| Right you are Jack. Hank was a great player and friend. He could get amazing C6th stuff from his E9th tuning with 10 strings, 3 pedals and 3 knee-levers. He worked for Jim Ed for quite a while. |

For over 20 years I’ve played a lot with local bass player and singer Jerry Braswell. Jerry was in Nashville for years and has a strong resume. He was in Jim Ed’s band, I believe, with Hank. Or maybe it was with Porter. He speaks of Hank often and says he was was the best musician he worked with in his Nashville time. And Hank had a Juilliard degree according to Jerry.

Thanks everyone for identifying Hank Corwin!
I've seen his name on record albums, and was impressed with his playing--but had no idea what he looked like.

Hank used to kid about a Jewish kid from Brooklyn playing country music in Nashville.
I learned a lot from Hank, picking his brains, especially C6th. |
