"Wrong Lake To Catch A Fish" by Chuck Willis

Chuck Willis was an underrated blues rock artist who helped pioneer the sound in the 50s. Hailing from Atlanta, he got his start on the charts in 1957 when "C.C. Rider," a song that earned a spot in the R&R Hall of Fame, reached #12 (his second biggest hit). He soon followed this success with "Betty And Dupree," which made it to #33 in 1958.

Tragically, Willis suddenly passed away from a bleeding ulcer. He was only 30 and did not live to see his biggest hit crack the Top 10 a month after his death. "What Am I Living For" soared to #9, with its B-side, "Hang Up My Rock And Roll Shoes," going to #24. Willis had one final single chart later in 1958 when "My Life" peaked at #46.

Despite his truncated career, Willis left behind a bounty of terrific songs to lift your mood or console those who were unlucky in love. "Wrong Lake To Catch A Fish" is a popular favorite in his catalogue.
