Description
What the world has been waiting for - the first ever Double Album exclusively of Waltzes by Hank Wangford and his band The Lost Cowboys. A 2 CD set for the price of 1. Hank Wangford has always loved and been fascinated by the waltz and its unique circular spinning rhythm. When the Waltz arrived in England it was vilified as a scandalously wicked filthy and dangerous dance. Hank was born in a Nazi-owned stately home next door to the ballroom where the Waltz was first danced in Regency society. Hank maintains the Waltz is the difference between Rock 'n Roll and Country music. While Country is full of Waltzes and its saddest songs are often in 3/4 time Waltzes are almost non-existent in Rock. Hank loves the Waltz and loves the saddest songs in Country. Put the two together and a Double album of Waltzes is the only way out.
