Let the Sunshine In: The Story of “Let Your Love Flow”
“Let Your Love Flow,” the infectious disco-tinged country anthem, wasn’t always destined for the Bellamy Brothers. The story begins in 1975 with songwriter Larry E. Williams. Williams, known for penning hits for R&B and soul artists, crafted the song with a soulful melody and a message of uninhibited love: “Let your love flow, let it shine.”
The Bellamy Brothers, David and Howard, were fresh faces on the country scene at the time. They stumbled upon “Let Your Love Flow” while searching for songs for their debut album. Recognizing its potential, they recorded their version in the fall of 1975. However, the country music establishment of the mid-70s wasn’t quite ready for the song’s disco groove. Rejected by several labels, the Bellamy Brothers finally found a home for “Let Your Love Flow” at Curb Records in early 1976.
Released in January 1976, “Let Your Love Flow” defied expectations. The song exploded onto the charts, becoming a massive crossover hit. It topped the country charts in the US and Canada, while also reaching the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. “Let Your Love Flow” became a disco staple, its smooth sounds finding a home in clubs worldwide. The Bellamy Brothers, initially seen as outsiders, were suddenly country music stars.
“Let Your Love Flow” remains a signature song for the Bellamy Brothers. Its enduring legacy lies in its ability to bridge genres and generations. The song’s message of love and self-expression continues to resonate, making “Let Your Love Flow” a timeless classic. So crank up the volume and let the good times, and the love, flow.
