I Saw The Light

How many thought you'd be getting the original LP that has been around for almost 45 years (it was issued on a 10 inch LP in 1957)? I thought so also, so I rushed out and bought this...

wonderful old music. brought back many great memories. many words we should all think of everyday. People today have lost their love of one another. We need to get back the old standards or how we treat out neighbors. We have the 33 rpm record and now enjoy having the CD to play while traveling.

Every cut on this CD is great, as with most Hank Williams offerings. The often left out "Angel of Death" makes this CD a great collection. Buy it, you won't be sorry.
