Lefty Frizzell

KWKH legend Willie Nelson's 1977 album, "To Lefty From Willie," was a tribute to Lefty Frizzell and consisted entirely of cover versions of Frizzell songs.

Lefty Frizzell (March 31, 1928–July 19, 1975), born William Orville Frizzell, was an American country music singer and songwriter of the 1950s, and a proponent of honky tonk music. His relaxed style of singing was an influence on later stars Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, Roy Orbison, George Jones and John Fogerty. He is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame.
