Half As Much
The story behind the song
This song, written by Curley Williams, features a distinctive barroom piano solo at its conclusion, a unique element in Hank Williams' recordings. Though Williams himself wasn't initially keen on recording it, he did so at his producer's insistence. It was recorded in 1951, and its release was held back to allow Curley Williams' own version to come out first. Playing this song, you channel a classic country sound with a touch of reluctant charm.
