Lonesome Number One: Profile of Don Gibson

DON GIBSON is the most original country and western singer of the past 15 years, and that's been his problem. While everybody else has been happy enough to sing with the country whine or western drawl, Don's been singing in a style that has to be called soulful. And although he has had big hits in both C & W and pop markets, he doesn't enjoy the almost guaranteed success of some other singers with more conservative styles.
