Tim Carroll, "I Think Hank Woulda Done It This Way"

Mustang Lightning,
"Hank's Last Ride"

Loco Gringo's Lament - Ray Wylie Hubbard
the blasters "long white cadillac" along with katy moffatt's "hank and
audrey" and waylon jennings "are you sure hank done it this way."hank and
audrey" is a really nice song with a vocal by tom russell.those
immediately come to mind but i am sure there are many, many more.mark
one more came to mindbilly joe shaver's "tramp on your street" off the
album so namedgreat song about seeing hank as a kid
anyone mentioned jon langord's "nashville radio/death of country music"? the
first half of the track sustains a hank narrative for at least four stanzas.
