Hank Thompson: The Pathways Of My Life 1966-86 (8-CD Deluxe Box Set)

8-CD Box-Set (LP-size) with 128-page hardcover book, 246 tracks. Total playing time approx. 673 mns.

This box set includes all his post-Capitol recordings for Warner Brothers, Dot, ABC, Churchill, and MCA/Dot during the twenty year period from 1966 through 1986.
On 8 CDs you find all the hits, along with every album track, and dozens of rarities and overlooked gems that have never been available on CD before now.
In addition to the music, this collection comes with a hardcover book featuring a complete discography of Hank's recordings from the era, dozens of photos from his personal scrapbooks, and an in-depth essay by Scott B. Bomar.

This second Bear Family box set of Hank Thompson's studio recordings picks up where the previous collection ended and includes all his post-Capitol recordings for Warner Bros., Dot, ABC, Churchill, and MCA/Dot during the twenty year period from 1966 through 1986. It was an era when Hank would experiment with new sounds while repeatedly returning to the unparalleled brand of honky-tonk infused western swing that made him a legend.

If one were to completely ignore the achievements of his classic years on Capitol Records and only consider his career from 1966 onward, Hank Thompson would still be regarded as a major country music success story. He placed twelve LPs on the country album chart during this era, including three in the top 20. Additionally, he racked up thirty charting singles, including the top 20 hits Where Is The Circus, He's Got A Way With Women, On Tap, In The Can, Or In The Bottle, Smoky The Bar, Next Time I Fall In Love (I Won't), The Mark Of A Heel, I've Come Awful Close, Cab Driver, The Older The Violin, The Sweeter The Music, and Who Left The Door To Heaven Open.

This 8-CD collection features all the hits, along with every album track, and dozens of rarities and overlooked gems that have never been available on CD before now. Included are complete theme albums such as Hank's tributes to The Mills Brothers and Nat 'King' Cole, as well as his album of songs about Oklahoma, and the instrumental recordings he made with his band, the incomparable Brazos Valley Boys. Also included are more than twenty titles that have never been released in any format, including an album's worth of excellent truck driving songs that were inexplicably shelved until the release of this set.

In addition to the music, this collection comes with a hardcover book featuring a complete discography of Hank's recordings from the era, dozens of photos from his personal scrapbooks, and an in-depth essay by Scott B. Bomar drawn from nearly twenty new interviews with those closest to Hank, and detailing the evolution of a legacy artist finding his place in a changing country music marketplace while continually reasserting the magic of the Thompson touch.

Customer evaluation for "The Pathways Of My Life 1966-86 (8-CD Deluxe Box Set)"

From: Keith McRobert On: 8 Oct 2020

Great box set of real country music.

Even better than Hank's earlier box set in my opinion. Greater variety with more emphasis on honky tonk & less on western swing. Hours of great listening.

From: Redecker On: 13 Mar 2014

Ultimately, this is of course a serious investment to make to an artist.
Country Music People 12/13 Duncan Warwick

From: Redecker On: 13 Mar 2014

Eine lohnenswerte Box für Liebhaber echter Countrymusic.
No Fences # 62 Harald Harland

From: Redecker On: 13 Mar 2014

Gewohnt Bear-Family-hochklassig auch das voluminöse Hardcover-Begleitbuch der Box im LP-Format.
Good Times 1/14 Ullrich Schuster

From: Redecker On: 13 Mar 2014

Hank Thompson was one of the greats of country music. This second Bear Family box set amply illustrates that the quality of his music was high throughout his long and successful career. Thank you, Bear Family.
