Our Hank Snow retrospective has been one of the most widely applauded projects we've undertaken. Here is the beginning of one of the most amazing careers in country music. It began in the RCA studios in Montreal in 1936. At first, Hank was under the influence of Jimmie Rodgers, but quickly found his own voice and style. These incredibly rare recordings have never been brought together in one place before. The Hank Snow legend begins here.
The songs include My San Antonio Mama, When My Blue Moon Turns To Gold Again, The Soldier's Last Letter, You Played Love On the Strings Of My Heart, How She Could Yodel, Blue Ranger, Just A Faded Petal From A Beautiful Bouquet, My Sweet Texas Bluebonnet Queen, Brand On My Heart, The Drunkard's Son and My Two Timin' Woman.
