Description:
Personnel includes: Hank Williams (vocals, acoustic guitar); Zeke Turner (guitar); Jerry Byrd (steel guitar).
Recorded at Castle Recording Co. and Castle Studios, Nashville, Tennessee between April 21, 1947 and September 23, 1952; Herzog Studios, Cincinnati, Ohio on December 22, 1948 and August 30, 1949.
Mastered from the original mono tapes and 78-rpm discs.
Those seeking a definitive introduction to Hank Williams Sr.`s music need look no further than 40 GREATEST HITS, a beautifully produced set that includes all but three of Hank`s Top 20 hits. All the essential tracks are here, revealing Williams` mastery of both heartbreak songs (for which he, the composer of "I`m So Lonesome I Could Cry," "Cold, Cold Heart" and numerous other classics, is justly famous) and joyful, upbeat numbers (such as "Jambalaya," "Hey, Good Lookin`," and "Howling at the Moon").
Unlike many Williams retrospectives, 40 GREATEST HITS abstains from efforts to "improve" Hank`s music with such abominations as "enhanced stereo" (a cheesy reprocessing trick that transforms monophonic recordings into poor, echo-laden approximations of stereo) and posthumously added string sections. Instead, the set presents Williams` music in its original monophonic setting. 40 GREATEST HITS is arranged chronologically, allowing listeners to better appreciate the rapid rise and development of country`s greatest singer and songwriter.
