Genre
Country
Soulful Louisiana singer Tommy McLain became a legend in his home state when his sweetly mournful cover of Patsy Cline's "Sweet Dreams" became a major hit in 1966, and he won a cult following in America and the United Kingdom for his bittersweet swamp pop gems. Blending vintage R&B, country, and early vocal group sounds with just a dash of Cajun seasoning, McLain's best sides of the 1960s and '70s made ideal use of his clear tenor voice and his subtle, inspired use of vibrato. McLain wasn't able to follow up on the nationwide success of "Sweet Dreams," but his fellow musicians held him in high regard, and in 2022, a few of his better-known fans (including Elvis Costello, and Nick Lowe) helped him make a fine comeback album, I Ran Down Every Dream, while he showed off his spiritual side on 2024's Moving to Heaven.
