Synopsis

Product Description
Frank Brown earned the nickname Hylo because of his considerable vocal range
that became his trademark. Born in 1922 in Johnson County, KY, which also became
the birthplace of Loretta Lynn, Brown had thoroughly absorbed the music indigenous to his Appalachian home.

In 1957, Brown joined Flatt & Scruggs, becoming a featured vocalist with the duo s Foggy Mountain Boys. Hylo Brown released his first album in 1958 on Capitol Records and it remains a traditional bluegrass classic album.

Hylo Brown recorded seven albums for Rural Rhythm Records in the late 60 s with Lee Sutton as producer. Available for the first time on CD, Legends & Tall Tales was the third of the seven albums and was originally released in 1967. Uncle Jim O Neal, creator of Rural Rhythm Records, was the architect behind Hylo Brown performing all
the standard traditional songs that have been handed down through the generations on these seven classic albums.
