About this product
Hank Williams was, quite simply, one of the most important artists, as a singer, songwriter and performer, not just in country music but in the entire landscape of American popular music during the post-war decades. Despite the fact that his recording career was restricted to no more than five years, the impact and influence of his music has resonated through country, pop and rock since has tragically early death in 1953 at the age of 29. During that brief career, and also posthumously, he had 35 country chart hits, including no less than eleven No. 1s, including landmark songs like InchLovesick BluesInch, InchHey Good Lookin'Inch, InchJambalayaInch, the disturbingly prophetic InchI'll Never Get Out Of This World AliveInch and InchYour Cheating HeartInch. He was very much a pioneer of the honky-tonk style which was a key strand of country music during the '40s and beyond, and which he lived out in his tempestuous life, and his songs have been recorded by hosts of artists across the genres down the years. This great value 103-track 4 CD set comprises the A and B sides of all his releases, from his debut on the Sterling tag in 1947, and through his years with the MGM tag and the posthumous releases up to 1955. It also includes the releases he made under the name of Luke The Drifter. It's a comprehensive overview of his work, and a worthy showcase for a unique talent. Album Tracks 1. Calling You 2.

Hank Williams TITLE The Complete Health & Happiness Recordings - Produced by Hank Williams Grammy-Award Winner Cheryl Pawelski Audio freshly transferred, restored & mastered from the original 16Inch transcription discs by Grammy-Award Winner Michael Graves New liner notes from Colin Escott in bookpack packaging Includes InchI'm So Lonesome I Could CryInch, InchI Saw The LightInch, InchLost HighwayInch, and InchMind Your Own BusinessInch & more! The performances heard here were recorded on acetate discs (meant to be played only once or twice) that were shelved in 1951, and they gradually faded from common memory. In the 1970s the acetates were saved from the trash by a WSM employee and eventually given to Hank's daughter, Jett. On behalf of the estate, Jett fought an eight-year battle to establish ownership, finally winning the right to these recordings in partnership with Time Life. Units Per Set 2 Album Tracks 1.

![Count Basie - The Count Basie Collection 1937-39 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/8b38a860-c952-42f7-80a1-134be7bc574d.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
William InchCountInch Basie was one of the most important, innovative and influential personalities in jazz during the middle decades of the 20th century, both as pianist, composer and bandleader, his music transcending the worlds of small group jazz, big band music, swing and R&B, and with many future stars of the genre coming to prominence playing with his orchestra. Having honed his skills with Bennie Moten's band in Kansas City, he formed his own orchestra in 1936 after Moten's death and after a lengthy engagement in Chicago signed to Decca, recording for them until almost the end of the decade. This 63-track 3-CD set comprises his releases for Decca during those years, which laid down a marker as to the talent and style of his bands, and constitute a significant and satisfying body of work. The collection features many of his well-known compositions like InchOne O'Clock JumpInch, InchBlue And SentimentalInch, Blues In The DarkInch, along with some of the classic standards of the era. A number of the tracks feature vocals by the great singers Jimmy Rushing and Helen Humes, and among the predominantly big band recordings are some by Basie with a trio comprising Fred Green, Walter Page and Jo Jones. Among the other musicians in his line-up were Buck Clayton, Lester Young, Harry Edison and Dickie Wells. It's a substantial, entertaining and enlightening overview of this key era of Basie's career. Album Tracks 1. Pennies from Heaven 2. Swinging at the Daisy Chain 3. Honeysuckle Rose 4. Roseland Shuffle 5. Boo Hoo 6. The Glory of Love 7. Boogie Woogie (I May Be Wrong) 8. Exactly Like You 9. One O'Clock Jump 10. John's Idea 11. Listen My Children and You Shall Hear 12. (You Know It All) Smarty 13. Good Morning Blues 14. Good Morning Blues (Alt. Take) 15. Our Love Was Meant to Be 16.
