Like his later gospel recordings, these early sides are classics, including the #1 hit "Sixteen Tons." Ford was a gifted singer with a particular flair for comic material, and he was a huge commercial success in the 1950s and 1960s. He continued performing into his 70s dying a few days after a visit to the White House in 1991.
