Duo Country US formé en 1938 à Nashville (Tennessee) par Johnny Wright (né en 1914 à Mont Juliet (Tennessee)) et Jack Anglin (né en 1916 à Columbia (Tennesse)). Johnnie And Jack, accompagné par les Tennessee Mountain Boys, ont tourné dans le Tennessee, les Carolines et la Virginie durant les années quarante. Ils ont enregistré pour Apollo, RCA et Decca Records. Jack Anglin est mort dans un accident d'avion en 1963. Johnny Wright a continué à chanter en solo et s'est marié avec la chanteuse Kitty Wells.
Johnnie &
Jack mined the familiar turf of singing brother duos in the late '40s through
the late '50s with a few distinct twists. For openers, they weren't blood
brothers, just brothers in law. Secondly, they brought a new rhythmic strain to
country music, both in their use of Latin beats and the unfettered drive of
their combo, the Tennessee Mountain Boys. And of all the singing duos, they were
the most inclined to stretch the boundaries of their sound, from bluegrass to
sacred to amazing covers of R&B tunes with none of their country-soul diluted in
the bargain. But for all their melding of outside influences, few artists — even
in the mid-'50s — were as wholesale committed to sounding as "country" as they
were. Whatever they played, sang, or wrote, it always sounded like
Johnnie & Jack.
Johnny Wright
and Jack Anglin started playing together in 1938, forming a loose-knit country
string band featuring Johnnie's new wife Muriel Deason, whom he would later
rename Kitty
Wells. Their sound in the early days was heavily influenced by both
the Delmore Brothers and the Monroe
Brothers, Charlie and Bill. As Johnnie
plainly put it, "We were so green we didn't know you needed to develop your own
style. We just out and out copied their sound in the beginning." An important
member of the unit was Jack's brother Jim Anglin who contributed a high,
lonesome tenor harmony both live and on records and contributed mightily as a
songwriter during the duo's 25-year partnership.
Johnnie & Jack's band, now named the Tennessee Hillbillies, were just starting
up the country food chain with sustaining radio broadcasts on local stations
when World War II temporarily put the project on hold as Jack joined the Army.
Reunited after the war, Johnnie & Jack — with
Kitty now a permanent fixture of the band — picked up where they left off,
adding an emcee/bass player named Smilin' Eddie Hill and a young guitarist named
Chet Atkins to the fold. By 1947, they
were filling in for Roy Acuff on the Grand
Ole Opry, under the edict that they change their billing (Opry officials were
loath to associate with any acts that used the word "hillbilly" in their name)
to the Tennessee Mountain Boys and that Kitty
sit out the radio performances as the Opry was top-heavy with female singers at
the time.
At years' end, they had finally made their first records for the R&B-based
Apollo Records out of New York City. After the non-success of those early 78s
(the company refused to send promotional copies to radio stations to promote
sales and airplay) and a quick side project with Ray Atkins and Clyde Moody as
the King Sacred Quartette for the King label, the duo started recording for RCA
Victor — their longest lasting label affiliation — in 1949. But even with
Kitty recording solo and supplying high
baritone harmonies on the duo's records, success proved elusive for the next few
years. The troupe moved from one radio station to another, logging in time with
the Louisiana Hayride and stations as far afield as Georgia and North Carolina.
All of that changed with the release of their first hit, "Poison Love," in 1951,
the tune making the Top Ten on all three Billboard country charts at the time.
What Johnnie & Jack had done to crack the charts was to take their straight
bluegrass harmonies and wed them to a distinct rhumba beat, principally supplied
by studio bassist Ernie Newton, playing a maracca and wire brush simultaneously
while handling the bass part. In the dark days of country music, where drums
were outlawed on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry and electric instruments were
only grudgingly accepted, this new approach was novel and influential. The
combination proved a winner, one that the duo would return to on several
recordings, complete with cha cha endings, which would become a Johnnie & Jack
trademark. With Kitty's success assured
after the mega-success of "It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels," the duo
combined with her to become one of the most in-demand road shows in country
music. Within a couple of years, their sound would change again, adding bass
singer Culley Holt from the Jordanaires
to countrify a batch of R&B recordings, including
the Moonglows' "Sincerely," the Four
Knights' "(Oh Baby Mine) I Get So Lonely," the Delta Rhythm Boys' "Kiss Crazy
Baby," and the Spaniels' "Goodnight,
Sweetheart, Goodnight," all hits in the country field for the duo. This helped
handle the onslaught of rock & roll better than most country artists of the day
while keeping the roots of their sound intact. Johnnie & Jack made the Billboard
country charts a total of 15 times and probably would have had more entries if
the mid-'50s charts weren't limited to only mirroring the Top Ten songs of the
day.
But by the late '50s, Johnnie & Jack's records were being mainstreamed into the
Nashville Sound, with the Jordanaires,
the Anita Kerr Singers, saxophones, and
full rhythm sections burying their plaintive Vocals beneath layers of reverb and
pop sugar coating. Dissatisfied, the duo let their contract run out and signed
with Decca Records in 1961. Their new company changed the spelling of their name
to "Johnny & Jack," but at last the duo and
Kitty were all on the same label again and with labelmates like
Patsy Cline,
Ernest Tubb,
Webb Pierce,
Red Foley, and
Bill Monroe, they couldn't have been in
better company. The contract produced no more hits than the tail end of their
tenure with RCA, but with Kitty racking
up hit after hit, the troupe had all the road work it could handle. It was
coming back from one of these road trips that they were to learn of the plane
crash deaths of Patsy Cline,
Cline's manager, Randy Hughes,
Hawkshaw Hawkins, and
Cowboy Copas. On his way to the funeral
parlor to attend memorial services for his fellow performers, Jack Anglin's car
spun out of control, killing him instantly, thus ending the duo of Johnnie &
Jack on an especially sad note.
