		Don Gibson, the singer-songwriter who died on Monday aged 75, helped create the "Nashville sound" with such country standards as Sweet Dreams, I Can't Stop Loving You and Oh, Lonesome Me.
		The bleakness of Gibson's songs - among his sobriquets was "the sad poet" - matched that of Roy Orbison, who in 1967 recorded Roy Orbison Sings Don Gibson.
		Success did not entirely cure Gibson of unhappiness, which was compounded by a drug problem that began when he was prescribed a form of "speed" to help him lose weight.

		Don Gibson might or might not have been thinking of himself when he wrote his 1960 song “(I’d Be) A Legend in My Time,” but the title is an apt description of his own career.
		“I consider myself a songwriter who sings rather than a singer who writes songs,” Gibson has said, and as late as 1986 he estimated he had as many as 150 to 175 “working songs”—songs that were still performed enough to earn him regular royalties.
		It became one of the first examples of what would be called the Nashville Sound and won Gibson a #1 hit; it also set the pattern for a long series of other RCA hits, including “Blue Blue Day” (1958), “Who Cares” (1959), “Sea of Heartbreak” (1961), and “Rings of Gold” (1969).
