I love George Strait. But Hank Sr. is the fucking Beethoven of Country. That hard-ass painful Country music that was more about your heart than your pickup truck. Strait was above all that, but can't compete with Hank Sr.

Many fans remain unaware that Hank wrote much of his material. So talented.. So tragic that he died so young. Will be loved and admired long after I am gone, and as I am now 87, won't be too long before I join Hank. England, February, 2024.

[@keithsingleton6653]

@@ITILII they should have protected themselves and thusly their talent more. Shooting up can make one forget they just did and that's where overdoses kill. Talented brilliant but very stupid reckless people. They were just beginning to make their way in life. The young think they're indestructible. There's only so much serotonin in our nervous systems and when it's all used up, you're long gone into eternal suicidal depression. Worth the cost? The needle is for terminal cases, to help get through final days of pain. You would not want to become immune. If you need any more than a reefer or beer, something's wrong.

[@kurtleftridge6530]

Hank Williams had been around a long time and was my dad's musical hero. One day my mom said "yeah he was pretty good but he sang out of his nose" and my dad says "I don't care if he sings out of his b*** he's still the best country artist ever" lol R.I.P. DAD n HANK.

[@JudyPoole-wi5oe]

Was my Dad's favourite also. Ours was a musical family. My Dad played guitar & spoons, my uncle played fiddle as well as my grandfather on the violin & my grandmother the piano. Dad was the singer & would sing many of Hank Williams songs. My husband is also a big fan of Hank Williams & old time classic country. All our boys grew up listened to their Dad sing these songs & play guitar. I think it's funny that they all know the words to these old time songs.

I became a fan in an odd way. George Thorogood and Linda Ronstadt covered his songs. I just happened to come across an 8-track tape of Hank's greatest hits my Father had stored away. I played it, and that was it. The year: 1983. I was almost 20. (Was in October)

[@TheLarryburns84]

the Red Hot Chili Peppers did a crazy version of this on their very first album.. when I was getting back into their old stuff a few years ago I realised it was a Hank cover and it got me (back into) him as well !

[@bobbythornton2510]

Don Helms the best steel player ever, period. My uncle opened for Hank a number of times on WSFA radio in Montgomery before Hank made it big. He told me once no one could work a crowd like Hank.

[@cinematic35]

I like the piano in this version. My dad was a Hank Williams fan when I grew up in the early 60's so I got to hear these neat songs. It was only lately that I came to really appreciate the great song writing ability he had and why he is such a legend. I cannot stand the talent mocking buffoonery on the radio today and it has caused me to go back and listen to these old classics with renewed appreciation. Tell you something else--we don't have catchy melodies on the radio today. All they do is spew out notes all over the place and the songs really go nowhere. I just love how he could use 3 simple chords over again but sing amazing melodies over those chords for unique and different songs.Hank is a world class songwriter and performer!

[@koko-pu5vn]

I agree with you!! They didn't call him "The Hillbilly Shakespeare" for nothing!!
