The son of Mae Boren Axton (who wrote "Heartbreak Hotel" for Elvis Presley), he first hit pay dirt in the early 1960s when clean-cut folk superstars the Kingston Trio had a smash with the Axton-penned "Greenback Dollar." While Axton struggled to establish himself as a performer in the late '60s, Three Dog Night had a huge hit with another Axton tune, "Joy To the World," and prototypical hard rockers Steppenwolf covered Axton's "The Pusher" for the <i>Easy Rider</i> soundtrack. Axton eventually did become a star in his own right. He had a warm, slightly rough-edged voice, as well as a charismatic stage presence that eventually led to many acting roles. He died unexpectedly in 1999. - Eric SheaCountry Pop/Cosmopolitanen720Thu, 10 Dec 2009 14:24:27 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.624&rws=%2Fhoyt-axton%2Ftop-tracks.rss The late Hoyt Axton was a Singer-Songwriter whose seemingly effortless blend of folk, country and pop earned him millions from cover versions of his songs.
