What a distinct country artist with a style all his own! Hank Thompson, though well-known by many over the years, is a real legend often overlooked for his contribution to country and country/western music! What a voice!
Have been listening to this great country music since the mid fifties, and I can't see how the crapp they dish up to us today can even be referred to as country music let alone be compared to music like this, if only we could go back
I'm with you, Hon, but I kinda think you might like Niamh Lynn's While I Was Making Love To You. She's an Irish Country singer who has toured the USA, singing some of our old favorites, and her style is so Hank Thompson, it's eerie. Style, and she's a bit prettier. Cheers!!!
I had the privilege of playing lead guitar in Hank's temporary backup band in Washington the same year he recorded this video. A super nice guy, he was deservedy inducted into the C&W hall of fame a little bit later.
Hank Thompson was a legend in the honky tonk industry as Bob Wills was a legend in the honky tonk and Waltz industries. Both were and still are great artists. Kitty Wells remaked this song for the females during and after her era. Back in the day (early 2000s) XM radio and sirus didn't merge but Willie's Roadhouse use to be called Hanks Place (Hank Williams Sr and Hank Williams Jr, Hank Thompson, Hank Snow and others)
I love Hank's music, I came of age in bars, forever feeding quarters into a jukebox to hear any one of Hank's great, great songs. I must have played his On Tap, In The Can, Or In The Bottle, his Fortunate Few, and his Mark of A Heel a million times. Finding Hank's music on TH-cam was a godsend. Hank's music videos remind me of my youth in a free country, today a long-lost freedom, lost to the Politically Correct Communist fools who have recently taken over the whole wide world, including, unfortunately, the United States of America. Today, 2022, the whole wide world is in dire need of a few Hank Thompson types, and the Commie nitwits in Washington D.C., the men and the women, ought to be charged with treason, tried, convicted, and hung. Thanks, Hank, for the wild side of life, for helping us young girls dance to your music, baring leg and flashing ass, forever on the prowl for Mr. Right...back when the USA was a free country. Yes, I found Mr. Right, have been happily with this guy since the early 60's...and Hank's On Tap song played a huge part in my find. Thanks, Hank. God bless you, Hank Thompson. R.I.P..
Had to have been the most glitzy cowboy outfit besides Porter and Marty's. Always loved this tune, there's a couple covers , Bill Anderson i think did it but was too soft and tame from the Whispering cowboy. Rip , the other Hank 🙏👍
Roger...If you have the time and want to see "better with age," find Rosanna Rocci, the sexiest girl singer whoever lived, and view her videos from her teens till 2022, age in her 50's..

Hank had a great voice for country music.

So true, Michael. The modern stuff is absolute rubbish. How the Grand Ole Opry can host such rubbish is beyond me.
