About This Album
Mercury's collection of Hank Williams' spirituals, I Saw the Light, ups the ante of the previous Polydor collection of the same title by offering up four bonus tracks and liner notes by historian Colin Escott, who authored what is considered the most exhaustive biography of Williams. Although the songs on this set aren't as well known as the many classics penned by Williams, every track presented here is up to par with the greatness of Williams' legacy and should be considered an important annex to his secular music, as well as a fine example of the canon of country gospel. ~ Gregory McIntosh, All Music Guide
