Tom T Hall - In Search Of A Song /The Rhymer And Other Five And Dimers. CD. (Hux Records - HUXO71) Tom T. Hall became known as ‘the Storyteller’ for his brilliantly realised tales of small-town America. His songs are three-minute snapshots of ordinary people’s lives, written with exceptional wit, insight and humanity. Many musicians have covered his songs (most notably Jeannie C. Riley with the 1968 hit, ‘Harper Valley P.T.A.’) - and he also has racked up several solo hits. Between 1971 and 1976, he had six number one Country hits, including his classic, ‘The Year That Clayton Delaney Died’, which is included here.This CD pairs two of his best albums: 1971’s In Search Of A Song (rightly regarded as his masterpiece), and The Rhymer And Other Five And Dimers from 1973. Both of these LPs are now released here on CD for the first time.

Tom T Hall - We All Got Together And… / The Storyteller. CD. (Hux Records - HUX091) A classic style country singer songwriter who has written songs for Johnny Cash, Loretta Lynn, Waylon Jennings and Alan Jackson, he began his life as a journalist. This tied up with his fascination with American literature perhaps best explains his cerebral but concise lyrical abilities. This is a two fer one, bringing together a duo of albums from '72. Arguably an early peak in his career, they are remastered and reissued for the first time on CD here.
