Biography
Frank "Hylo" Brown, Jr. was born in River, Johnson County, Kentucky and began his career as a performer on radio station WCMI in Ashland, Kentucky in 1939. Soon, he moved to WLOG in Logan, West Virginia and their "Saturday Jamboree". Six months later, he moved with his family to Springfield, Ohio. He began composing songs and performing on local radio stations in Ohio. During an appearance at WPFB in Middletown, Ohio he received his nickname "Hylo" because Smoky Ward, who was on the show, couldn't remember his name and started calling him "Hi-Lo". That nickname was a humorous indication of Brown's presumed vocal range. In 1950, he recorded with Bradley Kincaid at WWSO studio in Springfield. Four years later, Brown wrote a song, Lost To A Stranger, that was sent to Ken Nelson, the A & R man of Capitol Records. The song was meant to be recorded by Kitty Wells but instead, Nelson offered Brown a recording contract if he recorded it himself. On November 7, 1954, he cut his first recordings for Capitol Records. Lost To A Stranger became his first hit. In early 1955, he formed the "Buckskin Boys" performing on the WWVA Jamboree in Wheeling, West Virginia. In 1957, he joined Flatt & Scruggs on their "Martha White Mills" shows, and he was regularly featured in solo performances as well as with the Foggy Mountain Boys. He renamed the "Buckskin Boys" calling them "The Timberliners". The Timberliners consisted of Brown on guitar, Red Rector on mandolin, Jim Smoak on banjo, Clarence "Tater" Tate on fiddle and Joe "Flap Jack" Phillips on bass. After his Capitol contract had expired, Brown signed with Starday Records in 1961. He retired in 1991 and moved to Mechanicsburg, Ohio. Hylo Brown died on January 17, 2003. He is interred in Rose Hill Burial Park, Springfield,
Clark County, Ohio.

Hylo Brown The Girl in the Blue Velvet Band with The Foggy Mountain Boys
Flatt & Scruggs appeared on various country music variety TV shows, but they received their own 30-minute syndicated television show through WSM in 1955. The Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs Grand Ole Opry Show featured guests such as Maybelle Carter and many famous singers of the era, and this new form of broadcast media widely increased their fame and influence. The episodes captured a dynamic that couldn’t be translated over airwaves alone.
While Flatt called the shots and directed much of the banter onstage, Scruggs leaned on his technical ability more than flare. The show ran until 1969, when the two disbanded.

I used to be so fancy free but really lonesome as can be Till one lucky day you came my way I never knew what love was all about Until I met you I used to think there'd never be a girl who'd ever care for me Then what do you know you made it so I never knew what love was all about Until I met you When you kissed me I felt the seasons change from winter to Spring When you kissed me I lost my reason cause I heard the birds sing I felt like a king And now I have to rub my eyes each time I try to realize That your love is mine ain't it just fine I never knew what love was all about Until I met you Since I found you I feel the entire universe reel I never knew what love was all about Until I met you I'm the happiest boy cause you bring me nothing but joy I never knew what love was all about Until I met you When you kissed me I felt the seasons change from winter to Spring When you kissed me I lost my reason cause I heard the birds sing I felt like a king And now I have to rub my eyes each time I try to realize That your love is mine ain't it just fine I never knew what love was all about Until I met you I never knew what love was all about Until I met you I never knew what love was all about Until I met you
