Lefty Frizzell - Forever: 23 Greatest Hits and Favorites

Lefty Frizzell remained true to his country roots throughout the fifties, despite the ever-growing popularity of Rock and Roll. His recording of Long Black Veil in 1959 gained him many fans and his No.1 hit Saginaw, Michigan a few years later managed to break into the pop charts despite Lefty's identifiable country sound..

Forever: 23 Greatest Hits and Favorites concentrates on his recordings of the early 70's made in Bakersfield California. The lead track on this collection If You've Got The Money I've Got The Time saw him achieve a Grammy Hall Of Fame place, but his alcohol problems affected his career badly before his death in 1975. Randy Travis and Dwight Yoakam have cited Frizzell as a major influence on their musical styles.
