Look What Thoughts Will Do

EW's GRADE
A

Details Lead Performance: Lefty Frizzell; Genres: Country, Reissues

Like Hank Williams — that other pillar of modern C&W — the woefully underrecognized Lefty Frizzell was eventually marginalized by rock & roll and came to a dissipated, premature end. Look What Thoughts Will Dogives Frizzell, with his chart-whomping honky-tonk, his due by unearthing the alternately heartrending and happy-go-lucky oeuvre of his early-'50s zenith.
