Country Music Hall of Fame legend Charlie Louvin explores visions of heaven
and hell on two new albums. Steps to Heaven, released September 16th,
2008, features ten traditional sacred songs, a collection The New York Times'
Amanda Petrusich calls "raw and stunning." The release is followed by Charlie
Louvin Sings Murder Ballads & Disaster Songs. Both albums were produced,
recorded and mixed by Mark Nevers (Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Andrew Bird,
Bobby Bare Sr.) Louvin's 2007 self-titled album was nominated for a Grammy,
Best Traditional Folk Album.
Although some might be surprised at a thematic Charlie Louvin album dealing
with death and destruction, one needn't look any further than the very first
Louvin Brothers album to find a connection. Tragic Songs of Life, released in
1956, is full of emotional songs detailing heartbreak, betrayal, violence and
loss. Inspired by Tompkins Square's recent Grammy-nominated 3CD box set
People Take Warning! Murder Ballads & Disaster Songs, 1913-1938, Charlie
reached back for a couple of songs from that first Louvins album, and pulled
five songs from the box set to create a moving and sometimes raucous new
take on traditional songs of tragedy.
