Hank Williams
15 CDs plus 1 Full-Length DVD

* * * * * * *
Hank Williams had a breakthrough year in 1951. He had a string of
moderate country hits already under his belt, but the release that year
of his version of an old jazz age novelty tune called "Lovesick Blues,"
originally recorded in 1922 by Elsie Clark and given a country
arrangement in 1939 by Rex Griffin (the template for Williams' version),
suddenly made him a big star. It also meant his touring schedule
increased, but he still found time that year to slip into Nashville and
prerecord shows for the Mother's Best Flour Company. These good-natured
and intimate performances were cut to acetate discs and then played over
the air on Nashville's WSM radio station. Brittle, disposable, and made
for only a few plays, these acetates were then shelved and forgotten
until they were literally rescued from the trash in the '70s by an alert
WSM employee. In all, 72 of these shows survived, containing some 143
songs, and all of them are presented in this beautiful, ornate set that
comes packaged as an old parlor radio and includes a 108-page hardcover
book; 14 CDs of the Mother's Best shows; another disc with his audition
for the similar Aunt Jemima radio show; and a DVD that features
Williams' daughter, Jett Williams, former WSM engineer Glenn Snoddy, and
two members of Williams' band, Don Helms and Big Bill Lister,
discussing and remembering the shows and the era. The performances
collected here are intimate and relaxed, and Williams tackles an
amazingly varied set list, singing old mountain ballads, hymns, and
cowboy tunes, and he delivers recitations of parlor poems and other
various cautionary tales as well, and even yodels on occasion. What
emerges is a full, rounded portrait of Williams at his creative and
commercial peak. "Lovesick Blues" is here, along with fine versions of
"I Can't Help It (If I'm Still in Love with You)," "A Mansion on the
Hill," and the Williams-composed gospel classic "I Saw the Light," among
others, including a spirited instrumental romp through the old fiddle
tune "Eighth of January," which celebrated the British defeat at the
Battle of New Orleans on January 8, 1815 (Jimmie Driftwood added lyrics
to the tune and had a huge hit with the resulting "The Battle of New
Orleans" in 1959). That these long-lost recordings are an absolute
treasure simply goes without saying. Hank Williams was country music's
first modern superstar, and it's nothing short of a miracle to be given
-- all these years later -- several hours of Williams performing in an
intimate setting just as he was beginning to break across the nation's
radar. ~ Steve Leggett, Rovi
