    Veteran singer/songwriter/musician Durwood Haddock whose career dates back to the golden age of country music releases his fifth album with the unique title HANKS A LOT.  Durwood reaches back to that golden era in which he most certainly is familiar performs  12 of his favorite HANK songs by HANK
WILLIAMS, HANK SNOW, HANK THOMPSON and HANK LOCKLIN.   These are songs that Durwood learned when he was barely a teenager and later performed on radio, in honky tonks & dance halls in Texas before he was twenty.Durwood’s  career as a vocalist never reached the brass ring status, but his writing most certainly did.  In l954 the first song he
wrote with Eddie Miller & recorded on 4 Star Records titled THERE SHE GOES didn’t result in Durwood becoming a house hold name as an artist, but CARL SMITH’S recording, a number three chart the following year in l955, started a whole new career  for Durwood as a song writer.  Later the song was recorded by PATSY CLINE(There He Goes) and eventually sold in the millions in
THE PATSY CLINE COLLECTION in l991.   In l980 it was featured in the Oscar winningmovie,COAMINER’S DAUGTHER the life story of Loretta Lynn an ater the movie THE HEART IS DECEITFUL ABOVE ALL THINGS starring ASIA ARGENTO & PETER FONDA.  To date the song has been recorded over 150 times by
various artists including BUDDY GRECO, JERRY WALLACE, SAMMI SMITH, SCISSY SPACEK, K.D. LANG & ERNEST TUBB  to name only a few.  While THERE SHE GOES has been the more successful song, Durwood has had several others
recorded by a stellar cast of country & pop music notables over the past half century
Be assured, when you put HANKS A LOT on the player, Durwood will take you on a musical trip back to the “Golden Age of  Music".

Honky Tonk Crazy (And Other Love Songs) -
Durwood Haddock
$
11.85    
 
 
2006 release and his  third.    With a co-write on the '50s country hit "There She Goes," --  and with  numerous road houses, recording sessions, and radio programs  to his  credit -- Durwood
Haddock was right there in the hot crucible of honky  tonk, long before it went all sepia-toned. But to have the old  master  still kicking around in 2007 could be conceived as little more  than a  curiosity or stab at nostalgia, were it not for the quality of  Honky  Tonk Crazy (And Other Love Songs). The album takes a real  stripped-down  approach toward arrangement and instrumentation, with
acoustic guitar  and Haddock's big sorrowful voice out front and light  washes of violin,  occasional piano plunks, and the rare electric-guitar twang fleshing out  the more subtle hues. One has to wonder where  Haddock has been hiding  these 13 originals, for most neo-honky tonkers  would give their eyeteeth  for just one of these nuggets. Haddock, here  at 72, proves himself to  still be a top-notch purveyor of traditional  country music. These are  deeply hollowed-out and comfortable tracks,  with Haddock's careworn,  unpretentious vocal delivery (which is  somewhere in the neighborhood of  Merle Haggard's) leading you through a land of old taverns, heartache,  and hill towns that he knows all too well. There really isn't a loser in  the bunch, but highlights include  "You Can Count on Me (If You Can't  Count Too High)," "(While the World  Turns) Bluer Than Blue," and "Last  Night I Really Had a Bawl." This is  unabashedly tear-in-your beer stuff,  but the relatively lo-fi  atmosphere and the sui
generis aura of Haddock  himself add something  stirring and nearly indescribable, though the  word "real" certainly  starts arriving at it. ~ Erik Hage, All Music  Guide.  *************Country the way it should be with nick, nick fiddles, steel  guitar, electric lead, acoustic lead, piano, rhythm guitar, harmonica,  bass, drums and harmony vocals.  All new songs. 
TRACKS: I  CAN'T DROWN MY SORROWS(You've Taught'em How To Swim)
YOU  CAN COUNT  ON ME(If You Can't Count Too High)
WE MADE TOO MANY  MEMORIES
SWEET TALKIN'
I'M TIRED OF WAITIN' 'ROUND(Til You Get  Around To  Me)
BABY ONE MORE TIME
THE WORLD TURNS BLUER THAN  BLUE
THAT  MAKE LOVE TO ME LOOK(In Your Eyes)
HONKY TONK CRAZY(And  Bar Hoppin' Mad)

LAST  NIGHT I REALLY HAD A BAWL
F YOU DON'T USE  IT(You're Gonna Lose  It).
