'51:a The Country Standard

I'm a rollin' stone, all alone and lost
For a life of sin, I have paid the cost – "Lost Highway"

Some artists just cannot be touched. Towering figures in their field even years after their passing and/or disbanding. Take The Beatles. You CANNOT talk about the history of Rock without name checking those giants.

And in Country Music, the same would be true of Hank Williams. He is not only the bedrock of the sound but “The Mansion On The Hill.” The target. The standard. Just like The Beatles, pretty much ANYTHING Hank Williams touched in his all too short career is gold. The BEST country you’ll ever hear.

Authentic. Harrowing. These are songs that worm there way not just into the ol’ earhole but your gut. Songs that live with you. Like a good pair of blue jeans, these are songs that fit ya’ better with each listen. A veritable well worn wardrobe to keep you warm and comfy when life inevitably sends you down that “Lost Highway.”

So get yourself a “jug of wine”, pour yourself a glass or two, and join me & ol’ Hank reminiscing about the countless lives that could have been lived but weren’t. The paths not taken that should have been. Because that’s what country music is all about. I don’t know a lot. (I know that now. But then NONE of us do.) But there is one more thing I DO know. And THAT'S that joining me & my pal Hank here is the one sure thing you will NOT regret come morning.
