  • Description

    A man who died before his time, Hank Williams in just seven short years of recording made an indelible and lasting impact on country music. Included in this compilation are some of Hank's compositions that he never managed to record or release himself along with a collection of recordings sung by one of the foremost Hank Impersonators of the time, Delbert Barker.

    Hanks own band The Drifting Cowboys contribute a wonderful swinging version of "Swing Shift Bounce" taken from a session recorded after his death that is very jazzy in its approach.
