Editorial Reviews

Hank Snow s singing and song-writing is hallmarked by a sentimental and sometimes melancholic style, a reflection of his earliest musical influences and the circumstances of his upbringing. This collection focuses on that reflective, bluesy side of Hank, significantly with a number of Jimmie Rodgers songs like "My Good Gal s Gone" and "Mississippi River Blues". There is also a blue-eyes theme, including "I m Thinking Tonight Of My Blue Eyes" (from the Carter Family and a 1944 hit for Gene Autry), and the beautiful "Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain". This latter song, from the pen of Fred Rose, was to become a massive hit for Willie Nelson in 1975, and it is easy to suppose that Nelson drew some inspiration from an earlier Snow interpretation. Incidentally, the two artists are also linked by their proficiency on, and preference for, the acoustic guitar; Hank s agility abounds on this set, not least on the instrumental "Wabash Blues", although he is content to play rhythm behind his band on "Bye Bye Blues". Two other tracks worth mentioning: Hank gives a strictly Country interpretation of the classic Blues "Trouble In Mind", and the same on Ivory Joe Hunter s 1950 R&B hit "I Almost Lost See also: JASMCD3531 - Down At The Rainbow's End JASMCD3556 - Plays Guitar - The Instrumental Side Of Hank

A Kid's Review
This review is from: Blues for My Blue Eyes [ORIGINAL RECORDINGS REMASTERED] (Audio CD)
My husband worships Hank Snow and his music and thought he had everything until this CD appeared. It was a birthday present. After playing it, his ecstatic comment was "A Collector's Dream".
