My folks has excellent taste in country music when I was a kid and I, as a teenager, of course was too stupid to realize it. I sure miss greats like Hank. He was proabably the best Texas swing honky tonker who ever lived.
Anyone from southeast Michigan? I remember back in the mid 70's when the Hank Thompson show was on channel 20. They showed a chopper flying at the beginning of the show.
here we find the most underrepresented/appreciated person, i could play hank a good 24 hours-no repeats,no one has any idea,except a few fortunants, the fantastic stuff he did,there is work to be done, to even start listing whats missing is to daunting right now, i could come up with 30+ Lps right now! R.I.P. Hank, the greatest gentleman C&W has known,
I'm 64, and all my life my dad was a big Hank fan, I mean "BIG TIME", so I was too, and have many of his albums. "Breakin Another Heart" is and was my favorute album of his, wondeful. Bruce Werner
Very good, so glad I took the time to watch it, Ole Bill Mack does a good job telling the story of this great singer and performer. I got to see Hank about a year before his death in McAllen, TX.
I can listen to Kitty Wells' angelic voice all day long! R.I.P. to The Real Thing, Hank Thompson. 'Songs For Rounders' one of country music's all time most influential masterpieces.
This is certainly a historical piece.
