The Statler Brothers - The Essential Statler Brothers, 1964-1969

If you're about my age, you probably only know about the Statler Brothers from their cheesy early-'90s TNN variety show and their appearance on the Pulp Fiction soundtrack (and the scene where Bruce Willis sings along). But before they got old and fully embraced corn pone humor, the Statler Brothers laced their humor with a dark underside and an earnestness that makes one wonder exactly who is supposed to be laughing.

The Statler Brothers - Half a Man
