Notes

This album was the first ever compilation of Hank Williams' songs and was released shortly after his death in 1953. The 12" LP disc was still an emerging format at the time so the album was also released on 10" LP disc, 4x10" 78 RPM shellac discs, 4x7" 45rpm single formats and 2x7" vinyl EP formats. The 12" LP featured 4 additional songs (Crazy Heart, Move It On Over, My Heart Would Know & I'm Sorry For You, My Friend) in hopes of enticing the country music buying public to try long play albums over the more popular (and less expensive) singles.

      The numbers match, but I have a different cover.

      A great sounding collection of Hank Williams classics with some uncredited guitar work by Chet Atkins. Check it out.
