No one else has ever put it across like Hank, and I believe this one was one of his best. He had the ability to make each song his own whether he had written it or not.
Hi, The Great Hank Williams Sr. Jammed with my grandfather Lee Vance in Kentucky and Tenn., in the Late 30's and 40's and 50's..There was a recording, I have never heard it..I'd love to hear grandpa's voice or playing
AWESOME song and what a treat to come to this Sunday Morning..:):) No ONE in the history of country music as it really was has EVER taken this man"s place and NEVER WILL...I see video's here on YT all the time with people as young as 14 singing and boasting that Hank Sr. is the KING of Country and that's amazing to me that even now his influence is still going strong!
Thanks HANKWILLIAMS1924 for sharing..! Hugs, Joyce xx♥
hank williams was the best i remeber hearing hank on the radio way back when i rember hank singing on the radio the song this land is your land i can tell you first hand he sang it better then woody i love woody guthrie dont get me wrong but hanks the best its a shame that song hank sang is lost in memory it was live radio and not recorded
Thanks again Alan. I get chills everytime I hear this. People nowadays don't understand how revolutionary such an emotional song was at the time. Leon Payne wrote this one, and he wrote "Lost Highway' too, but Hank sings it as if it were his own.
Hank could be hungover or stoned out of his mind and still play and sing circles around any of these artist today. All I can say is how many artist do you know that sound exactly the same live as they do on a record? You have all these artist today that sound great on a record but sound like crap live on stage.
Don't get me started! Ha... does country exist anymore?? Well, I know it does, but it sure as hell's not that garbage on CMT. It's water downed pop-rock with cowboy hats and the occasional fiddle, it's a damn disgrace to American Music and our Heritage. We need to get back to the real Country, real Rock n Roll and real blues. That's the real stuff right there.
This is a beautiful song and I enjoyed listening to it I have not heard it in a long time. I'm adding it to my favorites. Thanks,Alan for posting and thank you J.T. for sending me this video. 5*****'s Shirley
What a superb voice and a really great way that this artist sings the lyrics...really great...The lyrics are so nice.

How great, revealing, to hear Hank speaking informally...possibly hungover...bantering with friends.
You can see the real guy, as well as the genius.
Beautiful, bittersweet.
