Description
Lyle Lovett first heard “Hello Walls” as a kid growing up in tiny Klein, Texas.

Lovett also reflects on the solitary nature of songwriting, the kiss of gratitude that Willie planted on Faron Young (the singer who spent nine weeks at No. 1 with “Hello Walls” back in 1961), and the time Lovett got to record a different Willie song with the great Al Green.
