now look into Holwin Wolf.

There's a great documentary about leadbetter floating around about his time in jail for stabbing a guy to death, and how most of his music was recorded in prison before he was pardoned.

Crazy to think this guy was pardoned after writing a song for Governor Pat Morris Neff for his freedom.
