Album

Family Tradition is the twenty-ninth studio album released by country music artist Hank Williams, Jr. It was released in April 1979 by Curb Records, his third studio album for the label. Family Tradition was a significant success, both critically and commercially for Williams. It peaked at number 3 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart, making it Williams' first Top 5 album since 1969's Live at Cobo Hall. Four of the ten tracks were released as singles, the first single being I Fought the Law. The Watson in question is indeed Doc Watson, and while this huge presence in American folk music dominates the proceedings like the Jolly Green Giant looking out over the vegetable fields, this album completely stands out from that artist's discography. Listeners who find Doc Watson's recordings a trifle on the slick side will want to give this collection a listen.

Doc Watson Tradition. The importance of kinship to Doc Watson's music cannot be overestimated. He learned everything about the guitar from the records his parents owned and the playing of his nearby relatives, one of whom, Gaither Carlton, is featured on this collection, a superb companion piece to the early Folkways album The Watson Family. These are songs Watson played and sang his whole life, and it's a joy to hear him with his wife and sons. Stand outs include the mysterious Am I Born to Die, Omie Wise, Little Maggie, and F
