Tossin' & Turnin' (1961)
This album is built around Lewis's enormous hit single of the same name, which spent seven weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in the summer of 1961 and sold over three million copies, making it Billboard's top single of the year. The record captures the kinetic, restless energy of early R&B and includes his second top-ten hit, 'One Track Mind.'
