Kurz-Bio:
Der Country-Sänger Hank Thompson wurde am 3. September 1925 in Waco, Texas, als Henry William Thompson geboren und verstarb am 6. November 2007 in Fort Worth, Texas, an Lungenkrebs. Sein erstes Instrument war die Mundharmonika. Da er aber von den singenden Cowboys in den B-Movies so begeistert war sparte er sich Geld zusammen, um sich eine billige Gitarre zu kaufen. Bei seinen Auftritten imitierte er diese "Cowboys". Nach der Ableistung seines Militärdienstes fing er an auch selbst Songs zu schreiben die er dann bei seinen Auftritten vortrug. Tex Ritter hörte ihn im Radio und holte ihn 1947 zu CAPITOL, wo seine sehr lange Musik-Karriere begann.
