Hayden Thompson

Hayden Thompson made his recording debut with I Feel the Blues Coming On in 1954. He signed with Sun in 1956 and recorded with support from Billy Riley's band and Jerry Lee Lewis. None of his Sun recordings yielded a hit, and disappointed by his lack of success, Thompson moved to Chicago in 1958 and recorded there for several labels.

Thompson's country-tinged recordings for Kapp enabled him to make a guest appearance on the Opry, but never achieved the stardom he desired.
