Our Take

Ah, HANK WILLIAMS, the man, the myth, the legend – or should I say, the hillbilly Shakespeare? The Complete Health & Happiness Shows is a treasure trove for any die-hard Hank fan, showcasing his raw talent and country charisma in all its glory.

From the moment the needle hits the vinyl, you're transported back to a time when music was simpler, rawer, and downright infectious. Williams' twangy vocals and heart-wrenching lyrics cut through the noise like a sharp knife, leaving you craving for more.

The live recordings capture the essence of Hank's performances, warts and all. You can practically hear the clinking of glasses and smell the cigarette smoke in the air as he croons his way through classics like "Lovesick Blues" and "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry."

But it's not just Hank's voice that steals the show – his band, The Drifting Cowboys, are on fire, weaving intricate melodies and toe-tapping rhythms that will have you dancing in your living room.

Sure, the audio quality may not be up to modern standards, but that's part of the album's charm. It's like stepping back in time and experiencing the magic of a Hank Williams show in all its unpolished glory.

So, dust off your cowboy boots, grab a cold beer, and let Hank Williams take you on a journey back to the golden age of country music. Health & Happiness indeed.

About the artist

Hank Williams

Hank Williams, the ultimate outlaw country troubadour, is as legendary as they come. With a voice that can make the angels weep and lyrics that touch the deepest parts of the human soul, Hank is a true American icon. His timeless hits like "Hey, Good Lookin'" and "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" have solidified his place in music history. Born in Alabama in 1923, Hank's passion for music started at a young age. He began playing guitar and singing in local honky-tonks, eventually catching the attention of record executives in Nashville. His raw, emotional style set him apart from his contemporaries, earning him a fervent fan base and critical acclaim. Hank's turbulent personal life only added to his mystique. Battling addiction and health issues, he lived fast and died young at the age of 29. But his legacy lives on, inspiring generations of musicians and fans alike. Whether you're a die-hard country fan or a casual listener, Hank Williams' music is bound to strike a chord. So pour yourself a glass of whiskey, put on a Hank record, and let his haunting melodies transport you to a simpler, sadder time. The man may be gone, but his music will never die. Hank Williams, we salute you.
