This CD is about two very different singers and musicians who came together for a brief two years to make some of the best and most interesting duet recordings of the 1950s. The still-prevalent sound of Hank Williams was just beginning to give way to newer styles of popular country music and the upstart sounds of rockabilly. George and Earl together provided a link from the country duets of the '30s, '40s and '50s, the likes of the Delmores and the Louvins, to the harmonies of country music as developed after the rockabilly era. In terms of commercial success they were outgunned by the Everly Brothers, but they had a very different duet style and one that has endured just as long.
