A really great side of work from the great Hank Williams – one that not only adds to the too-small catalog of studio recordings he made before his early death, but which also shows just how much the young Hank lived in the everyday lives of his fans! Williams sold plenty of records back in the day – but almost equally important were his appearances on radio, where he'd greet his fans on a regular basis, and give them performances that were maybe even more personal, and also peppered with the sort of charms he brought to his live recordings. The Health & Happiness shows had Hank coming into the homes of thousands during the month of October, 1949 – introducing material, collaborating with others, and doing a hell of a job on tunes that include "I'm A Long Gone Daddy", "Bill Cheatham", "You're Gonna Change", "Lovesick Blues", "Wedding Bells", "Lost Highway", "Wagner", "The Prodigal Son", "Thy Burdens Are Greater Than Mine", "I Can't Get You Off My Mind", "I've Just Told Mama Goodbye", "Pan American", "I Saw The Light", "When God Comes & Gathers His Jewels", and "A Mansion On The Hill".  © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.


Used CD Grade

We only use the grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs. This all-encompassing grade was chosen it because we only buy and offer used CDs in the best possible condition.

When you purchase a used CD you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks, the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves), and the booklet to be in good shape. Used CDs may show some signs of use, but if there are significant details or defects we will describe the item's condition (just like we do with LPs), so look for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details before ordering.

All of our used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. After you receive a used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly. If it does not, you can request a return for a full refund.
