2017-10-13 (Your Cheatin' Heart - Hank Williams)


Your Cheatin' Heart - Hank Williams (1952)

The single was released as a B-side to Kaw-Liga the same month of Williams death (January 1953) at age 29. To me, this song is the definitive country song. Williams wrote some of the best including "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry""Hey, Good Lookin'", "Cold, Cold Heart""Honky Tonkin'",  "Jambalaya (On the Bayou)" and so many others. He was one of those rare talents that combined near perfect songs with a unique sound and great vocal performances.
