Description
This is an unprecedented release of music lost for 57 years!
At the peak of his career in 1951, Hank Williams recorded 143 songs for the Mother's Best Flour Company. Hank sang with his regular studio band and recorded his hits as well as many songs he never recorded commercially anywhere else.
From this amazing legacy, Time Life is proud to release Hank Williams: The Unreleased Recordings, a historic 3-CD, 54-track collection drawn from the very best of the Mother's Best recordings. It's a rare, informal glimpse into the heart and soul of country music's greatest star who passed away on New Year's Day 1953, at age 29.
These recordings give us a deeper insight into Hank's life and music, showing a personality that had never been revealed previously. It showcases his humor as he jokes with his band and the emcee, his love of music as he talks unguardedly about his favorite songs, and captures him in his prime. This is not just unreleased Hank Williams music; it's the first truly three-dimensional portrait of one of the giants of American music.
