This cover shows an early example of the “Nudie Suit”, which was the creation of mandelin player turned tailor “Nudie” Cohn. Among Nudie’s most famous creations is Elvis Presley’s $10,000 gold lame suit seen on the cover of his “50,000,000 Elvis Fans Can’t Be Wrong” lp.   Nudie also designed Hank William’s white cowboy suit featuring musical notation on the sleeves (like this one above) and Gram Parson’s “Gilded Palace of Sin” suit, which featured pill bottles, pot leaves, naked women, and a huge cross. Many of Roy Roger’s film costumes were also commissioned from Nudie’s of Hollywood. Porter Wagoner was said to have had some 60 or so Nudie suits in his wardrobe, which he became famous for wearing in performance.

The Wilbourn Bros. had 30 charted hits between 1955 and 1972 including their biggest single, 1966’s “Hurt Her Once for Me” and the following year’s classic “Hurt Her Once For Me”. They also notched two Top Ten duets with Ernest Tubb “Hey, Mr. Bluebird” and “Mister Love.” In the late fifties, as partners with steel guitarist Don Helms in the Will-Helm Talent Agency, they introduced the world to Loretta Lynn among others. In 1963, Teddy and Doyle got their own weekly syndicated TV variety series — one of the first country music programs broadcast in color, The Wilburn Brothers Show ran through 1974, providing early exposure to acts including the Oak Ridge Boys, Tammy Wynette and Barbara Mandrell.
