Here represented is the safe clear cut heroic values of 40s/50s America in song. Ok it was the McCarthyite era when middle America became paranoid over leftism, however some great popular story telling numbers came from those less complicated days.
@GrizBearman i wish the world was still like it was in the western days no one would be classier or under class they would still have cowboy hats and boots and thats all you need.
@joshacio actualy thats a marty robins song many tried to do including johnny cash. I prefer the original marty version, thiers a cheap newer video thats not comparable to the one with the record on youtube with no pics wich is the original version.
@joshacio my bad originaly done by sons of the pioneers but the marty robbins version is much cooler, just look for the original record version not the video of the 70s one.
hypnotic voice. though only 27, he sounds like a virile man in his mid 40's, at the peak of his physical abilities, yet steeped w/ the experience of life. its all packed into each tone he hits.
Hank so completely captures the desperation and loneliness of the character in the song that you believe that he is living it himself. In fact he was.
Marty Robbins has a great version of this also. Hank gives it a really good old vintage sound yet marty adds some good harmonies to it whilst keeping it vintage
So pure and natural. THX

"Cool Water". One of the best songs Hank has ever sung. That voice, that strum on the old martin guitar. Can never be beaten.

Hank was the most expressive 'non-african american' voice in 20th century rock music that i've heard, alongside Roky Erickson....
Brilliant.
