We’re saddened to hear of the passing of country great Charlie Louvin, who died of pancreatic cancer this morning. About an hour ago, photographer Erika Goldring sent us this photo of Louvin with Emmylou Harris.

Charlie Louvin lost his battle with pancreatic cancer this morning. The last time I saw Charlie, he wasn’t quite the spit-fire I had known before but he still put on a good show. Emmylou Harris joined him on stage and told the crowd how Gram Parsons taught her to sing harmony to The Louvin Brothers.
RIP Charlie (July 7, 1927 – January 26, 2011).
