Don Williams  (born May 27, 1939, Floydada, Texas, United States) is an American country singer, songwriter and a 2010 inductee to the Country Music Hall of Fame.  After seven years with the folk-pop group Pozo-Seco Singers, he began his solo career in 1971, singing popular ballads and amassing 17 number one country & western hits.  His straightforward yet smooth bass-baritone voice, soft tones, and imposing build earned him the nickname:  "Gentle Giant" of country music.  (More from Wikipedia)
