''Timeless" was also awarded the Grammy for Best Country Album. Dion DiMucci, famous for his doo-wop songs "The Wanderer" and "Runaround Sue", named Hank Williams as his most influential artist and covered "Honky Tonk Blues" on his Grammy-nominated album "Bronx in Blue" in 2007. Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis teamed up on the 1971 album ''Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis Sing Hank Williams'', which featured covers of 12 of Williams's greatest hits. British alternative band The The recorded a full album of Williams cover versions in 1994 entitled ''Hanky Panky''. This was intended to be the first in a series of tribute albums by The The covering the work of influential songwriters and musicians, but no further albums were recorded or released. Irish singer/songwriter Bap Kennedy covered 11 songs by Hank Williams on his 1999 album ''Hillbilly Shakespeare''. His follow-up album ''Lonely Street'', released in 2000, contains numerous references to Hank Williams, and on the sleeve notes, Kennedy acknowledges that the songs were inspired by Williams, as well as Elvis Presley. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of tributes to Hank Williams」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
