Album Notes & Community Reviews
Gathering his explosive early 1950s singles for Columbia, 'Listen to Lefty' captures the singer's incredibly influential and fluid vocal style. His idiosyncratic use of melisma and deeply Southern phrasing permanently altered the stylistic trajectory of honky-tonk and traditional country music.
