Hank grew up in Pontiac, Michigan (a couple of town away from where I live), before he moved away and left his soon-to-be-famous brothers Elvin and Thad behind. God bless him, he's still touring and pounding on the 88's, although younger brothers Thad and Elvin have passed on. Hank was also just elected to the DownBeat Hall Of Fame this past month. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUWZzj0TU 1s   spence Member Username: Spence Post Number: 3298 Registered: 05-2005 Posted on Friday, August 07, 2009 - 10:31 pm:    yeah, yeah yeah
