I Witness Life / 100 Children

Perhaps the most innovative songwriter in country music, Tom T. Hall brought the narrative drive of folk music to country. They called him 'The Singing Storyteller' back in the Seventies, and even after his own incredible hit streak (more than 50 hits over 20 years) ended, he continued to write hit songs for Alan Jackson and others. The consensus is that his earliest albums are his best, and we've gathered his first four LPs on two separate CDs. This one contains 2 albums from 1970-1971 contain railroad-track anthems from country balladeer, including the songs 'Hang Them All', 'American The Ugly', 'Ode To Half A Pound Of Ground Round', 'Pinto The Wonder Horse Is Dead', and others. CD includes 24-page booklet.
