简介
by Craig HarrisWith his gutsy blend of rockabilly and Cajun music, Tommy McLain helped to lay the foundation of Louisianas swamp pop tradition. The writer of more than 150, McLain is best known as the writer of Freddy Fenders hit, If You Dont Love Me Alone (Leave Me Alone), and the performer of a swamp pop version of Sweet Dreams that sold more than three million copies in 1966. In addition to being twice inducted into the Louisiana Hall of Fame, McLain was inducted into the rock & roll hall of fame in Sweden. McLain has had a career-long involvement with country singer Clint West. In the late 50s, they were both members of Red Smileys Vel-Tones and moved together to the Boogie Kings in the mid-60s. In 1965, McLain and West recorded a duet single, Try to Find Another Man. A native of the small central Louisiana city of Jonesville, McLain began playing guitar at the age of five. He soon added piano, keyboards, drums, bass, fiddle, and bagpipe. A former DJ at KREH in Oakdale, LA, McLain toured with Dick Clarks Caravan of Stars and Where the Action Is in the 1960s. He also appeared in the film The Drowning Man starring Paul Newman. McLain continues to perform with his group, Tommy McLain and the Mule Train Band. (更多)
