STUCK IN THE VINYL AGAIN - HANK WILLIAMS JR, - THE EARLY YEARS

[maggot]

Good morning Wednesday warriors and welcome back to Stuck In The Vinyl Again. In addition to hump day it is also the 72nd Birthday of Louisiana born singer-songwriter and multi instrumentalist, Hank Williams Jr. Happy Birthday Hank ! We honor his legacy with this 1986 double compilation album from Curb Records. The LPs collect work from Hank just before he broke through on the charts. These selections primarily come from two studio albums in 1977, One Night Stands and The New South. My lovely Wife Lynn, once again, had the great fortune to see Hank, right here in Lakeland in 1988, with Leon Russell as the opener. I'll include a pic of her tic.
