About The Record:

Honky Tonk Heroes, by country music legends Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn, marked a continuation of their highly successful duet partnership that began in the early 1970s. Produced by the renowned Owen Bradley and primarily recorded at Bradley's Barn in Tennessee, the album blends fresh tracks with previously unreleased material from sessions dating back to 1973 and 1977, showcasing the duo's signature honky-tonk style with straightforward instrumentation featuring harmonica, fiddle, and steel guitar. Historically significant as part of a series that produced multiple top-10 albums, it represents the eighth consecutive top-10 entry for Twitty and Lynn on the Billboard Country Albums chart, peaking at No. 8 in the US and No. 2 in Canada. The album's sole single, From Seven Till Ten, became a notable hit, reaching No. 6 on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and No. 2 on the Canadian RPM Country Singles chart, backed by the humorous B-side You're the Reason Our Kids Are Ugly. Critically praised for its raw country vibes and standout tracks like I've Already Loved You in My Mind and Live It Up, Honky Tonk Heroes underscores the enduring appeal of Twitty and Lynn's chemistry in an era of evolving country music.
