The Complete Hits
Every hit notched by the number one country singing group of the late 50s and early 60s is included on The Browns The Complete Hits.
The brother-and-sister trio of Jim Ed, Maxine and Bonnie Brown personified two trends in popular music at the time; the rise of the lush Nashville Sound and the national craze for folk music, and as a result they crossed over from the country charts into pop stardom.
Never before had the homespun harmonies of country music sounded so smooth and downright commercial. Add to that the Browns' clean-cut image and you had an act ripe for superstardom in late fifties America.
All 21 of their hits (billed variously as the Browns, Jim Edward & Maxine Brown, and the Browns Featuring Jim Edward Brown) are here, with pictures and annotation by Grammy-winner Colin Escott.
