How can we purchase the complete collection of material being released this year without shopping around to four or five different sources and winding up with a lot of duplicate material?
THANKS,

Hi Don, you should purchase the 3 CD set which contains all 54 tracks.
You can buy it all major retailers. Here is the Amazon link if you prefer to buy online:
http://www.amazon.com/Unreleased-Recordings-Hank-Williams/dp/B001E4437W
I think Don wants to know if and when he will be able to get complete programs uncut and unedited.
Please note that next two Hank releases (the second and third box set) release dates are not decided just yet.
We will advise as soon as we schedule.
Thanks Don!
Hi Colin
When will the Barjan distributed 12 track gospel version with the alternate I'll Fly Away' which is different than the 3 cd version be available at truck stops,and what will it's title be?
Thanks,

Hi Chris, the Barjan version is out tomorrow 10/28.
The title for the Barjan version is Hank Williams The Unreleased Recordings; with the 12 tracks as you mentioned.
Hi again Colin,
I have read that Hank recorded 72 Mother's Best programs.
Have they all been located for this 3 year project,and if not,how many are missing and which programs have not been found?
Thanks much,

Hi Chris, please take a look at this entry below and let me know if you still have any questions. Thanks.
