The Nashville Teens biggest hit Tobacco Road was written by John D. Loudermilk as was this great follow up. The Teens are the backing band on the superb Jerry Lee Lewis - Live at the Star Club Hamburg album.
Loudermilk was a cousin of the Louvin Brothers and also wrote Sittin' in the Balcony for Eddie Cochran. Other artists who covered his work include the Everly Brothers, Johnny Cash and Paul Revere and the Raiders. His own recordings, some made using the name Johnny Dee, are well worth looking out.
