Search - Conway Twitty :: Love Songs

There haven't been a whole lot of country Casanovas, its male leads tending to pride themselves more on their square-jawed forthrightness rather than their seductive allure. Conway Twitty, of course, was the exception to the rule. The onetime rock & roll crooner developed into the Music City equivalent of Barry White with an unsurpassed string of hot and heavy hits. With titles like "I'd Love to Lay You Down" and "Lovin' What Your Lovin' Does to Me" and a voice that caressed like silk sheets on warm flesh, Twitty was the one Nashville star who seemed better suited for the bedroom than the barroom. Love Songs bundles 14 tracks, most from the '70s and '80s, on one dim-the-lights country collection where singer and theme are perfectly matched. --Steven Stolder
