"Rigamortis BLUES" as done by Hank Williams

..They’ll Never Take Her Love From Me.. on Live Radio Broadcast Show…** (via from email) **, I recently learned this is off of an old Red Foley live radio broadcast show in the summer of 1950… (written by Leon Payne)..as I have many songs from Mothers Best Flour Show, My error to think that this was one of them. Sorry for any confusion. Hank had a Great Personality & this shows some of it.

    Hank Sr is the Robert Johnson of country music

    @ozarkkeegan more like he got caught drinking in the alley before work.

    The New Country Music is a disgrace to America. It just dosnet get and better than Hank Williams Sr. And probably never will

  9. Steve Endicott on May 30, 2022 at 7:09 pm

    This is an early morning Red Foley show!

    I remember this show, wonderful memories.

    Thanks again Alan. I get chills everytime I hear this. People nowadays don’t understand how revolutionary such an emotional song was at the time. Leon Payne wrote this one, and he wrote "Lost Highway’ too, but Hank sings it as if it were his own.

  12. clyde on May 30, 2022 at 7:14 pm

    No one else has ever put it across like Hank, and I believe this one was one of his best. He had the ability to make each song his own whether he had written it or not.

  13. alecksmedina1980 and devinmedina2008 on May 30, 2022 at 7:16 pm

    is it just me or did ol hank not sing the saddest songs ever?

  14. Rodney Hatchett on May 30, 2022 at 7:16 pm

    Hank Jr and 3 are pretty good but no man before or after conveys the emotion in a song like HANK SR did, awsome talent.

  15. LillithCarmichael on May 30, 2022 at 7:19 pm

    For the short time he was actually singing and writing his music he accomplished more than most artist have before or since.

  16. Howard Hirst on May 30, 2022 at 7:23 pm

    good God, this is my life. how old Hank coped with so much pain in his life is way beyond me

  17. michael smith on May 30, 2022 at 7:23 pm

    @Sauerkrautification and still sung the crap out of that thang

  18. Larue Kean on May 30, 2022 at 7:23 pm

    I love that song and the man sang it he is so good one of the very best singer in the world

  19. Randall Hutchcraft on May 30, 2022 at 7:24 pm

    Hanky Williams is my favorite

    great track

  23. Steve Endicott on May 30, 2022 at 7:29 pm

    Should be Rigor Mortis

  24. CrampedGrampy on May 30, 2022 at 7:31 pm

    Man oh man, this sure takes me back to my childhood of the late 1940s and early 1950s. There just isn’t enough time in our lives today to relive those olden times as once we did. It’s so good to revisit them occasionally, glad I have here on this day. Many thanks to the uploader

  25. Howard Hirst on May 30, 2022 at 7:31 pm

    I will never tire of hearing this song

  26. Glenn Johnson on May 30, 2022 at 7:32 pm

    Glenn Johnson Later this year i shall be visiting Hank`s shrine on a tour.It will be emotional as i have been singing his songs for 60 years.Hank never made a bad record and this song is one of my favourites.Thanks for posting all these wonderful performances from the master.

  27. Steve Endicott on May 30, 2022 at 7:35 pm

    This is not Mother’s Best, this is an early morning Red Foley show!

  28. villeneuve maureen on May 30, 2022 at 7:35 pm

    Vive Hank Williams du Québec.

  29. FATWONTON on May 30, 2022 at 7:36 pm

    Hank you’re the god damn coolest SOB ever!

  30. Stiffy Vokes on May 30, 2022 at 7:36 pm

    Say what you like about Hank, but he loved Mother’s Best Flour.

  31. MrBirdlady92 on May 30, 2022 at 7:39 pm

    Check out The Black Keysand Lucero. They’re damned good, maybe not as good as Hank but not many are these days.

  32. Everyone on May 30, 2022 at 7:40 pm

    Ironic when they found him dead he was in rigermourtis state

  33. J. L. Buckley on May 30, 2022 at 7:43 pm

    Ole Hank should never be referred to as Sr. He IS Hank Williams the one, the only and there will never be another.

  34. HoldorFold on May 30, 2022 at 7:44 pm

    Nice one Alan 5 star

  35. txcook on May 30, 2022 at 7:45 pm

    Hank singing a Leon Payne song. It doesn’t get better than that 🙂

  36. Terry Woodworth on May 30, 2022 at 7:45 pm

    The only song writer that you can actually feel the song. No one ,I mean no one does that today. Thank you so much Hank.

  37. hankwilliamsfan1986 on May 30, 2022 at 7:46 pm

    the king of country music

  38. dhgate2 on May 30, 2022 at 7:48 pm

    How great, revealing, to hear Hank speaking informally…possibly hungover…bantering with friends.
    You can see the real guy, as well as the genius.
    Beautiful, bittersweet.

  39. clyde on May 30, 2022 at 7:49 pm

    Hank did sing some of the saddest and best songs ever. The way he sung them made them gifts to us too great for us to ever repay. He left us early in his life, but I can’t help wondering how many others like myself, made it through their own saddest times because his music was there when we needed it most.

  40. jtls8 on May 30, 2022 at 7:49 pm

    One of the most beautiful songs ever sung, BY
    THE GREATEST!

  41. William Pitman on May 30, 2022 at 7:50 pm

    The Greatest Singer/Songwriter of True Country Music who has ever lived. This is the real McCoy.
    His Death was and still is such a sad loss

  42. Randall Hutchcraft on May 30, 2022 at 7:52 pm

    He’s the best reason they call it country music.

  43. michael smith on May 30, 2022 at 7:52 pm

    @Sauerkrautification and still sung the crap out of that thang
    aint nobody no better

  44. Robert Smith on May 30, 2022 at 7:55 pm

    It actually was a WSM radio broadcast show hosted by Red Foley. Not Mother’s Best.

  45. nin2oo1 on May 30, 2022 at 7:56 pm

    Hank could be hungover or stoned out of his mind and still play and sing circles around any of these artist today. All I can say is how many artist do you know that sound exactly the same live as they do on a record? You have all these artist today that sound great on a record but sound like crap live on stage.

  46. John Kroner on May 30, 2022 at 7:56 pm

    where’s rigamortis blues

  47. Mark Langmead on May 30, 2022 at 7:57 pm

    that’s Red Foley

  48. Robert Smith on May 30, 2022 at 7:58 pm

    Actually is was a separate morning radio program hosted by Red Foley on WSM. Not Mother’s Best.

  49. G Pa on May 30, 2022 at 8:00 pm

    The GOAT. Cant wait to hear him, live in the next world.
