 moreBrown and his older sister, Maxine, began performing while he was still
in high school. In 1954, the duo signed a contract with Fabor, releasing five
singles on the label. Later that year, their sister Bonnie joined the duo and
they became the Browns. From 1956 until 1967, the Browns were signed to RCA
Records, where they had a number of moderately successful hit singles,
highlighted by the 1959 number one "The Three Bells."

Brown began his solo career in 1965, two years before the Browns disbanded.
Initially, he didn't have much success and just scraped the bottom of the
country Top 40. Once the Browns disbanded, Brown began to have more substantial
hits, beginning with the number 18 single "You Can Have Her," which was a cover
of the Roy Hamilton hit. That was followed by the beer-drinking anthem "Pop a
Top," which climbed to number three. Although his next single, "Bottle, Bottle,"
reached number 13, Brown didn't have any major hits for the rest of the '60s.

As his chart performance stagnated in 1968, he formed a backing group called the
Gems and began a residency at the Sahara Tahoe's Juniper Lounge. In 1969, he
hosted the syndicated television show The Country Place, which ran until 1970.

As The Country Place was ending its run, Brown had his first major hit since
"Pop a Top" with the number four single "Morning." Again, he wasn't able to
immediately follow "Morning" with another Top Ten hit, but he began charting
more frequently. In 1973, he had two Top Ten hits, "Southern Loving" and
"Sometime Sunshine," which were followed by the Top Ten "It's That Time of
Night" in early 1974.

Jim Ed Brown had his greatest success in the late '70s, when he regularly
performed duets with Helen Cornelius. They had six Top Ten hits between 1976 and
1980, including their debut single, "I Don't Want to Have to Marry You," which
went to number one in 1976. During this time, he had some solo hits, but only
two of them broke the Top 40. Brown and Cornelius ended their partnership in
1981, following the number 13 hit "Don't Bother to Knock."

After the breakup of his duo with Helen Cornelius, Jim Ed Brown pretty much
retired from recording. He made the occasional appearance on The Grand Ole Opry
and he sometimes reunited with Cornelius. Brown also hosted TV game shows and
talent contests throughout the '80s. Toward the end of the decade, he opened the
Jim Ed Brown Theater near Opryland in Nashville, Tennessee, where he performed
regularly for a number of years. He died of cancer on June 11, 2015 at the age
of 81. © Stephen Thomas Erlewine
