Freda Keyes - Come With Your Heartaches (LP)
$25.00
Freda Keyes was a blind country singer from Ganaoque, Ontario, known for her weekly devotional broadcast on CKLC Kingston, featuring her singing and organ playing. This is the high lonesome sound of South East Ontario.
"Freda is vivacious, successful, of firm conviction, outspoken and blind - other persons who used to sing with with greats like Will Carter, Hank Williams and Ernest Tubb (as she did) would probably have continued to stardom. She didn’t. She chose another path and in her choice the rewards seem to suit her more than any of the material rewards that go hand-in-hand with stardom today" — Mike Sykes
