RECORD RACK Songs of Hank Williams Hits Long After His Death By RED ROBINSON (Vancouver Sun April 11, 1958) |
||||||
|
The great
Hank Williams, one of the real
song-writing geniuses of our
times, died in the early
fifties but his music lives
on. Proof of this are the hits he had after his death. "Cold, Cold Heart," "Your Cheating Heart," "Half As Much," and others. This year two Hank Williams songs that never went in the pop field but were big hits in the country field are in the pop spotlight. One of these is "I Can't Help It," newly recorded by Margaret Whiting. This release is beautiful and sincere. It will probably ride to the top of the hit elevator. Rick Nelson has recorded another Williams song. "My Bucket's Got a Hole in It." It's one of the biggest hits this week across the land. In conjunction with the success of the Nelson hit, MGM has re-released the original Williams' version. It's real big on the country survey. This is proof that when something is great it will live on. Williams' songs have that something extra special--something that spells hit with a capital H. * * * *
*
Spanish
and French songs are sprinkled
lightly throughout your hit
parade this week. Two of
the biggest songs are "Chanson
D'Amour," with Art and Dotty
Todd, and "Corrido Rock." with
Bill [ed. actually Jim]
Balcolm.Both of these songs are flavored with the continental touch. Watch for more songs along these lines. The world is being explored through music and it's only natural that some of the old standard songs from foreign lands should get back on the charts. In New York the disc jockeys are predicting more Italian songs for the charts. Remember some of them? "That's Amore" and "Anna." We can all do with variety and when it's musical it's even nicer. * * * * * * The hits come these days from unknown newcomers. This makes it difficult to predict new hit material. When someone with a name like Ersel Hickey hits the music scene, you think to yourself, "with a name like that, where can he go?" But Ersel Hickey has one of the top songs out right now called "Bluebirds Over the Mountain." You can't judge a book by its cover, is the old saying, and I guess it's true too of record artists and their names."
