these days, live albums are commonplace, but in 1952 the last year of hank williams' short life, they weren't. fortunately, two of hank williams' shows from 1952 survive. they capture him at or near his peak. you would never guess from the vibrancy of these performances that he had just a few months to live. he is rivetingly on form, plus they also capture his skilled handling of an audience. it's easy to sense that, although just 28 years old, he'd been doing this a long time. these two shows were recorded six weeks apart in may and july 1952, and they feature his biggest hits including 'hey good looking', 'jambalaya', 'i saw the light', 'love sick blues', 'cold cold heart', 'are' and 'fire on the mountain'. it also includes 'are you walking' and 'a talking with the lord' - the only know recording of this song.
