5 out of 5 stars The Best Of Hank Thompson: 1966-1979.......2006-03-22

Another rewarding collection from this Country Music Hall-of-Famer. This set features a couple of remakes from his legendary Capitol records tenure accompanied by the best of his recordings from his affiliation with Warner Bros. and ABC-Dot.Hank is in fine, clear voice as he has been from the beginning of his recording career in 1947 and is accompanied by the usual western swing sounds highlighted by twin fiddles and steel guitar. This collection features several selections not generally available on CD including such novelty sounds for which he has been associated with over the years such as "Where Is The Circus" and "I See Them Everywhere." Also included is another of Hank's long-standing associations with drinking songs as evidenced by "On Tap, In The Can, Or In The Bottle." Other highlights include the slower paced "The Mark Of A Heel" and "The Older The Violin, The Sweeter The Music" which is somewhat akin to Hank's performing and recording career exceeding seven decades, a feat accomplished by only one or two others. Another highlight is an updated version of the instrumental "Wildwood Flower" featuring the Brazos Valley Boys showcasing why they have in the past been named as the top country instrumental band for fourteen consecutive years. A worthwhile collection for the personable Hank Thompson!- Bob Bernd
