John D. Loudermilk (born March 31, 1934) is an American singer and songwriter. Born in Durham, North Carolina, Loudermilk grew up in a family who were members of the Salvation Army faith and was influenced by the church singing. He recorded some of his songs under the stage name Johnny Dee, and had a British Top 20 hit in his own name with "Language of Love" in 1962, but it was as a songwriter that he made his mark. Working out of country music capital Nashville, Tennessee, he became one of the most productive songwriters of the 1960s and 1970s, penning country and pop music hits for the Everly Brothers, Johnny Tillotson, Chet Atkins, The Nashville Teens, Paul Revere & the Raiders, Johnny Cash, Marianne Faithfull, Stonewall Jackson, Sue Thompson and others.
Hoo-Ha. Great song.

@lanossi Stimmt auffallend - ich (Jahrg.'45) kannte als teeny so ziemlich alles, was British Forces Network im Ruhrgebiet abstrahlte, aber J.D.L. ist mir nie untergekommen. Ich vermute stark, es mag auch daran gelegen haben, dass er, bei allem Koennen, aeusserlich wenig attraktiv erschien. War ja zu Anfang bei Buddy Holly und Roy Orbison das gleiche.

Ich finde John D Loudermilk als einen super Musiker.
Leider ist er in Deutschland nur Insidern bekannt.

Strewth ... having been raised in a railway family (Grandfather since 1912 in Franklin and father in Eshowe & mGungundlovu) this song resonated with me when it first came out ...
