Hank Williams
Hiram "Hank" Williams (September 17, 1923 – January 1, 1953) was an American singer-songwriter and musician.
Regarded as one of the most significant and influential American singers and songwriters of the 20th century, Williams recorded 35 singles (five released posthumously) that reached the Top 10 of the "Billboard" Country & Western Best Sellers chart, including 11 that ranked number one (three posthumously).
Born in Mount Olive, Butler County, Alabama, Williams relocated to Georgiana with his family, where he met Rufus Payne, an African American blues musician, who gave him guitar lessons in exchange for meals or money.
Payne had a major influence on Williams' later musical style, along with Roy Acuff and Ernest Tubb.
Williams would later relocate to Montgomery, where he began his music career in 1937, when producers at radio station WSFA hired him to perform and host a 15-minute program.
He formed the Drifting Cowboys backup band, which was managed by his mother, and dropped out of school to devote his time to his career.
When several of his band members were conscripted into military service during World War II, Williams had trouble with their replacements, and WSFA terminated his contract because of his alcohol abuse.
Williams eventually married Audrey Sheppard, who was his manager for nearly a decade.
After recording "Never Again" and "Honky Tonkin'" with Sterling Records, he signed a contract with MGM Records.
In 1947, he released "Move It on Over", which became a hit, and also joined the "Louisiana Hayride" radio program.
One year later, he released a cover of "Lovesick Blues" recorded at Herzog Studio in Cincinnati, which carried him into the mainstream of music.
After an initial rejection, Williams joined the Grand Ole Opry.
He was unable to read or notate music to any significant degree.
Among the hits he wrote were "Your Cheatin' HeartHey, Good Lookin'", and "I'm So Lonesome
I Could Cry".
Years of back pain, alcoholism and prescription drug abuse severely compromised his health.
In 1952 he divorced Sheppard and was dismissed by the Grand Ole Opry because of his unreliability and alcohol abuse.
On New Year's Day 1953, he died suddenly while traveling to a concert in Canton, Ohio, at the age of 29.
Despite his short life, Williams is one of the most celebrated and influential popular musicians of the 20th century, especially in regard to country music.
Many artists covered songs Williams wrote and recorded.
He influenced Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bob Dylan, George Jones, Charley Pride, and The Rolling Stones, among others.
Williams was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame (1961), the Songwriters Hall of Fame (1970), and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1987).
The Pulitzer Prize jury in 2010 awarded him a posthumous special citation "for his craftsmanship as a songwriter who expressed universal feelings with poignant simplicity and played a pivotal role in transforming country music into a major musical and cultural force in American life."
Been Down So Long
" Been Down So Long" is a song by the American rock band The Doors.
It appears as the third song on" L.A. Woman", the last studio album that The Doors recorded with lead singer Jim Morrison, who died in July 1971.
It has been called a" take- off" on the album.
Noted as one of the standout tracks on" L.A. Woman" as one of three blues songs, lyrically, the song draws upon themes of depression, liberation, and sexuality.
The title makes reference to the 1928 Furry Lewis song," I Will Turn Your Money Green I been down so long/ It seem like up to me"), and the first verse may have been inspired by Richard Fariña's 1966 novel" Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up to Me" which was about Fariña's college experiences and travels.
It is also considered to be Morrison at his most" mock tough".
Musically," Been Down So Long" is a standard, very conventional blues song, with rambunctious aggression, and of the" old Doors, slow blues" style.
It also features a distinct slide guitar, a rough sound, and a stomping beat.
A live version recorded May 8, 1970 at Cobo Arena in Detroit appears on" The Bright Midnight Sampler"( 2000, Bright Midnight).
It has also been covered by Randy Newman and by Gov't Mule with Doors guitarist Robby Krieger.
I Do Love You (Billy Stewart song)

The song was arranged by Phil Wright.
Stewart re-released the song as a single in 1969 which reached# 94 on the" Billboard" Hot 100.
This song also sounds loosely based around the last 30 seconds of The Impressions song.
" I've Been Trying" from their 1964 album" Keep On Pushing"
O Valencia!
" O Valencia!" is the fifth single by the indie rock band
The Decemberists, and the first released from their fourth studio album," The Crane Wife".
The music was written by The Decemberists and the lyrics by Colin Meloy.
It tells a story of two star- crossed lovers.
The singer falls in love with a person who belongs to an opposing gang.
At the end of the song, the singer's lover jumps in to defend the singer, who is confronting his lover's brother( the singer's" sworn enemy") and is killed by the bullet intended for the singer.
I Will Turn Your Money Green
I Will Turn Your Money Green( sometimes credited as Turn Your Money Green) is an American blues song first recorded in 1928 by the author, Memphis bluesman Furry Lewis.
It was a standard for Lewis' performances, and has been recorded by bands in the British rock scene of the 1960s and 1970s, and also by serious American blues performers.
Richard Fariña's 1966 novel" Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up to Me" took it s title from a line in the song.
The 1971 song" Been Down So Long" by The Doors in turn borrowed the line from the Fariña book.

I've Been Down That Road Before
"I've Been Down That Road Before" is a talking blues song by Hank Williams.
It was released by MGM Records under the name "Luke the Drifter", which was a pseudonym for Hank's recitations.
It was another dose of the sage advice that Luke the Drifter seemed endlessly capable of dispensing - and Hank Williams seemed just as capable of ignoring.
Biographer Colin Escott calls it "perhaps the most directly biographical song he ever wrote, and leaves us guessing at the incidents that inspired it."
He recorded it in Nashville on June 1, 1951 with Fred Rose producing and backing by Jerry Rivers (fiddle), Don Helms (steel guitar), Sammy Pruett (electric guitar), Jack Shook (rhythm guitar), Ernire Newton or "Cedric Rainwater", aka Howard Watts (bass), and possibly Owen Bradley (organ).
