If you are reading this, then there is no need to tell you who Hank Williams was, the KING of Honky Tonk country music until his untimely death in the early 50's, at the height of his popularity and at an early age. Here are 24 great Hank Williams songs, you will not be disappointed.

Greatest Hits is just that, all of Hank's best hits. I bought this to practice imitating his voice for karaoke. It was well worth the money.

Hank Williams Sr. was one of the greats of country music, and a pioneer of the honky tonk sound. He died tragically at the age of 29. But, in the span of that short singing career he produced many great and memorable songs. This wonderful album contains 24 of his greatest tunes, including Your Cheatin' Heart, Move It On Over (the doghouse song), I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry, and on and on.

This is a great album, with a lot of great tunes. My one complaint is that it didn't have There's A Tear In My Beer, the tune that was later remade to combine Hank's voice with that of his son. But, no doubt it wasn't one of his hits (though it should have been). Anyway, this is a great album, and I highly recommend it!
