1952 HITS ARCHIVE: Jambalaya - Hank Williams

Описание: Jambalaya (On The Bayou) (Williams) by Hank Williams with his Drifting Cowboys

Legendary though he may be, the traditional hardcore country arrangements of Hank’s recordings achieved only limited exposure and acceptance among the mainstream pop music market of the early 1950s. Of course a number of his songs did become major hits for non-country artists. Jo Stafford’s version of “Jambalaya” was among her top-selling singles, and Hank’s original also registered on both the sales and juke box pop charts that year.
