. The eponymous Charlie Louvin was released in 2007 on the Tompkins Square label and featured a cast of characters that includes George Jones, Elvis Costello, Marty Stuart, Tom T. Hall, and Jeff Tweedy. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
