Hank Williams-First Last And Always Vinyl LP MGM E3928 1961

Step into the foundational roots of honky-tonk and American music with First, Last and Always by the immortal Hank Williams (with His Drifting Cowboys). Released in 1961 by MGM Records (E3928), this essential posthumous collection gathers pivotal early recordings, hard-to-find singles, and archival tracks that celebrate Williams’s unmatched contribution to country music.

Pressed on 12-inch 33 RPM vinyl, this release captures Hank’s high, lonesome vocal twang backed by crying pedal steel guitar, driving acoustic rhythm, and traditional fiddle work. Mastered with vintage analog warmth, these recordings capture the heart, heartbreak, and poetic simplicity that defined Williams’s short yet legendary career.

Tracklist Highlights:

• Side 1: First, Last and Always; Pan American; No One Will Ever Know; Wealth Won’t Save Your Soul; Help Me Understand; Mind Your Own Business

• Side 2: Honky Tonkin’, Something Got Hold Of My Heart, Everything’s Okay, My Sweet Love Ain’t Around, I Just Don’t Like This Kind of Living, These Men With Broken Hearts

Housed in its original vintage MGM picture sleeve featuring classic historic artwork and liner notes, this LP is a mandatory cornerstone for Hank Williams completists, traditional honky-tonk archivists, and vintage vinyl collectors.
