Details:
In 1951 Hank Williams was ready for the big time, and in country music that meant Nashville, Tennessee, The Grand Ole Opry, and particularly the Acuff-Rose Music company. Acuff-Rose, run by Grand Ole Opry Star Roy Acuff and professional song writer Fred Rose, was the first Nashville-based music company and the mainstay of country music for many years. Here, under Rose's tutelage, Hank's true talent began to shine and his songs just got better and better. This double LP is a collection of Hank's work from 1949-1952, with disc one being a collection of demos recorded during Hank's brief time in Nashville, including alternate versions of the three songs-Kaw-Liga," "Your Cheatin' Heart," and "Jambalaya"-that Hank took to the top of the charts. The demo version of "Kaw-Liga", which Hank co-wrote with Fred Rose, is very different from the one he eventually released, a welcome surprise for any fan! It also includes versions of "I Could Never Be Ashamed of You", written for his shotgun bride, Billie Jean; an amazing and foreboding version of "Angel of Death", suggesting that Hank knew full well that he didn't have much time left; and "Log Train", a song written for Hank's dad, and chronicling his early boyhood in logging camps. "How To Write Folk And Western Music To Sell", was a booklet published in 1951, and while Hank did not actually write the text, he did lend his name to the project and market it on radio stations across the South. Disc two features a collection of songs Hank sold to other artists during this period (with one example being "A Tear in My Beer", which Hank gave to Big Bill Lister, but which just sat around in an attic until it was discovered by Lister's son in 1988), and rare radio performances from 1950, including the "Farmer Jim" show in Jackson, Mississippi and the March of Dimes broadcast. Includes detailed liner notes.
