Hank Williams, Sr.’s birthday was last week, September 17 to be exact.
Paul decided to film a cover of one of his songs in honor of the special day. You might remember last year he did one of Hank’s tear-jerkers “A Picture from Life’s Other Side.”
Although the words in the one Paul chose to do this year are also sad, the song is lively and jumps along. Paul’s flat top picking really shines on the peppy number. He got Chatter to play rhythm along with him and I think it turned out great even though they didn’t even practice it.
I hope you enjoyed the song as much as I do! You can tell by the laughter at the end Paul and Chatter had a lot of fun doing it.

Yep, that’s a good job, peppy all the way through. Thanks, it brightens my morning.
That is some excellent guitar picking! Paul is always good but Corie is sneaking up on him in this selection. He better look out is all I’ve got to say. That little run she does is pretty slick! One thing I noticed though. Her guitar has sort of a buzz on the A string. Not a squeak. More like a fret buzz. Maybe its new strings. Maybe it’s just me. It don’t sound bad, it’s just there.
Holy cow – tear it up, Paul!
Great singing and picking! My Paul looks like his Dad!!
Always look forward to the Sunday song. It never disappoints. Especially like the ones I had forgotten about. Great song by a great man.
