Icon 2 Review

by Steve Leggett

The Statler Brothers stepped out from behind the shadow of Johnny Cash (they toured and recorded with the country star through the 1960s and into the early '70s) and became one of the most beloved singing groups in country history during their long stay with Mercury Records. This two-disc, 24-track collection brings together the group’s biggest hits from this time period, including “Flowers on the Wall,” “Bed of Roses,” “Susan When She Tried,” “The Class of ’57,” and “Charlotte’s Web,” among others, making this a nice introduction to the Statler Brothers' secular side.
