You are bidding on the rare LP:

"Hank The Drifter"- Hank Williams is Singing Again, released by Cattle Records (LP 7) in Mono in 1980. Made in Germany. "Very Limited Edition".

*There is something truly sacred about this record. There is a strange spiritual power in "Hank's" sheer emotion and expression, giving the feeling that he is in a struggle to channel the true spirit of Hank Williams. if you ask me, he succeeds profoundly. This brilliance is very difficult to describe, but the sincerity of these recordings are very haunting. "Hank the Drifter" was Daniel Andrade from Taunton, Massachusetts. He began his musical endeavors shortly after Hank Williams' death, taking on the name "Hank the Drifter" in tribute. He soon moved to Texas where he spent most of his career, playing on shows like the "Big D Jamboree" and releasing some phenomenal singles on the Houston, TX label, "New England Records". The music is a very nice mix of Hillbilly Boppers and classic Honky-Tonk. Only two of his songs here are overt tributes to Hank; "Hank Williams is Singing Again" and Hank Williams' Ghost". The rest of the tunes are uniquely the Drifter's own. The song "Painted Doll" in its self will make you fall to the floor, it's so good. This LP, on a scale of 1-10, gets a grade of 11, a timeless unparalleled classic by a musician that has been so under-appreciated it should make you sick. The cover reads "Very Limited Edition". I don't know how many of these were pressed, but likely only 300 or fewer.*

The Vinyl is visually-graded in VG+ condition. When looked at under a bright light, the record shows a very rich luster and a few, incredibly light surface marks.

The Cover is still in its shrink and is graded in VG+ condition, just showing some incredibly minor edge wear.
