Search - Dick Curless :: The Drag 'Em Off The Interstate, Sock It To 'Em Hits

The Baron of Country Music's burly baritone was forceful enough to rattle your walls yet agile enough to scale them. Dick Curless is best remembered for his pulsating trucker hits, many of which are included here, but it's his incredible versatility that raises him to the next level. Classic blues, rich ballads, and pop standards all found a way into his repertoire, and each style showcased a different aspect of Curless's voice, which possessed a rare blend of girth, nuance, and dexterity. If that wasn't enough to make you take notice, his delivery was effortless, relaxed, and graceful. --Marc Greilsamer
