Review about Hank Locklin Hank Locklin Was One of a KInd | Reviewer: Bill Melody
------ About artist/band Hank Locklin
I met Mr. LOcklin in 1970 at "Little" Roy Wiggin's Music Store in Nashville. Mr. Locklin noticed my Consistory Tie Clasp and asked me where I purchased it and could I possible get him one and send it to him. I took it off and presented him with it and we became instant friends. What a great guy he was and what a tremendous super star. What a true pleasure to know him. And I'll never forget him. Bill Melody, WBCB-AM 1490, Levittown, PA.
Please let me know the e.mail address or the postal address of his fan club.I'd like to join same as am a crazy fan of his. I love to hear his songs 24 hrs and never get tired . Also shall be obliged if I could get his mailing address too.
My 9 yr old son wants to start guitar lessons and sing country, my father informed me we are related to Hank and must be in the genes,,,,Any Locklin's out there? Related to the Cobb's & Leveson's of N Fl or Al?
Hanks song "This old house". The story I heard was... Hanks was hunting w/ friends in the woods when a fierce blizzard hit, w/ a massive snowfall which sent them searching for shelter.
In a clearing they saw an old house w/ a lamp light in a window. After knocking and getting no answer, they looked in the window, and saw a dead man lying on the floor.
Later, Hank wrote the song about the old house, which some of them went... "This old house once rang w/ laughter, ect." Please respond, thanks.

------ About the song Why Baby Why performed by Hank Locklin
I think this was one of his greatest sonds, I have listened to Country Music since I was 12 years old and love it still, I also love Bluegrass, Hank wrote some super songs that are still being sung today, but, not like he sang them.
Yhe Most Heart Warming Singer Ever | Reviewer: Arlene
------ About artist/band Hank Locklin
Hank Locklin is my all time favorite singer. His voice is so awesome I can never get his songs out of my head.( Not that I try very hard ). My favorite song is "It's A Little More Like Heaven" My late brother Orval loved him too, in fact, they look enough alike to be brothers. Hank, if you see this, don't ever stop singing, and I'll see you in Heaven.
Your loyal fan,
Arlene
When I was in high school back in the 50's, A Girl I knew told me that She was Margaret Locklin; Mr Hank Locklin's Daughter. Is this true? the High School was "Houston Vocational Technical" in Houston, Texas.
