1982 studio album by Conway Twitty From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Southern Comfort is the forty-fourth studio album by American country music singer Conway Twitty. The album was released in February 1982,[2] by Elektra Records.[3] Twitty had signed with the label after a long tenure with MCA Records and one of its predecessors, Decca Records; the change in allegiance was owed to a change in management in MCA which also shifted its focus to marketing and promoting newer artists.
